General Information / Changes
- Announced at the The 5th KONAMI Arcade Championship finals for DanceDanceRevolution (2014).
- The "A" in the game title is pronounced "Ace", just like the letter A in the deck of playing cards.
- The scoring ratio has changed while keeping the previous scoring system:
- Each Great now gives player 60% of score for Marvelous minus 10 (previously, 50% of score for Marvelous minus 10).
- Each Good now gives player 20% of score for Marvelous minus 10 (previously, 0).
- The grading system has also been changed (except AAA and E):
- Each letter grade now includes a + and –.
- Each letter grade now corresponds to the following ranges:
- AA+ : 950,000 ~ 989,990
- AA : 900,000 ~ 949,990
- AA– : 890,000 ~ 899,990
- A+ : 850,000 ~ 889,990
- A : 800,000 ~ 849,990
- A– : 790,000 ~ 799,990
- B+ : 750,000 ~ 789,990
- B : 700,000 ~ 749,990
- B– : 690,000 ~ 699,990
- C+ : 650,000 ~ 689,990
- C : 600,000 ~ 649,990
- C– : 590,000 ~ 599,990
- D+ : 550,000 ~ 589,990
- D : (Undetermined lower limit) ~ 549,990
- There is no D– grade.
- The music select screen now resembles that of the SOUND VOLTEX series.
- Difficulty sorting style now follows other BEMANI games, with each Level folder containing all difficulties rated with said Level.
- Song folders now sort songs in the following order: songs in Japanese are first, then regular ABC order, and lastly song names that begin with numbers.
- Licenses are also no longer put first in the song folders.
- Options and characters can now be selected via the game's eAMUSEMENT website.
- The Area Browser can also now be done via the eAMUSEMENT website.
- For Japanese cabinets with PASELI enabled, this option is now divided on:
- PASELI-PREMIUM MODE: the original PASELI option available up to DanceDanceRevolution (2014).
- PASELI-STANDARD MODE: uses less points than PREMIUM MODE. This option counts as STANDARD MODE without inserting physical coins.
- A total of 8 songs released during DanceDanceRevolution (2014) were retrospectively moved to the DanceDanceRevolution A folder.
- Included are the 4 licensed songs from the EDM～Exciting★Dance★Matsuri～ event, the 3 KONAMI original songs from the OSB～Winter★Special★Present～ event, and きゅん×きゅんばっきゅん☆LOVE.
- Even for new songs, characters now use the old dance routines introduced back in DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA instead of the new ones introduced in DanceDanceRevolution X.
- Songs that have special choreographies (e.g. Dream Machine) still keep their special choreographies, though.
- Dance Celebration's special choreography was revived as well.
- The song title and artist are now centered rather than left-aligned within their box in gameplay.
- AFRO, YUNI, JENNY, and RAGE have received new outfits, marking the first time characters receive new outfits since DanceDanceRevolution X2
- However, the rest of the characters retain their outfits from DanceDanceRevolution X2.
- Character cut-ins are absent.
- "The Dark One" is no longer playable.
- VICTORY CONCENT returns as a playable character, albeit only being able to appear at random.
- The Butterfly SPECIAL ARROW option has been removed.
- The WAVE option now behaves accordingly with the selected Hi-SPEED multiplier.
- A background dance stage from DanceDanceRevolution X2 that was removed in DanceDanceRevolution X3 VS 2ndMIX has been restored.
- The GROOVE RADAR will now change accordingly when selecting any options that remove steps from the chart.
- When the dance gauge turns red, the player's lane now receives a Danger overlay.
- On widescreen cabinets shipped with DanceDanceRevolution X, the speakers will turn red as well.
- EX SCORE is now always displayed in the results screen.
- The DanceDanceRevolution (2013) EXTRA STAGE boss songs (Monkey Business, Another Phase, Air Heroes, Spanish Snowy Dance, New Generation, and Blew My Mind), DanceDanceRevolution (2013)'s ENJOY LEVEL songs, as well as the 私立BEMANI学園, jubeat・GITADORA・DDRのTriple Journey, and YuniverHills project (ユニバーヒルズproject) songs, are now playable by default, even without an eAMUSEMENT pass.
- The Chinese version CHALLENGE variants introduced in DanceDanceRevolution X2 are no longer playable; their original Japanese versions are used instead when playing.
- All remaining Dancemania licenses that are not remixes of KONAMI original songs were removed from the series on May 30th, 2016, making DanceDanceRevolution A the first core arcade DanceDanceRevoution title to have no traditional Dancemania licenses in it.
- First arcade DanceDanceRevolution title officially released in North America since DanceDanceRevolution X2.
- The North American version has a new marquee used only in that region, other regions continue to use the generic marquee introduced with DanceDanceRevolution (2013) or (2014).
- The North American version is the first release in that region to not translate or transliterate song titles or artists, instead leaving them in Japanese.
- The KAC 2012 licenses from DanceDanceRevolution X3 VS 2ndMIX are not present on the North American version.
- North American players can choose the states in U.S.A. instead of Japan's prefectures.
- First DanceDanceRevolution title to be location tested in Europe since DanceDanceRevolution X2.
- The location test uses the North American build, housed inside a DanceDanceRevolution X prototype cabinet.
- The location test is the longest of any BEMANI game, lasting three months.

