GOLDEN LEAGUE A3

GOLDEN LEAGUE A3 started on May 19th, 2022, for 20th anniversary model cabinets only. Please see the A20 page for more information.

New to GOLDEN LEAGUE A3 is the introduction of a scoring system, LEAGUE SCORE, which is determined by the combination of both EX Score and normal scoring (divided by 1000 and rounded down to the last integer; quadrupled when played on NONSTOP or Class courses). A fourth cutoff border, Advanced Border, is added, whereas if their total LEAGUE SCORE is achieved during the period, the players will receive rewards, with SILVER CLASS or better being eligible for the bonus: GOLD CLASS members will unlock the newest song instantly which can be played even before the Period ends, while players with SILVER CLASS able to access GOLD CLASS exclusive songs once the period ends.

Rewards are given at the end of each Period. At the end of each period, a song from A20 PLUS's GOLDEN LEAGUE is rotated out from BRONZE CLASS and made available by default to all players, regardless of cabinet model. The latest GOLDEN LEAGUE song will first appear in GOLD CLASS before being relegated to SILVER CLASS after two periods, followed by BRONZE CLASS after four periods, after which it is finally unlocked by default four periods later.

Older GOLDEN LEAGUE songs previously rotated out of the BRONZE CLASS are given new CHALLENGE charts. These charts are initially exclusive to GOLD CLASS members and for 20th anniversary models, but are made available by default for all players before the start of the following Period.

The list of periods and its songs are as follows:

Period Duration GOLD CLASS Songs relegated to SILVER CLASS Songs relegated to BRONZE CLASS Songs unlocked CHALLENGE charts added Remarks
1 May 19th to June 15th, 2022 STAY GOLD DDR TAGMIX -LAST DanceR- Step This Way Lightspeed Avenger 9th Dan (九段) course added (available for GOLD CLASS members).
