A preliminary announcement movie was released on February 18th, 2015 featuring "The Dark One" and [[RINON]], who is seen fusing six colored orbs into her body. The event started on March 5th, 2015. [[Truare!]] ''must'' be unlocked and cleared first.

== NITRO vials ==
Replicant D-ignition's event is divided into segment. First, you must fill five NITRO (ニトロ) vials. Each NITRO vial corresponds to a new song that becomes playable once that vial is filled:

You can choose which vial to fill at the end of each game session. Filling subsequent vials require more NITRO than the previous filled vial: 4,000 NITRO for the first vial, 6,000 for the 2nd, 8,000 for the 3rd, 10,000 for the 4th, and 12,000 for the 5th. NITRO is obtained by fulfilling various conditions:

=== Orbs ===
Once at least one vial has been filled, the Replicant D-ignition folder will appear during EXTRA STAGE, with the song based on which NITRO vials have been filed. Once the folder is opened, the player is then locked onto the folder until the end of the credit, with RINON as the dancer character. Song previews and BPM are hidden.
Once at least one vial has been filled, the Replicant D-ignition folder will appear during EXTRA STAGE, with the song based on which NITRO vials have been filed. When the cursor is placed on the Replicant D-ignition folder, a low-pitched siren will play. When selected, the game will first display a warning prompt informing about high difficulty songs; once the folder is opened, the player is then locked onto the folder until the end of the credit, and RINON will be forced as the dancer character. Unlike Replicant D-action, this folder can be accessed on VERSUS with at least one player clearing BOSS ON PARADE, but that other player who did not clear the event will retain the chosen character instead of RINON.


As like Replicant D-action, its game background and background music change to a darker mood, while song previews and BPM are hidden. There, the player is presented with songs they have made available.
The next goal is to obtain five orbs (オーブ) by obtaining a AA rank or above on EXPERT on each of the five songs. After acquiring all five orbs, [[EGOISM 440]] will appear as a sixth song in the Replicant D-ignition folder. Playing EGOISM 440 will costs all your songs, and you must get them again to play the song again.


The next goal is to obtain five orbs (オーブ) by obtaining a AA rank or above on EXPERT on each of the five songs. After acquiring all the five orbs, [[EGOISM 440]] will appear as a sixth song in the Replicant D-ignition folder. Playing EGOISM 440 will cost all the five orbs and players must repeat the process again to make the song reappear.
By clearing EGOISM 440 with the same aforementioned condition, the player will play [[MAX.(period)]] as ENCORE EXTRA STAGE based on the difficulty played for EGOISM 440. You will not be able to change any options beforehand, and 1.5x SPEED and Reverse are forced during play, with "The Dark One" set as your dancer.


By clearing EGOISM 440 with the same aforementioned condition, the player will play [[MAX.(period)]] as ENCORE EXTRA STAGE based on the difficulty played for EGOISM 440. A cutscene will play before the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE and will not be able to change any options in-between. 1.5x speed and Reverse are forced during play, and "The Dark One" is set as the character.
The second phase of Replicant D-ignition started on March 26th, 2015, which added MAX.(period) (and its CHALLENGE chart) as an EXTRA STAGE song (if the player clears said song as ENCORE EXTRA STAGE). Similar to EGOISM 440, playing MAX.(period) will cost all five orbs. By obtaining a AA rank or higher on MAX.(period)'s CHALLENGE chart, you will be forced ionto playing [[Over The "Period"]] as the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE at two levels lower than MAX.(period) played on EXTRA STAGE. You'll play the song with no modifiers and speed modifiers, and you ''must'' get a PERFECT FULL COMBO to clear the song; anything less results in instant failure.


The second phase of Replicant D-ignition started on March 26th, 2015, which added MAX.(period) (and its CHALLENGE chart) as an EXTRA STAGE song (if the player clears said song as ENCORE EXTRA STAGE), and similar to EGOISM 440, playing MAX.(period) will cost all the five orbs (now as a darker shade). 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 in the first phase.
As of April 9th, 2015, orbs for the first six Replicant D-ignition songs can be obtained on DIFFICULT, and MAX.(period)'s orb can be obtained on EXPERT. As of May 1st, 2015, orbs for the first six songs can be obtained on BASIC, and MAX.(period)'s orb can be obtained on DIFFICULT. As of July 2nd, 2015, orbs for the first six songs can be obtained on BEGINNER, and MAX.(period)'s orb can be obtained on BASIC.
 