Unlockable Songs
BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE
This event started on August 8th, 2016. The event involves DanceDanceRevolution character BABY-LON.
At the end of every song upon starting the event, you will see a pixel BABY-LON climb up stairs to reach the top of a staircase. Upon reaching the top, you'll unlock a song. How many steps you get per song depends on your grade in a song. Distribution is as follows:
- AAA: 12
- AA: 11
- A: 10
- B: 9
- C: 8
- D: 7
- E/fail: 6
In addition, you'll receive bonuses for reaching these goals in a song:
- Get a MAX COMBO of at least 100: 1
- FULL COMBO: 2
- First play of the day: 1
The bonuses for MAX COMBO and FULL COMBO cannot be combined.
Each song in the event requires more steps to reach the top than the last. The step requirements for songs are as follows:
- MAKE A JAM!: 16
- ハピ恋☆らぶりぃタイム!!: 33
- Special One: 41
- Towards the TOWER: 49
- ベィスドロップフリークス: 57
- Dancer in the flare: 65
Note that you once unlock a song, you'll have to restart progress again on the next song. Any leftover steps you have from unlocking a song do not transfer over.
After Dancer in the flare is unlocked, the event ends.
Songs are listed in unlock order.

EXTRA STAGE
The Result Star system introduced in DanceDanceRevolution X3 vs 2ndMIX was carried over and available only when playing PREMIUM MODE. Once again, the LIFE GAUGE modifier is restricted during EXTRA STAGE and this time, it is set to LIFE4. Unlike previous releases, the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE is not present.
Result Stars' requirements were changed:
| Star(s) | Requirement |
|---|---|
| ★★★ | For obtaining the grade AAA. |
| ★★ | For obtaining minimum the grade AA-. |
| ★ | For clearing a song with other rank (except E). |
| ★ | For a Full Combo (except AAA and E). |
| ★ | For playing with LIFE4 or RISKY modifier (except AAA and minimum AA- with Full Combo) |
To access EXTRA STAGE, you must collect 9 result stars. If you fail to collect 9 in a single round, progress carries to the next round.
At the end of every round in a single day of play, you start off at EXTRA STAGE Level 1 and will also see a battery fill up, with a floating RINON above it. Each round you clear in the arcade fills up one bar. Once you fill up three bars, you advance to EXTRA STAGE Level 2, which automatically gives you three Result Stars per round automatically. Fill it up four more times after that to get to EXTRA STAGE Level 3, which automatically gives you a full set of Result Stars, guaranteeing EXTRA STAGE every single round for the rest of the day from your eighth play-through onward. You will permanently obtain any set of charts played in EXTRA SAVIOR from that difficulty and everything below it, regardless of whatever or not you pass it (for example, if you play a song's EXPERT chart, all charts from the EXPERT and downward will unlock).
NOTE: Single and Double charts for a song have to be unlocked separately on EXTRA STAGE.
On June 13th, 2016, DanceDanceRevolution A introduced two special folders called EXTRA EXCLUSIVE and EXTRA SAVIOR, available if the player earns an EXTRA STAGE.
EXTRA EXCLUSIVE songs
Prior to the introduction of EXTRA EXCLUSIVE, New Century was the regular EXTRA STAGE song. As the name implies, these songs cannot be unlocked for play outside of EXTRA STAGE.
As of EXTRA EXCLUSIVE LEVEL 3 (August 10th, 2016), New Century is available to play on the FINAL STAGE, RISING FIRE HAWK is available to play on EXTRA STAGE LEVEL 1, and Astrogazer is available to play on EXTRA STAGE LEVEL 2.

Clear a song on EXTRA STAGE on a specific difficulty level and you unlock all the charts from that difficulty you played downward. (For example, if you clear a song's DIFFICULT chart, you'll unlock all charts from DIFFICULT and below, but EXPERT will still have to be unlocked.) If you're at EXTRA STAGE LEVEL 3, you'll unlock a song's chart on that specific difficulty level regardless if you pass or fail.
While you are free to use options like CUT and the ability to turn off Freeze Arrows and jumps on EXTRA SAVIOR, doing so will disqualify you from unlocking a song, as you will not meet the requirements to fill up the gauge enough to unlock the song.
NOTE #1: Single and Double charts for a song have to be unlocked separately on EXTRA SAVIOR.
NOTE #2: For songs with CHALLENGE charts (such as IX and JOMANDA), you must unlock the EXPERT chart first before you can unlock the CHALLENGE chart.
