Rokkaku-dai Heights (ロッカク台 Rokkaku-dai?, lit. Rokkaku Elevated Area) is a location in Jet Set Radio Future. It is a sort of rusted-down area owned by Rokkaku Gouji. It is one of the few locations that is directly connected to the garage, along with Dogenzaka Hill, Shibuya Terminal, and 99th Street. Rokkaku-dai Heights is also one of the five major locations of the Rokkaku-dai District.

Overview[]
Rokkaku-dai Heights is one of the larger areas in the game and consists of many power lines, and three distinct 'levels' to it. However, there are gates blocking half of the access to the level early on in the game. Rokkaku-dai Heights is accessed directly from the garage using the stairs in the southeast part of the garage. DJ Professor K describes the area as an "abandoned hill that time forgot". It is connected to the Tokyo Underground Sewage Facility.
Story[]
During the story, the GG's first head to Rokkaku-dai Heights after defeating Poison Jam in a race around Chuo Street. On arrival, the GG's chase down Poison Jam, and proceed to tag the area in the process. Poison Jam ends up escaping to the sewage facility, which is blocked off at the time being, and the GG's have to fight against the Rokkaku Police multiple times. After taking care of the police and covering up Poison Jam's graffiti, the GG's travel back to Rokkaku-dai Heights to get to Poison Jam's hideout.
Once the second chapter has been completed, a shortcut from the beginning of the level to the sewer halfpipe will be unlocked. In chapter 7, the player must travel through Rokkaku-dai Heights to reach the sewers and get to the Fortified Residential Zone, when they enter the area again, the Golden Rhinos are present, ready to ambush the GG's.

Trivia[]
- The statue of Gouji Rokkaku's ancestor uses the model of Goji Rokkaku from Jet Set Radio.
- Similar to Combo and his appearance in Shibuya Terminal, Rhyth being found in Rokkaku-dai Heights is more than likely a reworked callback to her initial showdown in the original Japanese release of Jet Set Radio, taking place in Kogane-cho.[2]
