Ah, Acquire’s quirky humor weaved its way into Akiba’s Trip, the PSP action-adventure game where you expose vampire-like creatures in Akihabara.

Following a delay, Acquire’s Akiba’s Trip now has a concrete release date in Japan.

Akiba’s Trip’s protagonist knocks his opponents flat on their faces after exposing their bodies to sunlight.

The PSP game blends fantasy and reality by putting vampire-like creatures into the streets of Tokyo’s electric town. Why vampires? That’s one of the questions I asked Luke Rideout, Associate Producer of Akiba’s Trip, at Acquire.

The developer of action games including Way of the Samurai and Tenchu: Shadow Assassins wanted to design a game that went beyond beating up an enemy.

Acquire’s upcoming PSP game wasn’t always set there. “The decision to set it [Akiba's Trip] in Akihabara came quite a while afterward,” Luke Rideout, Assistant Producer, tells Siliconera in an interview.

The pale skinned girl with long and slender limbs is Rui Fumiduki. She rarely laughs, but isn’t shy about lending a helping hand.

The concept for Acquire’s action-adventure game Akiba’s Trip is real life Akihabara meets vampires leads to an impossible battle.

Akiba’s Trip, Acquire’s portable stroll through Akihabara… with day walking vampires, has an action combat system.