By obtaining a AA rank or higher on MAX.(period)'s CHALLENGE chart, another cutscene will be played and will be forced onto playing [[Over The "Period"]] as ENCORE EXTRA STAGE, on two levels lower than MAX.(period) played on EXTRA STAGE. Note that the player plays without any modifiers and speed modifiers cannot be set as well. As the words "ATTACK PERFECT FULL COMBO!!" are display during the announcement; a PERFECT FULL COMBO is required to clear the stage (getting anything lower than GREAT will trigger an instant stage failure). Like MAX.(period), if the player's character is neither RINON nor "The Dark One", RINON will appear as a backup dancer instead of "The Dark One".
 
=== Updates ===
As of April 9th, 2015, orbs for the first six Replicant D-ignition songs can be obtained on DIFFICULT, and MAX.(period)'s orb can be obtained on EXPERT. 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 an orb for EGOISM 440 on BEGINNER or BASIC. This was fixed on April 14th, 2015.
 
As of May 1st, 2015, orbs for the first six songs can be obtained on BASIC, and MAX.(period)'s orb can be obtained on DIFFICULT.
 
As of July 2nd, 2015, orbs for the first six songs can be obtained on BEGINNER, and MAX.(period)'s orb can be obtained on BASIC. In addition, when Over The “Period” is cleared, the Thank You For Playing screen becomes a picture of RINON walking into a white light with the words "Replicant D-ignition" and "THANK YOU FOR PLAYING" displayed. Should the player re-enter Replicant D-ignition after clearing Over The “Period”, the orbs go back to their first Phase brighter color.


From July 23rd to August 6th, 2015, the amount of NITRO obtained is doubled.
From July 23rd to August 6th, 2015, the amount of NITRO obtained is doubled.


=== Unlocking via EXTRA ATTACK ===
Replicant D-ignition ended on August 6th, 2015. Neither RINON nor "The Dark One" can be unlocked if you did not unlock them during the event. All seven songs were then moved to the ''EXTRA ATTACK'' folder. EGOSIM 440 can only be unlocked after you unlock the first five nitro songs, followed by MAX.(period) and Over The “Period”'s in a similar manner. Once Over The “Period”'s EXPERT chart is unlocked, MAX.(period)'s CHALLENGE chart will be available, and unlocking that reveals EGOISM 440's CHALLENGE chart.
On August 6th, 2015, the Replicant D-ignition event has ended and the folder is no longer accessible and neither RINON nor "The Dark One" are unlockable for those who did not unlock them during the event.  
 
All the seven songs from the folder had moved to the ''EXTRA ATTACK'' folder, thus revamping the unlocking conditions. These conditions are as follows:
* Note that for all the seven songs, only BEGINNER and BASIC charts appear at present. By unlocking BASIC, DIFFICULT will be available and then EXPERT if DIFFICULT is unlocked (CHALLENGE charts had separate unlocking conditions instead).
* The first five NITRO-vial songs which has been filled will appear first.
* EGOISM 440's charts could be unlocked by unlocking the first five songs up to the highest difficulty level unlocked.
* MAX.(period)'s charts could be unlocked by unlocking EGOISM 440's charts up to the highest difficulty level unlocked.
* Over The “Period”'s charts could be unlocked by unlocking MAX.(period)'s charts up to the highest difficulty level unlocked.
* Once Over The “Period”'s EXPERT chart is unlocked, MAX.(period)'s CHALLENGE chart will be available, and unlocking that reveals EGOISM 440's CHALLENGE chart.


As of December 24th, 2015, everything in Replicant D-ignition is automatically unlocked for everyone except Over The “Period”'s CHALLENGE chart, which is an EXTRA STAGE-exclusive. This chart was unlocked by default on [[AC DDR A|DanceDanceRevolution A]].
