- Korea: April 4th, 2016
- North America: July 6th, 2016
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 system has been changed slightly:
- 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 : 0 ~ 549,990
- There is no D– grade.
- When using the Screen filter option, if a chart ends with Freeze Arrows, the filter now disappears at the end of the arrows instead of at the start.
- Successfully clearing a Shock Arrow now has the O.K. judgement and the combo increase appear immediately instead of being delayed a half-beat. (This may indicate that the timing windows on Shock Arrows have been changed, but this is not confirmed.)
- The music select screen now resembles that of the SOUND VOLTEX series.
- Sorting by Difficulty 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" was removed as a playable character.
- VICTORY CONCENT returns as a playable character, albeit only being able to appear at random.
- The Butterfly SPECIAL ARROW option has been removed.
- The 0.75x Speed option has been added.
- The WAVE option is now affected by Speed options instead of ignoring them.
- 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 from green to 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.
- First arcade DanceDanceRevolution title officially released in North America since DanceDanceRevolution X2.
- This is the first ever North American DanceDanceRevolution release to officially support eAMUSEMENT.
- The North American version has a new marquee currently 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, transliterate, or romanize 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.
- 8 licensed western pop songs were added to coincide with the game's North American release (July 7th, 2016 in Japan; July 6th, 2016 in North America).
- This marks the first appearance of Billboard Hot 100 songs since DanceDanceRevolution X2.
- 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.
- 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.
- From June 1st, 2017, the Level of the chart being played is shown during gameplay.
- This update also blocked CHALLENGE-only charts from being shown when players do not use an eAMUSEMENT PASS.
- First arcade DanceDanceRevolution title since DanceDanceRevolution X to utilize more than 3 labeling colors to denote special songs on the Music Select screen.
- In this case, white represents default songs, yellow represents unlocked songs, green represents songs unlockable via EXTRA SAVIOR, purple represents songs unlockable from the NEW Generation 流星拡散フェスタ2016 event, red represents an EXTRA EXCLUSIVE song.
- New songs: 76 (Asia), 70 (North America)
- Total songs: 738 (Asia), 724 (North America)

Unlockable Songs
EXTRA STAGE
The Result Star system introduced in DanceDanceRevolution X3 vs 2ndMIX was carried over, including some changes introduced in DanceDanceRevolution (2014) and some changes of its own. As usual, during EXTRA STAGE, the LIFE GAUGE modifier is restricted to LIFE4. As in DanceDanceRevolution (2014), Result Stars and EXTRA STAGE are only available during Premium Play, and both players' Result Stars are combined in VERSUS PLAY.
Result Stars are now always yellow instead of different colors, and their requirements were changed very slightly to match the new grade system:
| Star(s) | Requirement |
|---|---|
| ★★★ | For attaining the grade AAA. |
| ★★ | For attaining the grade AA-, AA, or AA+. |
| ★ | For attaining any other grade except E. |
| ★ | For a Full Combo. |
| ★ | For playing with LIFE4 or RISKY modifier, even if the player fails the song. |
The Daily Star bonus obtained after the first play of the day is now gone.
Prior to June 13th, 2016, the EXTRA STAGE-specific song was New Century.
EXTRA EXCLUSIVE
Starting on June 13th, 2016, the EXTRA STAGE system was expanded. Signaling this, players who unlock EXTRA STAGE now see a short animation depicting RINON and the text "TRY EXTRA STAGE Level 1".
Instead of EXTRA STAGE-specific songs appearing in the DDR A folder, they now appear in a special EXTRA EXCLUSIVE folder. Selecting one of these songs causes "EXTRA EXCLUSIVE" to appear at the beginning of the stage instead of "EXTRA STAGE", while the announcer still shouts "Extra Stage!".
A new mechanic is added to make unlocking EXTRA STAGE easier and also access more EXTRA EXCLUSIVE songs. All players now have a HEAT POWER gauge depicting RINON, where the gauge begins empty and can fill up to 7 bars. At the end of each round, even if a player is not on Premium Play and even if the player fails that round, their HEAT POWER gauge will increase by one bar. (This effectively replaces the Daily Star bonus from previous DDR games.)
Once the gauge reaches 3 bars, RINON powers up and the player advances to EXTRA STAGE Level 2. This makes a new song accessible in the EXTRA EXCLUSIVE folder and also automatically gives the player 3 extra Result Stars whenever their HEAT POWER increases. This means that every round played while at EXTRA STAGE Level 2 only requires earning 6 Result Stars to advance to EXTRA STAGE. Once the gauge reaches 7 bars, RINON powers up again and the player advances to EXTRA STAGE Level 3, which gives the player 9 extra Result Stars whenever their HEAT POWER increases. This means that every round played (on Premium Play) while at EXTRA STAGE Level 3 will always advance to EXTRA STAGE. RINON performs a forced cooldown during the eAMUSEMENT maintenance window (early in the morning of the time zone the machine is set to), emptying the HEAT POWER gauge. This effectively makes HEAT POWER a measure of how many times the player has played that day.
