  • The slogan is translated in the game's title screen as "Now, it is time to be a hero!"
• Theme: Superheroes.

General Information / Changes

• A new cabinet design, the LIGHTNING MODEL, has been introduced, marking the first major redesign of the beatmania IIDX cabinet since the series' debut.
  • A new high refresh rate monitor has been added, making it the first BEMANI title to run at 120 FPS.
  • Headphone jacks have been added underneath the key panels.
  • The neon lamps and metal cage above the screen have been removed, replaced with plastic panels and RGB LED lighting.
  • Cabinets ship with lighter keys by default, and the turntable resistance can now be adjusted.
  • The effect sliders, LCD marquee and keypads have been replaced with a touchscreen called the Premium Area, located under the screen where the sliders used to be. There are two option menus available, sound and settings.
    • Sound effectively emulates the effect sliders, along with added two new EQ sliders, Lower-Mid EQ and Hi-Mid EQ. Headphone volume can be adjusted here as well.
    • Settings lets you adjust the turntable resistance, as well as the cabinet lighting.
    • A button to bring up the keypad menu is also available from any screen, as the physical keypads have been removed.
  • Due to the removal of the slider panel, the start buttons have been relocated to the upper-left and upper-right of the 1P and 2P keys respectively, and the VEFX and EFFECT buttons are located above the coin slot, as with 5-key beatmania machines.
• BEGINNER and LEGGENDARIA have been added as difficulties at opposite ends; existing † and BEGINNER charts have been merged into the main song listing and are no longer separate.
  • The LEGGENDARIA difficulty won't be shown on songs without said charts, and BEGINNER doesn't show on songs in Double (as BEGINNER charts aren't in Double).
  • BEGINNER charts now appear in the level folders for the first time in STANDARD and all FREE modes.
  • Playing LEGGENDARIA charts still requires V-Discs.
    • The V-Disc cost has been reduced to 4 from 6.
  • The ALL BEGINNER and LEGGENDARIA folders are still present, containing all songs with BEGINNER and LEGGENDARIA charts (without the †/†LEGGENDARIA labels), respectively.
• The clear lamp system has slightly changed:
  • Regular CLEARs are now shown in light blue, regardless of song difficulty.
  • All FAILED lamps are shown in flickering red, regardless of song difficulty.
  • BEGINNER charts can now display any type of clear lamp (including ASSIST, HARD and EX-HARD), rather than only displaying a green EASY CLEAR/FULL COMBO lamp.
• A new feature, NOTES RADAR, has been added, filling a similar purpose to the GROOVE RADAR in the DanceDanceRevolution series. The parameters are:
  • NOTES: average note density.
  • PEAK: highest note density in a single section.
  • SCRATCH: average scratch density.
  • CHARGE: number of (Hell) Charge Notes and Backspin Scratches.
  • CHORD: number of chords in the song.
  • SOF-LAN: number of or severity of BPM changes.
• Along with the NOTES RADAR comes MY NOTES RADAR, similar to the MY GROOVE RADAR from the DanceDanceRevolution series.
• A news ticker has been added to the top left of the song select screen, showing when players achieve things such as a new high score or full combo. However, the information remains untranslated regardless of in-game language selected, and is unavailable in STEP UP.
  • The news ticker can be customized on the website. However, this requires an e-amusement basic subscription.
• The HI-SPEED system has been revised again:
  • CLASSIC HI-SPEED option was added. It behaves like the HI-SPEED system prior to Rootage and ranges from 1 to 4 in increments of 0.5 and from 2 to 4 in increments of 0.25. Requires an e-amusement basic subscription.
  • Rootage's HI-SPEED option now has 20 settings.
  • The FLOATING HI-SPEED adjustments can now be done in increments of 0.25, from 0.5 to 10.
• Timing adjustments can now be done in increments of 0.05.
• A new mode, Eisei Dan (永世段位), has been added exclusively for LIGHTNING MODEL cabinets.
• A new random option, M-RAN, is now available when playing with two players. Both players get the same random, however the 2P side is mirrored.
• Play style selection screen has been removed; now it's only possible to switch between Single and Double play modes by pressing [3] on the keypad.
  • Single and Double modes can now be switched between in CLASS and STEP UP modes, and the SELECT GAME MODE screen.

• In-game text language selection has been added as an option: Korean, English and Japanese are available choices (EFFECT button in ENTRY screen to switch languages).
  • It is also the first beatmania IIDX game translated into English since GOLD's US location test.
    • STEP UP mode, events, Tran Medals, text regarding PASELI-only options (including PREMIUM FREE and DJ VIP PASS GOLD/PLATINUM descriptions), network issues, and shop closures remain untranslated.
• All non-FLOOR INFECTION songs from CANNON BALLERS, Surf on the Light and hidden Rootage songs A Tale Hidden In The Abyss, GIGA THRASH, and グラナダの風, are now playable by default.
• First beatmania IIDX game since their debuts with no DJ Noriken, Kanae Asaba, or USAO songs on the default songlist.
• First beatmania IIDX game since 8th style with no newly composed/arranged song by Ryu☆ on the default songlist.
• In-game currency is CHEER.
• System voices are provided by Yukana and Hideki Tasaka.

SHADOW REBELLION

SHADOW REBELLION is beatmania IIDX 27 HEROIC VERSE's EXTRA STAGE system, introduced on November 14th, 2019. For Japanese version machines, this only appears on PREMIUM START (which requires PASELI).

To be able to access the event folders, the player must collect three Shadow Gems; one can be earned for every credit played, regardless of the mode selected. After the requirement has been met, the folders can be accessed through the standard EXTRA STAGE requirements.

By playing songs under the SHADOW REBELLION folder for the EXTRA STAGE, more Shadow Gems can be earned, which are used to unlock charts for play outside the EXTRA STAGE as well as for additional bonuses.

• One Shadow Gem unlocks the NORMAL chart outside EXTRA STAGE
• Two Shadow Gems unlocks the HYPER chart outside EXTRA STAGE
• Three Shadow Gems unlocks the ANOTHER chart outside EXTRA STAGE
• Five Shadow Gems unlocks a special Q-pro set based on the character of the song in question

More information to be updated.

WEEKLY RANKING

Event page.

The WEEKLY RANKING feature was added to beatmania IIDX 27 HEROIC VERSE on October 30th, 2019. The WEEKLY RANKING song changes every Wednesday at 12:00 noon.

You earn a star (the day after the period for a song ends) if your score in the leaderboards for the featured song's chart is high enough. Note that stars depend on each song's chart on both single and double play, not on the whole song itself, which means you can earn up to six stars per song.

In the songlist menu, a bar shows your WEEKLY RANKING star progress on the featured song's chart; the arrow determines your current position in the leaderboards:

• White star: if the arrow is located in the white section.
• Bronze star: if the arrow is located in the cyan section.
• Silver star: if the arrow is located in the gray section.
• Gold star: if the arrow is located in the yellow section.
• Platinum star: if the arrow is located in the very small blue section (top 10 in the leaderboards).
