You already have multiple costumes, a steamy shower scene, and plenty of monsters to slay. In case you find yourself wanting more out of The 3rd Birthday, however, don't count on any downloadable add-ons to scratch that itch.
Game director Hajime Tabata manned the game's Twitter account once more to break the news, saying that there won't be any DLC coming to support the game post-launch. Instead, they will be working with the Square Enix Members community to provide unlockables and extra stuff to do for the game.
So if it isn't DLC, what are the players getting?
Stamps. These stamps will unlock Over Energy chips as well as Aya's Lightning costume. How do you earn them? You'll need to add your fellow Square Enix Members as friends, write up your own 3rd Birthday journal, or send 3rd Birthday props to your Square Enix Members friends.
The reason for this is that the publisher is working on a new initiative to get the community more involved in the game. The 3rd Birthday just so happens to be the first title for them to try this out on, so other games in the future may be getting a similar treatment.
So far, this push is directed towards the Japanese fans. Although North America also has its own Square Enix Members service, they have yet to announce if it will walk down this road as well.

This is how you unlock the shower scene in The 3rd Birthday
Square Enix has always been known to be generous with rewards, particularly to their loyal fans. For The 3rd Birthday, they're bringing this generosity over by sharing with you how to unlock that super sexy shower scene video with Aya Brea. Don't go celebrating just yet, though. It's not going to be an easy reward.
All you have to do to catch Aya enjoying a warm bath is to finish the game for just, oh, some 50 times. Piece of cake, huh. No, not really. But if you want to look at the bright side, playing it on easy mode should let you finish the game in an about an hour. So that's just some 50 hours of your life taken away from you by The 3rd Birthday.
Keep in mind, though. It's Aya Brea. In the shower. And that's not all, apparently. If you're determined enough and successfully unlocks this video, watch it ten times and you'll get to see her do the same thing, but from a different camera angle. From a lower camera angle. Yes, I can see the cogs turning in your minds now.
The coveted shower scene isn't the only one to be unlocked too, as it turns out. If you don't think you can the whole 50 yards, you can just aim for 30. It won't be Aya in the shower, but at least it's going to be Aya in the Lightning Costume mode. That's still better than nothing, yeah?
Oh wait, she's wearing nothing in the shower. In this case, nothing is definitely better than this costume mode.
However, we know and understand that not all of you caught some patience when it fell forth from the skies. Given that much patience is required to achieve these unlockables, we've got an even shorter alternative route for you, at least as far as the shower scene is concerned.
We've got the video right here, so go ahead and enjoy. Should there be any downside to this, it would be the fact that the YouTube video is age-restricted. But otherwise, enjoy!
