General Information / Changes

• Slogan: 光る近未来都市。 鳴らせ新時代。 (LIGHTNING EPOLIS. PLAY THE NEW ERA.)
• Theme: Futuristic city/Nightlife/Radio Broadcasting/Journalism
  • The E and I colored yellow is a reference to the 31st installment of the beatmania IIDX series.
  • This version's STEP UP mode is themed around fashion retail, where your Q-Pro works as a retail worker in the trendy mega-department store NIDERA 926.
    • The setting is a parody of the world-famous Tokyo fashion store Shibuya 109.
• In-game currency is called EPO.
• Customized folder added, containing only filtered songs based on the player's preferences.
• OPTION screen interface has been redesigned; the guide interface is relocated to the bottom of the screen.
  • H-RANDOM and EXPAND JUDGE options have been removed.
• "Beginner Recommended" folder added, which contains only a limited number of songs. Like other BEMANI series, this is the default option for first-time players and those who do not have an e-amusement pass.
  • The ALL BEGINNER folder has been removed.
• Songs beginning with a number have been segregated from OTHERS in alphabetical sorting, now placing under a new 0-9 folder.
• Premium Area added the following features:
  • Music retry function, allowing players to retry the same song with the exact same options and RANDOM lane configuration if a STYLE modifier is used. It can only be used once per play; requires PASELI.
    • It cannot be combined with RANDOM lane gacha, and can only be used in STANDARD, FREE or PREMIUM FREE mode.
  • Shortcuts for Turntable resistance, Screenshot, Play Recorder and Play Analyzer have been added.
  • Customization for lane covers has been added, along with toggles for lane height for SUDDEN+ and LIFT.
  • Play customization items can now be changed in game; prior to this, it had to be done on the e-amusement site.
    • Key beam lengths can now be adjusted for all key beam customize options.
  • QWERTY keyboard layout has been added.
  • Options for participating in casual tournaments or competitions are added, along with a bar graph for current standings among participants, as well as rivals.
  • DJ DATA tab added, allowing players to view details of MY NOTES RADAR.
• Tran Medals have been removed.
  • As such, EPO can now be awarded for reaching certain badge levels, including STEP UP mode.
• Players now have the option to select DJ VIP PASS GOLD or PLATINUM when DJ VIP PASS BLACK is available to be selected.
• When playing PREMIUM Start, the minimum level restriction (for no Dan clears) is set to 10-11-12 (equivalent to 7th Dan clears).
• If your account is linked to beatmania IIDX ULTIMATE MOBILE, you can edit Song selection memo and be notified of any in-game events and casual tournaments via the app.
• First beatmania IIDX game since SIRIUS with several default system BGMs across game modes (outside STEP UP mode or event-based ones).
• EPOLIS' location test marks the first one for a beatmania IIDX arcade game since beatmania IIDX 25 CANNON BALLERS to not have a newly composed song by Takayuki Ishikawa on it.
• First beatmania IIDX game since his debut where Camellia doesn't appear in the default songlist.
• System voices are provided by Shem (voiced by Yuichi Nakamura) and Celica (voiced by Mai Nakahara).
  • Similar to RESIDENT, these system voices are only present in the Japanese version of the game.
• All remaining unlocks from BISTROVER, all non-BEMANI event unlocks from CastHour, and the six launch hidden LEGGENDARIA charts from RESIDENT are all unlocked by default.
  • Souhait bleu, 2 Beasts Unchained and 逆月 are playable outside LIGHTNING MODEL cabinets, though they are required to be unlocked beforehand (Souhait bleu is available by default).
• Fumiaki Ito, the organizer of Diverse System, was involved as a coordinator to introduce artists for the game [1].
