Clearing MAX.(period) unlocks "The Dark One" as a selectable dancer, and the standard Thank You For Playing screen at the end of a credit is replaced by a picture of "The Dark One" in the background of MAX.(period)'s dance stage with the text "THANK YOU FOR PLAYING" and "NEXT PHASE WILL BE COMING SOON!". | Clearing MAX.(period) unlocks "The Dark One" as a selectable dancer, and the standard Thank You For Playing screen at the end of a credit is replaced by a picture of "The Dark One" in the background of MAX.(period)'s dance stage with the text "THANK YOU FOR PLAYING" and "NEXT PHASE WILL BE COMING SOON!". | ||
==== 2nd Phase ==== | |||
The 2nd Phase of Replicant D-ignition started on March 26th, 2015 (removing the above Thank You For Playing screen). To enter the 2nd Phase, MAX.(period) must be cleared as the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE. Once again, the player is tasked with collecting five orbs, but they now appear a darker color. If the player has 5 orbs, MAX.(period) appears in the folder as an seventh EXTRA STAGE song and a new CHALLENGE chart is accessible. Similar to EGOISM 440 during the 1st Phase, attempting MAX.(period) as the EXTRA STAGE, whether pass or fail, causes all orbs to be lost. Clearing MAX.(period) as the EXTRA STAGE unlocks RINON as a selectable dancer. During this Phase, if the player's character is neither RINON nor "The Dark One", then their character will appear like normal with "The Dark One" appearing as a backup dancer. However, if the player plays EGOISM 440, their character will still be replaced by RINON like in the 1st Phase. | The 2nd Phase of Replicant D-ignition started on March 26th, 2015 (removing the above Thank You For Playing screen).

On April 9th, 2015, the first difficulty downgrade was introduced, lowering all difficulty requirements by 1 level. Thus orbs for the first six Replicant D-ignition songs can be obtained by getting an AA rank or higher on DIFFICULT as well as EXPERT, and the orb for MAX.(period) on EXTRA STAGE can be obtained on EXPERT as well as CHALLENGE. ENCORE EXTRA STAGE difficulties are correspondingly lowered one level, so obtaining EGOISM 440's orb on DIFFICULT will proceed to MAX.(period) on DIFFICULT, and obtaining MAX.(period)'s orb on EXPERT will proceed to Over The "Period" on BASIC. | On April 9th, 2015, the first difficulty downgrade was introduced, lowering all difficulty requirements by 1 level.

''(Due to a bug, if two players were on Versus Play with Player 1 on non-Premium Play and Player 2 on Premium Play, it was possible for Player 1 to obtain an orb for MAX.(period) on BASIC or DIFFICULT and proceed to Over The "Period" on BEGINNER. This was fixed on April 14th, 2015.)'' | ||
On May 1st, 2015, the second difficulty downgrade was introduced. Orbs for the first six songs can now be obtained on BASIC, and MAX.(period)'s orb can be obtained on DIFFICULT leading to Over The “Period” on BEGINNER. However, on Double Play, where BEGINNER is not available, Over The “Period” will be played on BASIC instead. | On May 1st, 2015, the second difficulty downgrade was introduced.

On August 6th, 2015, the Replicant D-ignition event effectively ended, and the Replicant D-ignition folder is no longer accessible; instead, any songs with filled NITRO vials appear in the ''EXTRA ATTACK'' folder. Neither RINON nor "The Dark One" are unlockable for those who did not unlock them during the event. At first, only the BEGINNER and BASIC charts of the five NITRO-vial songs are accessible. To access more charts in EXTRA STAGE, all prerequisites for that chart must be unlocked for normal play via ''EXTRA ATTACK''. For the five NITRO-vial songs, the only prerequisite for a chart is its lower difficulty (so for example, unlocking HAPPY☆LUCKY☆YEAPPY's BASIC chart for normal play makes its DIFFICULT chart accessible on EXTRA STAGE, and so on for EXPERT). | On August 6th, 2015, the Replicant D-ignition event effectively ended, and the Replicant D-ignition folder is no longer accessible; instead, any songs with filled NITRO vials appear in the ''EXTRA ATTACK'' folder.

Unlocking all five BASIC charts gives access to EGOISM 440's BEGINNER and BASIC charts, making this the first time it is playable every credit instead of once per six credits. EGOISM 440's DIFFICULT and EXPERT charts have two prerequisites: its lower difficulty, ''and'' all five charts of the same difficulty for the previous five songs. (For example, to access EGOISM 440's EXPERT chart, the player must unlock EGOISM 440's DIFFICULT chart as well as all five EXPERT charts for the five NITRO-vial songs.) | :Unlocking all five BASIC charts gives access to EGOISM 440's BEGINNER and BASIC charts, making this the first time it is playable every credit instead of once per six credits.
