Release Information

    • 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.)
  • Timing windows have been adjusted to remove the "magic BPMs" problem that existed in previous games:
    • As the Marvelous timing window is exactly 1 frame, and inputs and timing windows are measured by whole numbers of frames only, the resulting roundoff error would cause the Marvelous window to drift back and forth throughout the song, making obtaining a Marvelous Full Combo prohibitively difficult. (For example, a song with a BPM of 160 has a beat every 22.5 frames, so even a frame-perfect player aiming for a Marvelous Full Combo would have to hit some beats 22 frames apart and some beats 23 frames apart, as the Marvelous windows would be anchored on/rounded to whole numbers of frames.) The only exceptions to this problem were songs whose BPMs were evenly divisible by 3600 (such as 225, 200, 180, and 150), which would have an exact whole number of frames in between beats and be immune to the roundoff error problem. Effectively, songs with these "magic BPMs" were the only ones where it was reasonable to obtain a Marvelous Full Combo. This game fixed the problem, though it is unknown whether inputs and timing windows are now measured at the subframe level, or whether the rounding for the timing windows now rounds away from center (which would also fix the problem without having to measure subframe inputs or change how inputs are measured).
  • 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 has been carried over, and is only available on Premium Play. When 9 Result Stars are obtained, EXTRA STAGE will be played. Both players' stars are combined, and progress carries over to the next round if EXTRA STAGE was not reached. Each player can earn a maximum of 3 stars per song.

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. (Cumulative)
For playing with LIFE4 or RISKY modifier. (Cumulative)

As of June 13th, 2016, at the end of each round, RINON's HEAT POWER gauge will increase by one bar. At 3 bars, Level 2 is reached, and the player is granted 3 Result Stars at the end of the round. At the maximum of 7 bars, Level 3 is reached, and the player is granted a full set of 9 Result Stars. The HEAT POWER gauge is reset during the eAMUSEMENT maintenance window. Whichever player has the higher HEAT POWER gauge at the time will determine the EXTRA STAGE Level.

During EXTRA STAGE, the LIFE GAUGE modifier is restricted to LIFE4.

The EXTRA EXCLUSIVE song folder was added on June 13th, 2016. By default, these songs are only playable during EXTRA STAGE with an appropriate level.

EXTRA SAVIOR

The EXTRA SAVIOR song folder was added on June 13th, 2016. These songs, when unlocked during EXTRA STAGE, can thereafter be played during any stage on Premium Play.

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.

Using the modifiers CUT1/CUT2, Jumps OFF, or Freeze OFF will proportionally reduce the amount of progress possible.

Attempting a chart during EXTRA STAGE Level 3 will automatically unlock the chart even if failed.

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:

RINON'S ADVENTURE

This event started on April 27th, 2017, and is only available after completing BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE. RINON'S ADVENTURE II was added on June 1st, 2017, and III was added on July 13th, 2017. This event unlocks EXTRA EXCLUSIVE songs for regular play, along with new CHALLENGE charts.

Like in BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE, RINON will ascend a staircase based on grade earned on a song, but only during EXTRA STAGE. The steps earned for grade are the same, but combo and first-time play bonuses do not apply. Steps required:

  • New Century: 35
  • RISING FIRE HAWK: 35
  • Astrogazer: 35
  • Come to Life: 82
  • Emera: 82
  • Start a New Day: 82
  • Ishtar: 105
  • out of focus: 105
  • Neutrino: 105
  • Cosy Catastrophe: 105

After unlocking Cosy Catastrophe, 156 steps are required to complete the event. This unlocks ENDYMION as an EXTRA STAGE Level 3 song. Selecting it will consume all HEAT POWER, and HEAT POWER is not given at the end of the round. Various cutscenes will play as a result of completing RINON'S ADVENTURE, reaching EXTRA STAGE Level 3, and selecting ENDYMION.

If ENDYMION is cleared on BASIC or higher with at least a AA+ grade, then ENCORE EXTRA STAGE is triggered, playing ACE FOR ACES on the following difficulty levels: BASIC -> BASIC, DIFFICULT -> DIFFICULT, and EXPERT -> DIFFICULT. During ENCORE EXTRA STAGE, any judgment under a Perfect immediately fails the song. It is not possible to use the left and right buttons on the cabinet to change speed modifiers at the start of ACE FOR ACES, and note-removing modifiers are also disabled.

If ENDYMION is cleared on EXPERT, and ACE FOR ACES cleared immediately afterward, then ENDYMION's CHALLENGE chart is unlocked. Single and Double charts must be unlocked separately.

Currently, no player has cleared either of ENDYMION's CHALLENGE charts with a AA+ grade.

Initially, ENDYMION had to be cleared on EXPERT with AA+ or higher to trigger ENCORE EXTRA STAGE. This was relaxed to DIFFICULT in August 9th, 2017, and to BASIC in September 14, 2017.