EXTRA EXCLUSIVE LEVELs
Similar to previous games' EXTRA STAGE setups, over time, new songs are unveiled for EXTRA STAGE while old EXTRA STAGE-specific songs are downgraded to be no longer exclusive to EXTRA STAGE. Unlike previous games, the addition of new songs uses the HEAT POWER system, and old songs are not automatically downgraded below FINAL STAGE.
When a previously EXTRA STAGE-specific song is downgraded to FINAL STAGE level, it becomes playable even during non-Premium Play mode.
A list of the songs exclusive to FINAL STAGE or a high enough EXTRA STAGE Level at a given date is detailed below:

EXTRA SAVIOR
This event also started on June 13th, 2016. Unlike EXTRA EXCLUSIVE, playing EXTRA SAVIOR songs may unlock them for normal play, but only if the player is on Premium Play mode.
After playing a song on a specific difficulty level, progress through the chart accumulates. If the summed progress of all of your attempts reaches 100% (or if you clear the song), then that chart, and all difficulties under it, will be unlocked for normal play. For example, clearing a song on DIFFICULT will unlock the DIFFICULT, BASIC, and BEGINNER charts. Also for example, failing a chart 70% in, and then failing it again 40% in, will also unlock the chart.
As a bonus, if the player attempts an EXTRA SAVIOR song while on EXTRA STAGE Level 3, the progress gauge will automatically become 100% afterward, even if the song is failed.
Using chart-altering modifiers (e.g. CUT, disabling Freeze arrows) will decrease the amount of progress the player is able to make toward unlocking the song accordingly. Single and Double charts for a song must be unlocked separately.
For songs with CHALLENGE charts (such as IX and JOMANDA), you must first unlock the EXPERT chart before you can unlock the CHALLENGE chart.
NEW Generation 流星拡散フェスタ2016 charts must be unlocked one at a time, from BASIC to EXPERT. Charts for Triple Counter are only available after having unlocked the corresponding charts of the other five songs.
The songs from these past events can be unlocked:
- 熱闘！BEMANIスタジアム
- 発見！よみがえったBEMANI遺跡
- 怪盗BisCoの予告状！！
- BEMANI SUMMER DIARY 2015
- POSSESSION (EDP Live Mix)
- Previous EXTRA ATTACK songs Poochie and この青空の下で.

Prior to December 1st, 2016, for the NEW Generation 流星拡散フェスタ2016 songs, you needed to have played one of the songs first in beatmania IIDX 23 copula, beatmania IIDX 24 SINOBUZ, jubeat Qubell, or SOUND VOLTEX III GRAVITY WARS to unlock the songs in EXTRA SAVIOR. Only Angelic Jelly was unlockable by itself. Since the event has concluded, all songs are available in EXTRA SAVIOR.
BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE
This event started on August 8th, 2016. The goal of this event is to get a pixel BABY-LON through six worlds. Clearing each world requires climbing to the top of a staircase, with steps earned after every song depending on the player's grade:
- AAA: 12
- AA: 11
- A: 10
- B: 9
- C: 8
- D: 7
- E/fail: 6
In addition, there are 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.
Upon reaching the top of a staircase, the player unlocks a new song and BABY-LON begins the next world at the bottom of that world's staircase. As a result, 'extra' steps earned at the end of a world are lost and not carried over.
Each song/world 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
The event concludes after unlocking Dancer in the flare. The minimum number of credits needed to complete the event in one day is 6 for Premium Play and 8 for non-Premium Play.
Songs are listed in unlock order.

RINON'S ADVENTURE
This event started on April 27th, 2017. The player must complete BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE to begin this event.
Similar to BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE, the (initial) goal of this event is to get a pixel RINON through three worlds by climbing to the top of each world's staircase. Unlike BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE, the player can only earn steps after the EXTRA STAGE (therefore, this event is only available during Premium Play). The number of steps earned for grade are the same as in BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE, but the combo and first-time play bonuses do not apply.
Upon reaching the top of a staircase, the player unlocks a previously-EXTRA EXCLUSIVE song for normal play (including non-Premium Play mode) and also unlocks that song's CHALLENGE chart. As in BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE, RINON then begins the next world at the bottom of that world's staircase, and 'extra' steps earned at the end of a world are not carried over. Songs are unlocked in the order they were first revealed as EXTRA EXCLUSIVEs.
In the first RINON'S ADVENTURE event, only the first three EXTRA EXCLUSIVE songs are available for normal play unlock, and each world (Worlds 1 through 3) requires 35 steps to climb to the top. This requires a minimum of 3 credits per world or 9 credits in total.
On June 1st, 2017, RINON'S ADVENTURE II began and is accessible for players who have completed the first RINON'S ADVENTURE. Worlds 4 through 6 are now accessible, and each requires 82 steps to unlock. This requires a minimum of 7 credits per world or 21 credits in total (30 since the beginning of RINON'S ADVENTURE).
