Missions were added with the introduction of Akashic Explore on April 12, 2016.
While playing in standard Mode, a new Missions page is accessible after the keyboard configuration page in the options menu. Reward missions are only available once, while Repeat missions can be done once per day (22 hours must elapse before it can be selected again). At first, only one frame is available to place a mission on, up to two additional frames can be rented for 24 hours with INFINITAS tickets. Missions are worth a certain number of BITs. When the score screen appears, Achievement rewards can be completed (note: only one reward from each DJ Points and play count will be obtained each time this screen appears, those who have already met the requirements for several will have to play through several times to get everything they've earned). Note: As of May 18, 2016, Achievement rewards are listed in their own category in the Mission page, and they cannot be set to a mission frame.
*On May 18th, 2016, the 24 hour delay for choosing a Repeat mission again was lowered to 22 hours.
*As of the June 6th, 2016 update, Reward missions cannot be selected, and will be completed automatically if their conditions are fulfilled during play. This only applies for songs played on this update forward, previous accomplishments that weren't completed as missions will have to be repeated.
*On October 5th, 2016, the Missions tab was able to be called up directly with a long press of the options key/button (TAB on the keyboard). In addition, QUICK REPEAT (reset the timer for Repeat missions) and BIT BOOST (double BIT rewards for 1 hour) were added, each costing one INFINITAS Ticket.

On the Mode Select screen, a new Akashic Explore option appears between standard and championship. Here, BITs can be spent to progress along the route to unlock new songs. The song unlocks are per chart (Single and Double charts unlock together). The ''Nature Layer'' was unlocked between [[TYPE MARS (G-Style Mix)]] and [[THE SHINING POLARIS]], while the ''Cyber Layer'' was unlocked shortly after [[AVE DE RAPINA]]. As of June 6th, 2016, all difficulties of all layers were made available immediately, with no need to unlock them.

Unlike the other layers, the ''Archive Layers'' do not have individual difficulty selections. The songs are first unlocked on NORMAL, then HYPER, and then ANOTHER. An Archive Layer will not appear at all for players who already got the songs from the Monthly Distribution (instead the ''Archive Extra Layer'' will appear).
