Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed, which originally launched as Akiba’s Trip Plus for PSP in Japan in 2012, is coming west for PlayStation 4 and PC, publisher XSEED Games announced.
Take a trip back to the origin of a series that will knock more than just your socks off! In Akiba’s Trip, players expose vampiric creatures called Shadow Souls to deadly sunlight by liberating them of their clothes. Now, a fully remastered version of the original “Strip Action RPG” is coming to the West for the first time. Following the success of Akiba’s Trip: Undead & Undressed, which was released as Akiba’s Trip 2 in Japan and has sold over 500,000 copies worldwide, Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed completely rebuilds the first title in a modern engine, bringing back the beat-’em-up, strip-’em-down gameplay fans know and love while accurately rendering Akihabara, Japan’s geek paradise, from circa 2012 in glorious HD.

Developed by Acquire Corp. and published in North America by XSEED Games, Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed is in development with the launch date to be announced at a later time.

I just realized it: so this isn't a sequel, but the first game in the series (that previously never made it outside of Japan)?

It's pretty cool to finally have it. (y)

I was going to buy the regular version so I guess I'll wait for this one instead.
