AC CANNON BALLERS: Difference between revisions

Like previous EXTRA STAGE systems in beatmania IIDX, the sum of difficulty levels, DJ LEVEL, and clear type are the main requirements to unlock a IIDX AIR RACE song for EXTRA STAGE. All the charts are playable from the first day of a IIDX AIR RACE song's appearance. RANDOM cannot be used.

AIR RACE songs are separated in groups. Within a group, a new EXTRA STAGE song appears every 5 weeks. A group consists of three EXTRA STAGE songs plus an ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE. Once the third EXTRA STAGE song appears, it is possible to unlock the group's songs for regular play by clearing their charts (with HARD CLEAR, CLEAR, EASY CLEAR or ASSIST CLEAR gauges, depending on the respective phase).

The conditions to access IIDX AIR RACE change based on the Phase it is in:

* Phase 1:

** NORMAL difficulty: Obtain at least an A rank on three songs that total 24 or more in difficulty by clearing them with the EX-HARD gauge.

** HYPER difficulty: Obtain at least a AA rank on three songs that total 30 or more in difficulty by clearing them with a FULL COMBO.

** ANOTHER difficulty: Obtain at least a AAA rank on three songs that total 34 or more in difficulty by clearing them with a FULL COMBO.

* Phase 2:

** NORMAL difficulty: Obtain at least an A rank on three songs that total 21 or more in difficulty by clearing them with the HARD gauge.

The ''IIDX AIR RACE FINAL LAP'' is available from September 27th, 2018. It requires the ''Gekisou! Cannon racer'' (激走！キャノンレーサー) event to be completed and IIDX AIR RACE song badges under a specific difficulty (depending on which difficulty you want to play the FINAL LAP song on) to be obtained. Once the requirements are satisfied, you have to play an entire credit (including EXTRA STAGE) of IIDX AIR RACE and/or Gekisou! Cannon racer songs in order to unlock the final ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE, by also meeting the aforementioned Phase unlock conditions.
