The FLOOR INFECTION event is a collaboration that started in SOUND VOLTEX II -infinite infection- and the following other BEMANI titles: beatmania IIDX 22 PENDUAL, DanceDanceRevolution (2014), GITADORA, jubeat saucer, pop'n music Sunny Park, REFLEC BEAT colette -Spring-, MÚSECA, and BeatStream アニムトライヴ. As new versions of these series were released, the event was carried over to the newest titles. Parts 10 to 12 were added as part of GUMI 5th Anniversary party Presented by BEMANI event.
The event allows players to unlock FLOOR contest songs from the SOUND VOLTEX series on other BEMANI games during limited time periods of two weeks each. The FLOOR INFECTION event requires the player to play several rounds of SOUND VOLTEX (usually up to eight) until all crossovers are unlocked in the specified BEMANI game. Each event contains up to three songs and lasts generally two weeks; after the determined time period, crossovers cannot be unlocked anymore. Past FLOOR INFECTION events may be temporarily revived.
Its direct counterpart for unlocking songs in SOUND VOLTEX from other BEMANI games is POLICY BREAK.
Unlock Requirements
In SOUND VOLTEX II -infinite infection-, the infection gauge level increased at a fixed rate, but the percentage was seemingly random. However, the number of plays required was the same: the three songs in the same set were unlocked at 2, 5, and 8 games total, respectively. If more than one set was active but not completed, all of them received the same rate increase.
Starting with SOUND VOLTEX III GRAVITY WARS, the gauge was given a point value. Every game would reward the player with 1000 points, but only one gauge is allowed to be filled. New sets added sometimes have different gauges that have different point requirements. There can also be leftover points that can be used for other active songs.

Trivia
- Much like licenses, FLOOR INFECTION songs in the pop'n music series are not keysounded, nor were given a genre back in pop'n music Sunny Park.
- FLOOR INFECTION songs can never be unlocked by any other means outside of the event itself, as each phase may be revived at any time. The closest exception is the use of Rainbow Tickets in beatmania IIDX 23 copula (and Mystery scrolls in beatmania IIDX 24 SINOBUZ) to access Discloze and Invitation from Mr.C in a play session.
- FLOOR INFECTION support for the North American release of DanceDanceRevolution A was finally added on October 21st, 2016.
- You still need to have met the unlock requirements on a SOUND VOLTEX machine first to play them, though.
- DanceDanceRevolution and ノスタルジア are the only active BEMANI series that have yet to receive their proper exclusive FLOOR INFECTIONs (outside of the special GUMI-themed event for the former).
