Replicant D-Action is a new EXTRA STAGE model in DanceDanceRevolution X2. By fulfilling certain requirements during the game, you can unlock up to six different songs. Each song is represented by a color, and in each song you fight a clone of DDR character Rinon.
To access Replicant D-action, you must fulfill typical EXTRA STAGE requirements. After fulfilling certain requirements, you will be able to access Replicant D-action as your EXTRA STAGE. '''Once opened, it cannot be exited.''' For each Replicant D-action song you complete with an AA, you'll earn a medal. Note that having on the options CUT ON, FREEZE OFF, and/or JUMP OFF will disqualify you from obtaining the medal, as will playing any of the songs on BEGINNER.

Pass or fail, you'll lose all six medals after playing the song, and you'll need to collect all six medals again to play Valkyrie dimension again.
