“Updated from the original release for a new generation, AKIBA’S TRIP: Undead and Undressed Director’s Cut puts players in the role of Nanashi, an otaku mysteriously turned into a vampire and thrust into a conspiracy of “Synthisters” who are rampaging through the electronic mecca. With a colorful crew of allies known as ‘Akiba’s Freedom Fighters’, Nanashi must defend her fellow otaku from vampire predators, discovering that the best strategy to defeat them is to strip them of their essentials and expose them to the purifying power of the Sun! With a fully voiced “true ending” route starring the lovable maid Kati, original side quests that introduce the unconventional otaku residents of Akihabara, and an arsenal of new weapons and armor, AKIBA’S TRIP: Undead and Undressed Director’s Cut delivers a modern supernatural adventure for Japanophiles with discerning tastes.”
