Challenge Chance

Some of the written information is yet to be fully confirmed.

The Challenge Chance event (name is currently not confirmed) is a secret unlock system of beatmania IIDX 22 PENDUAL, started on September 24th, 2014. Much like the LIMIT BURST and the Spada†leggendaria events, you need to be able to access the EXTRA STAGE.

Unlock conditions are the same between Single Player and Double Player modes.

The objective of Challenge Chance is to satisfy various requirements in order to open a door, which appears in the result screen. Once the door is open, it's possible to play the secret song. Requirements must be satisfied in different days, as the door requests you to wait for the current Space-Time Phase to switch to a different one after successfully fulfilling a condition.

To begin the event, you have to first trigger the door itself. This must be done in PRESENT Phase, by getting a Full Combo and an AAA rank grade together on chrono diver -fragment- without using RANDOM, regardless of the stage. If done correctly, the door will appear in the result screen. Afterwards, you have to fulfill three secret conditions in order (one for each medal, as shown below the door). These are:

  • In the PRESENT Phase, end a play session by reaching the EXTRA STAGE (clearing it is not necessary).
    • If you triggered the door in the FIRST STAGE, SECOND STAGE or FINAL STAGE, you can satisfy this requirement in the same credit. However, if you triggered the door in the EXTRA STAGE, you must play the successive credit instead to fulfill the condition.
  • In the FUTURE Phase, Hard Clear with an AA rank grade any PENDUAL song chart rated level 11. RANDOM can be used.
  • Unknown (PRESENT Phase).
    • The requirement must be satisfied either before reaching the EXTRA STAGE or during it, in the first credit after the Space-Time Phase changed to the PRESENT one.

NOTE: Failing to fulfill the third requirement will make the door disappear. It will be automatically re-triggered after the FINAL STAGE in the successive credit. The first two requirements must be fulfilled again, however.

今日のイチオシ (Today's Featured Songs)

Every day, on all PENDUAL machines, three songs are marked as "featured". You can see which ones are marked in the Data Entry window or in the songwheel menu. Playing all three of them in a session will grant you 300 bonus Fricos.