On July 13th, 2017, RINON'S ADVENTURE III began and is accessible for players who have completed RINON'S ADVENTURE II. Worlds 7 through 10 are now accessible, and each requires 105 steps to unlock. This requires a minimum of 9 credits per world or 36 credits in total (66 since the beginning of RINON'S ADVENTURE). After this, the player will have unlocked all 10 previously-EXTRA EXCLUSIVE songs for normal play along with their 10 CHALLENGE charts.
When the player first completes World 9 (Neutrino) and advances to the beginning of World 10 (Cosy Catastrophe), an additional forward-pointing arrow after World 10 hints at something further to unlock. A portion of an icon after Cosy Catastrophe's jacket is also visible, resembling the purple halo behind "The Dark One" (as seen during the cutscene after EGOISM 440, during DanceDanceRevolution (2014)'s Replicant D-ignition event).
Sure enough, once the player completes World 10, a World 11 is revealed to be accessible. (Due to a glitch, prior to the August 8th, 2017 update, the text "World 11" displayed as "World 6" instead.) The steps of World 11's staircase are uniquely colored red, and it takes 156 steps to complete this world (a minimum of 13 credits, or 79 since the beginning of RINON'S ADVENTURE). Upon doing so, a cutscene plays where a large spherical machine-like object appears in the sky in front of RINON, and "The Dark One" descends from the sky in a column of light, giving RINON her purple halo before vanishing. The text "GET ITEM" appears above the purple halo, followed by "UNLOCK LEVEL A" (with the "A" stylized as in the logo of "DanceDanceRevolution A"), signaling that the player has completed the final RINON'S ADVENTURE World.
At this point, no more steps will be earned by playing songs, and the EXTRA EXCLUSIVE folder has been empty for at least the past 13 credits. However, a surprise is waiting for the player the next time they reach EXTRA STAGE Level 3. After the standard "TRY EXTRA STAGE Level 3" animation plays, an image of the spherical object from before will briefly flash with an ominous sound effect on-screen, and the sky in the background will turn red (accompanied by a shaking effect, as if affected by turbulence).
If the player now opens the EXTRA EXCLUSIVE folder, a new song is waiting for her or him - ENDYMION. This makes ENDYMION the EXTRA EXCLUSIVE LEVEL A song (past Cosy Catastrophe, the EXTRA EXCLUSIVE LEVEL 10 song), and the only song to be exclusive to EXTRA STAGE Level 3 specifically (instead of Level 1 or 2). Selecting the song displays a warning that it will drain the HEAT POWER gauge (returning the player to EXTRA STAGE Level 1); thus, it can only be played once every eight credits.
Proceeding with ENDYMION will play a special cutscene (in between the "EXTRA EXCLUSIVE" banner and the song jacket coming up), which depicts the spherical object looming in the foreground before RINON (in her Level 3 form) flies high above the Earth and charges up the purple halo. The words "LEVEL A GALACTIC STRIKE" appear on screen, and then RINON fires a beam of green light down at the spherical object, destroying it.
The player's next goal is to clear ENDYMION on DIFFICULT or higher with at least a AA+ grade. (Prior to August 8th, 2017, the requirement was clearing ENDYMION on EXPERT with an AA+ or higher.) If the player fails ENDYMION, the sky remains red on the results screen as well as the stage summary screen, reverting back to blue only when the game's title screen reappears. If the player picks a song other than ENDYMION for EXTRA STAGE, or passes ENDYMION without meeting the conditions, the results screen reverts back to the blue sky.
If the player clears ENDYMION and meets the conditions, the results screen will show the damaged hull of the spherical object on the ground, with what appears to be an urban skyline at dusk in the background. This signals that the player has unlocked ENCORE EXTRA STAGE; the words "TRY ENCORE EXTRA STAGE !!" will also appear in golden text at the bottom of the screen.
Continuing will immediately proceed to the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE announcement screen (with no cutscene in between), which displays "ATTACK! PERFECT FULL COMBO!!" and automatically picks ACE FOR ACES on DIFFICULT. Any judgment under Perfect will immediately fail the song. As with Over The "Period" from DanceDanceRevolution (2014), it is not possible to use the left and right buttons on the cabinet to change speed modifiers at the start of the song.
ACE FOR ACES has a full-screen background movie, which begins with the previously-shown scene of the destroyed spherical object at dusk, before panning up above the Earth to focus on RINON, whose visor displays "SYSTEM SHUT DOWN". As she falls back to Earth, she catches on fire and resembles a meteor. The screen changes over to YUNI with hands clasped looking at the night sky as the meteor streaks down, then changes over back to RINON. The sky transitions to dawn and clouds obscure the falling RINON, while the screen continues to pan downward until it ends underwater. The final screen change, timed with the last note of the song, shows RINON standing on a beach at the water's edge with the daytime sun in the distance. This concludes the RINON'S ADVENTURE plotline. The results screen of ACE FOR ACES, regardless of pass or fail, goes back to the blue sky background.
If ENDYMION is cleared on EXPERT and then ACE FOR ACES is cleared immediately afterward, ENDYMION's CHALLENGE chart will be unlocked. Single and Double charts must be unlocked separately.
Currently, no player has cleared either of ENDYMION's CHALLENGE charts with an AA+ grade.
