REFLEC BEAT groovin'!!
The fourth REFLEC BEAT arcade release, announced on 04/24/2014.
Release Information
- Location tests: 05/02/2014 - 05/06/2014.
- Release date: 06/04/2014.
General Information / Changes
- "Refle" (リフレ), a point system similar to beatmania IIDX's DELLARs, is introduced to REFLEC BEAT.
- A fourth difficulty, SPECIAL, was added to REFLEC BEAT.
- According to Qrispy Joybox, SPECIAL is more akin to the CHALLENGE difficulty of DanceDanceRevolution, and doesn't necessarily mean a song's SPECIAL chart is just a harder version of its HARD chart.
- A new object type, Vertical Objects, are introduced to REFLEC BEAT. Unlike the other notes, Vertical Objects don't bounce on the sides, and be either Normal, Long, Chain or TOP notes.
- A new gameplay mode, REFLEC Dojo (リフレク道場), was added. Requires PASELI.
- The existing grading system from limelight and colette has been abolished in favour of a Dan rating. Dan ratings can be acquired through REFLEC Dojo and is similar to beatmania IIDX's Dani Nintei mode.
- A trophy system, similar to beatmania IIDX's Tran Medal system, was implemented.
- All unlocks from the earlier arcade REFLEC BEAT titles are now unlocked by default, except for the following:
- all of the FLOOR INFECTION songs.
- anemone, chaplet, and ZZ from REFLEC BEAT colette -Spring-, which can be purchased from the Reflec Shop for 1000 Refle.

EXTRA ROUND Songs
PASTEL WONDER QUEST
To be updated.
REFLEC Dojo (リフレク道場)
In the REFLEC Dojo (リフレク道場) mode, you play a course of three songs against the CPU. Unlike other BEMANI games, the songs in the course are not fixed, but instead, you have to choose between a few songs that fit the course theme. The HP gauge system is taken from PASTEL WONDER TRAVELER's BOSS BATTLE MODE (REFLEC BEAT colette -All Seasons-).
There are two types of courses, those being Nintei Shiken (認定試験) and Kentei Shiken (検定試験).
Nintei Shiken is REFLEC BEAT's equivalent of beatmania IIDX's Dani Nintei mode. These courses are skill based courses and starts from 5th Kyu to Assitant Instructor (師範代) rank as of 6/6/2014. Upon clearing one of these courses, your profile will be updated with a plaque that correspond to the cleared course. Nintei Shiken courses allows you to select from 3 songs in the 1ST ROUND, and 2 songs from the 2ND ROUND. The 3RD ROUND, however, will always be fixed. The rank you acquire from Nintei Shiken will affect 2 things:
- Rankings affect song selections for the first 2 stages (e.g. players ranked below 7th Kyu will not be able to access level 10+ songs till the FINAL ROUND while players with 8th Kyu and above will be able to select 10+ songs in the 2ND ROUND.)
- Due to the abolition of the grading system from limelight/colette, matchmaking now relies on the player's ranking.
Kentei Shiken are courses based on a theme. For example, the Qrispy Test contains songs written by Qrispy Joybox, the Long Test contains songs which focuses on Long objects and so on. These courses are not strictly skill based, therefore, the charts that are available for selection can range from level 5 to level 10+. As of 6/6/2014, only Kentei Shiken courses contain SPECIAL charts as well as new songs that must be cleared in order for them to be bought in the Reflec Shop.
For more information about the courses, see this BEMANIWiki 2nd page.
Reflec Store
On the Reflec Store, you can purchase songs, SPECIAL charts and avatars with Refle, the point system introduced in REFLEC BEAT groovin'!!.
