Kiniro no Corda 2 f encore (金色のコルダ2 f アンコール, officially called La Corda d'oro 2 f encore with f representing "forte" or "loud" in Italian) is the PSP port of Kiniro no Corda 2 encore. It offers the original game with distinctive alterations. This version of encore was the main Corda IP for celebrating Neoromance's fifteenth anniversary.

Changes

- Date invites can occur after a solo practice session is used near certain main characters. Dates can either be with one or two characters.
- Special events have similar themes as the f ones.
- Total of 20 new images are in the game.
