GITADORA GALAXY WAVE DELTA will be sequentially launched on the new GITADORA -ARENA MODEL- from tomorrow.This is an upgraded version of GITADORA GALAXY WAVE optimised for the new cabinet's functions. GITADORA -ARENA MODEL- is the first new cabinet for GITADORA in 12 years. It features a triple monitor system with a large 50" main monitor and two 32"sub-monitors on the left and right to expand your field of vision while you play. The centre monitor shows the view of the live venue as seen from the stage, while the left and right monitors feature characters playing as band members. A touch panel monitor has been installed on the bottom right of the unit, making it easy to operate even for players playing GITADORA for the first time. It also makes it possible to select songs and customise options more intuitively. 6 speakers + large diameter woofer reproducing an overwhelming acoustic experience are also present. Six large-diameter speakers play the performance sound, background music, and effects separately, greatly improving the playing experience. Some songs, mainly new songs, are recorded as "LIVE SOUND" sound sources optimized for the new speaker system. In addition, the cabinet is also equipped with a headphone jack for the first time. The snare pad and four tom pads are now made from a silicone material, providing a more comfortable feel that is closer to that of a real drum. In addition to GuitarFreaks, which uses five neck buttons, and DrumMania which uses nine pads and pedals, two new playing styles: GuitarRookie and DrumRookie that allow even first-time players to easily experience the game. The gameplay screen has been changed to make it easier to play. The lane display format can now be selected from three types: not only the familiar Vertical style from GITADORA but also Approach, a lane type where notes approach from the back, and Vertical XG which makes the Vertical style the same size as the monitor of the current XG cabinet. Each player can choose the lane that is best suited to them. GITADORA -ARENA MODEL- includes many new songs, including new KONAMI originals, BEMANI songs, popular songs , licensed anime songs, J-POP songs and more.
