KONAMI Arcade Championship 2012 introduced two new BEMANI series to the competition: DanceEvolution and SOUND VOLTEX, of which the latter would become a KAC staple. KAC2012 also allowed Asian contestants to participate in the competition, though with different rules and format.
 
The qualifier period was held on October 1st to November 4th. At the start of the Qualifying period only a few songs are picked as Qualifying songs but as weeks passed, number of qualifying songs are added gradually. Similar to the last KAC, only few players with the top scores moved on to the Final round.
 
In addition to the Qualifier round, a special division, ''BEMANI Master'' was added, which would award points based on participation of nine BEMANI titles. Up to 700 points can be earned for one division by placing first, and minus 1 point per each placement, all the way down to the 500th place (201). The winner of this special division was [[DOLCE.]].
 
The finals are held on three days from November 23rd to 25th. Similar to the last KAC, the finals are held on two parts, Regional Finals and National Finals, with the exception of SOUND VOLTEX for the Asian region. Six finalists advanced to compete in the National Finals and the winner was determined based on the highest score.
 
In SOUND VOLTEX division, in addition to the finals, a special FLOOR contest was held from September 6th to September 19th whereas artists submit their compositions to participate. The entry deemed best was awarded as Highest Excellence and will be unveiled first on the finals on that day. A total of 12 songs are accepted entries, with one song, [[BlackY]]'s [[Max Burning!!]], being awarded as Highest Excellence song.
