Ladder Match Season 12 of DJMAX RESPECT V will take place from 6 PM KST on May 16th, 2024, and will last for 90 days!
The changes for Season 12 are as follows:

• The ONE PICK system will be added.
  After receiving your tier placement, you can set ONE PICK for each button type, and the chosen song will be reflected in the song selection. ONE PICK allows you to choose from songs within your tier that you own. If multiple buttons are matched, the button set as BEST will be prioritized.
  
• A practice feature is added.
  After receiving your tier placement, you can practice while waiting for a match. The practice song will be chosen according to your tier, and practice results will not be recorded. If an opponent is found during practice, the ladder match will start immediately. For those in Diamond 1 tier and above, practice mode will operate in hard judgment mode.

• Placement matches are changed from 3 games to 2 games.
  
• The minimum tier for hard judgment to be automatically applied is changed from 'Master' to 'Diamond 1'.
  
• The starting tier for players without records from the previous season will be influenced by DJ CLASS.

Participation rewards for Season 12 will be distributed in PLAY POINTS according to each tier.

• A MENU feature, a navigation system that allows for immediate movement between different game modes or quick access to features, has been added. It can be opened using the 'ESC' key or right-click of the mouse, incorporating the previous 'ESC' key function of 'Exit' into the MENU.

■ DJ CLASS category has been added to the FREE STYLE mode.
■ DJ CLASS tab has been added in COLLECTION mode.
■ Regular rewards will be distributed with PLAY POINT.

• In line with the release of the next regular DLC, songs under the NEW category will be transitioned to BASIC, and the accumulated DJ POWER will be automatically adjusted accordingly.
