GROOVE COASTER ZERO DUNGEONS Featured in PUZZLE & DRAGONS!
As part of the crossover event, GROOVE COASTER ZERO-themed dungeons will be available for play in PUZZLE & DRAGONS. These event dungeons are designed as “Technical Dungeons,” enabling enemies to use special skills to fight back against players in addition to their standard attacks. Four different difficulty settings are presented, guaranteeing an experience suitable for everyone from beginners to PUZZLE & DRAGONS experts.

 The characters of SPACE INVADERS—including standard and evolved versions of the OCTOPUS, CRAB, SQUID, UFO—and the GROOVE COASTER ZERO icon’s GC CRAB will also be appearing in the event dungeons, providing nostalgic pixel monsters for players to defeat.

As a special bonus, the top 1,000 ranking players for the “Departure –Remix– “ track will receive ten free VISIBLE items when the campaign concludes.

 In addition to the free level, the event features the launch of a new Puzzle & Dragons Pack for GROOVE COASTER ZERO. This deluxe pack includes three fan-favorite songs by Kenji Ito and one special ZUNTATA remix. In addition to the four playable tracks, customers will receive a special limited edition Avatar based on the popular King Metal Dragon PUZZLE & DRAGONS character.
