Dance Dance Revolution X3 (ダンスダンスレボリューションX3 Dansu Dansu Reboryūshon Ekkusu Surī), sometimes abbreviated DDR X3 or simply X3, is a music video game, and a part of the Dance Dance Revolution series. The arcade version of DDR X3 was revealed by Konami on June 2, 2011. A sequel to Dance Dance Revolution X2, X3 began public beta testing on June 8, 2011. Promotional information for the game reveal the full name for the game, called DanceDanceRevolution X3 VS 2ndMix (ダンスダンスレボリューションX3バーサスセカンドミックス Dansu Dansu Reboryūshon Ekkusu Surī Bāsasu SekandoMikkusu) due to the new "2ndMix" mode in the game. It is released in Japan on November 16, 2011 for dedicated cabinet, November 30, 2011 for upgrade kits, and December 16, 2011 in Asia.[1]
Development
Development on X3 began shortly after X2 was released. From June 8 to June 10, 2011, a location test was held in Akihabara, Tokyo. This location test revealed new songs and other features. These features include the new Target Score and BEMANI folders. The menu screens also got an update; they are now blue instead of green. Other enhancements to the theme were also made, such as the animation of the background (these animations are very similar to the one used on Dance Dance Revolution II). Konami also announced that there will be a new 2ndMIX mode, where the player can play a full HD version of DDR 2ndMIX.
Features
- 2ndMIX mode. The player will be able to play a full HD version of "DanceDanceRevolution 2ndMIX", including all licenses(excluding STRICTLY BUSINESS) from the game. New features will be added on the mode, such as the e-AMUSEMENT capabilities.
- Quick Play mode, a similar mode to "Marathon Mode" from DDR X2 in which PASELI users can use the pay-per-song method for as much stages as the arcade allows. For some time, this mode is also the only way to access the Challenge charts of some songs.[2]
- Target Score, which allows players to view machine and e-Amusement records without playing the song.[3]
- "BEMANI Title" sort, which allows songs to be sorted by the BEMANI title they originally appeared in.[3]
- DRILL COURSE have been removed.
- There are some arcade machines of DDR X3 in which judgment of streaked notes and the quantity of combos are placed under the note strip while others are placed on top of the note strip.
- Selecting a song folder will either:
- Show song selections under it and the other folders are not shown, or
- Show the other folders and the song selections under it are not shown.
DDR X3 will also support "e-AMUSEMENT GATE", a community website where players can form groups, share scores, and interact with other players.
Enjoy Level
As in previous games, DDR X3 vs 2ndMix uses level unlocking system to unlock some of the game's unlockable content. Players need to fulfill certain requirements to fill up the "Enjoy Level" bar and when it is full, the player levels up. This requires e-Amusement. Most of Enjoy Level unlocks are songs taken from North American DDR 2010 and DDR II, in addition to new songs.
Extra Stage
DDR X3 also implements a new system for accessing Extra Stage. "Star system" can now be used to access Extra Stage. When the player clear a song, they will get stars (shown below the grade) depending on what grade they get:
- AAA grade = 3 stars
- AA grade = 2 stars
- A-D grade = 1 star
- Song or course failed (E) = 0 stars
- Getting a full combo = Additional 1 star (Except AAA and E)
A slot with 9 star slots will be displayed below the results screen. When the player earn 9 stars, they can access Extra Stage regardless of their grade. After using it though, they will reset and the player must earn them back. Note that this is only available for players with e-AMUSEMENT. The new song available for Extra Stage is Amalgamation. In addition, the Encore Extra Stage songs are eventually available on Extra Stage after a specified date and if the player fulfill a secret requirement using the star system, with UNBELIEVABLE (Sparky remix) being available on January 25, 2012, NEPHILIM DELTA on April 25, 2012, and as of July 23, 2012, all Extra Stage songs have been unlocked for regular play.
Encore Extra Stage
The requirement for accessing Encore Extra Stage is the same from DDR X2; scoring AA or better under Expert on the specific song during Extra Stage. Scoring AA or better on Amalgamation will unlock UNBELIEVABLE (Sparky remix). Two additional songs were added on Encore Extra Stage after a specified date: NEPHILIM DELTA on January 25, 2012 and SILVER☆DREAM on April 25, 2012. All Encore Extra Stage songs have been unlocked as of July 23, 2012.
Extra Tour
A new Extra Stage event, called "EXTRA Tour" was announced on May 12, 2012 and was started on May 14, 2012. In this event, new songs will be added as Extra Stage. They will appear in specific regions at first and move to other regions each day. The first song, tokyoEVOLVED will appear in Hokkaido and Okinawa Prefecture and move to the south (for Hokkaido) and north (for Okinawa) until they eventually land on each other's region.[4] There is also a second route, starting on May 16, 2012 from Mie Prefecture and Fukui Prefecture. The new song available in these routes is osaka EVOLVED -毎度、おおきに！-.[5]
The third route have been announced on May 19, 2012 that was started on May 22, 2012 from Hokkaido and Okinawa Prefecture. The new song available in this route is New York EVOLVED.[6] The fourth and final route was announced on May 26, 2012 and was started on May 30, 2012 from Hokkaido and Okinawa Prefecture yet again. The new song available in this route is London EVOLVED.[7]
After playing all Extra Tour songs at least once, scoring AA or better on Expert on any of these songs unlocks the Encore Extra Stage, Tohoku EVOLVED. The Extra Tour event was ended on July 22, 2012[8] and all songs were unlocked for regular play.[9]
Crossover DDR
On August 2, 2012, a new event called "Crossover DDR" was started. In this event, players can unlock the 2ndMix-exclusive songs for use in X3 mode. Players will simply need to play the charts of the songs in 2ndMix mode to unlock them in X3 mode. As 2ndMix Mode only feature Basic, Difficult, and Expert charts for Single (or only Basic and Difficult in Double), the Beginner chart will be automatically unlocked once the player unlock at least one of the main difficulties, while the Double Expert as well as Single and Double Challenge charts (which all songs have) will unlocked once the player unlocks all other charts.
Three boss songs also can be unlocked through this event. Clearing all charts in Normal mode of the 2ndMix mode will unlock "TRIP MACHINE EVOLUTION" in Extra Stage, while clearing all charts in Hard mode will unlock "PARANOiA Revolution". Scoring AA or better on these songs on Expert unlock the Encore Extra Stage, LOVE IS THE POWER Re:born. The 1-life battery in Encore Extra Stage is uniquely made to fail the player if they get GREAT or lower (instead of GOOD or lower).
The event was ended on November 5, 2012 and all songs were unlocked for regular play, with no video for LOVE IS THE POWER Re:born.
