Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Your Konami ID

   • Password: Create a strong, unique password that meets the specified requirements (e.g., minimum length, inclusion of special characters).
   • Date of Birth: Konami may require your date of birth for age verification purposes.
   • Country/Region: This confirms your location for regional services and support.
