EXTRA STAGE
To unlock this song, you must clear a HEAVY chart with a rating of AA or higher on your FINAL STAGE. MAXX UNLIMITED's HEAVY chart (Single or Double depending on current play mode) will then become available as your EXTRA STAGE, with no way to change difficulty or song.
The EXTRA STAGE is on a Pressure life meter; it starts out at maximum health, but will not be replenished. In addition, the x1.5, Dark, and Reverse modifiers are in effect.

The ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE is on a "Sudden Death" life system: If you break your combo or get an N.G. on a Freeze Arrow, you instantly fail the stage. As with the EXTRA STAGE, the x3, Dark, and Reverse modifiers are in effect.
