IIDX AIR RACE is beatmania IIDX 25 CANNON BALLERS' EXTRA STAGE system. For Japanese version machines, this only appears on PREMIUM START (which requires [[PASELI]]). The event began on February 1st, 2018.

Like previous EXTRA STAGE systems in beatmania IIDX, the sum of difficulty levels, DJ LEVEL, and clear type are the main requirements to unlock a IIDX AIR RACE song for EXTRA STAGE. All the charts are playable from the first day of a IIDX AIR RACE song's appearance.

AIR RACE songs are separated in groups. A group consists of three EXTRA STAGE songs plus an ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE, with one EXTRA STAGE song added in every five weeks. Once the third EXTRA STAGE song appears, it is possible to unlock the group's songs for regular play by clearing their charts (with HARD CLEAR, CLEAR, EASY CLEAR or ASSIST CLEAR gauges, depending on the respective phase).

The conditions to access IIDX AIR RACE change based on the Phase it is in.

|A or better

|HARD CLEAR or better

|HARD CLEAR or better

|EASY CLEAR or better

|rowspan=2|ASSIST CLEAR or better

|colspan=11|If RANDOM is used, all three songs must be cleared with a rank on AAA and an EX-HARD CLEAR or FULL COMBO (for Phase 1, a FULL COMBO is required to unlock HYPER and ANOTHER).

By clearing the IIDX AIR RACE with an EX-HARD gauge (or with a FULL COMBO) and a AAA rank, the ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE will be automatically accessed. It will retain the options used on the EXTRA STAGE, including gauge type and if it was played on Single or Double. Once all sections of a certain group are available, it can be accessed by collecting badges by clearing all of the associated songs on a specific difficulty with a clearing requirement (see table above).

A Gold Tran Medal is received for clearing all songs under their respective group.

The ''IIDX AIR RACE FINAL LAP'' is available from September 27th, 2018. It requires the ''Gekisou! Cannon racer'' (激走！キャノンレーサー) event to be completed and IIDX AIR RACE song badges under a specific difficulty (depending on which difficulty you want to play the FINAL LAP song on) to be obtained. Once the requirements are satisfied, you have to play an entire credit (including EXTRA STAGE) of IIDX AIR RACE and/or Gekisou! Cannon racer songs with a sum of all difficulty levels in order to unlock the final ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE, by also meeting the aforementioned Phase unlock conditions. The minimum levels are as follows:

!style="background:#9999ee; text-align: center;" |Phase

!style="background:#9999ee; text-align: center;" |ANOTHER

|Phase 5

= Gekisou! Cannon racer (激走！キャノンレーサー) =

''Gekisou! Cannon racer'' (激走！キャノンレーサー) is beatmania IIDX 25 CANNON BALLERS' unlock event. It began on January 25th, 2018, with a second continent following on March 1st, a third May 10th, 2018, and a final one on July 26th, 2018. e-amusement is required to start the event. This event appears at the end of any mode with one player.

The objective of the event is to race against rival cars. To do so you must obtain Tune Points (チューンポイント). Playing a song gives you Tune Points, and the amount of points depends on which mode you are playing (regardless of clearing or failing the song):

* PREMIUM FREE: 250 points for the first five songs, 20 for each additional song

* HAZARD: 250 points (four songs)

* TIME FREE: 500 points for the first two songs, 20 for each additional song

* TIME FREE PLUS: 500 points for the first three songs, 20 for each additional song

* TIME HAZARD and TIME HELL: 250 points for the first four songs, 20 for each additional song

The first continent has a cap of 40,000 Tune Points, with the second and third having caps of 80,000 and 120,000 Tune Points respectively.

After racing against a rival car, fuel (depending on your car and its parts) is consumed. Your car will then advance on the rally (100km by default, plus 50km if you won a race, and an extra 20km if Nitro Booster was used). Once it reaches a checkpoint, you will receive one chart of a selected song. With the exceptions of bosses and rare enemy drops, any song can be unlocked on any continent.

CS songs and † charts can be unlocked by beating rare enemies. Note that if you haven't unlocked them by the time you finish a continent, they will be automatically unlocked.

* [[Usual Days-remix]]: beat Mamonis & Vega.

* [[RED ZONE|RED ZONE†]]: beat Kneeso-hime.

* [[SHOX]]: beat Blue Repika.

* [[CONTRACT|CONTRACT†]]: beat Cuvelia & Tuonetar.

* [[HYPE THE CORE]]: beat White Lopica.

* [[Eine Haube ~seichi no hate ni arumono~|Eine Haube ～聖地の果てにあるもの～]]: beat Elpis.

* [[From Time To Time]]: beat Kneeso-hime.

* [[255]]: beat Saruis & Rche.

First continent: [[DEATH ZIGOQ ~ikari no kousoku bakusou yarou~|DEATH†ZIGOQ ～怒りの高速爆走野郎～]]<br>

= ARENA MODE =

ARENA MODE is a new, timed mode in beatmania IIDX 25 CANNON BALLERS. In this mode, the player and three others each choose a song and compete for the highest EX score across four stages. Two points are awarded for first place, one for second, and none for third and fourth. Whoever has the most points at the end of a round wins. Getting points unlocks ARENA CUBES; acquiring 50 ARENA CUBES will unlock hidden songs. Note that if three human players cannot be found online or in local play, CPU players will take their place instead.

The ''WEEKLY RANKING'' feature in beatmania IIDX 25 CANNON BALLERS was added on January 24th, 2018. WEEKLY RANKING sessions last for a week, with Wednesday at 12:00 pm being the beginning and as well as the deadline in the successive week.

You earn a star (the day after a WEEKLY RANKING period for a song ends) if your score in the leaderboards for a specific WEEKLY RANKING song's chart is high enough. Note that stars depend on each song's chart, not on the whole song itself, which means you can earn up to three stars per Weekly song. A new tier added in this version is the White star.

In the song list menu, a bar shows your WEEKLY RANKING star progress on the chosen Weekly song's chart; the arrow determines your current position in the leaderboards:

* '''White star:''' if the arrow is located in the white section (within 75% in the leaderboards).

* '''Bronze star:''' if the arrow is located in the cyan section (within 50% in the leaderboards).

* '''Silver star:''' if the arrow is located in the gray section (within 25% in the leaderboards).

* '''Gold star:''' if the arrow is located in the yellow section (within 10% in the leaderboards).

* '''Platinum star:''' if the arrow is located in the very small blue section (within top 10 in the leaderboards).
