Games Asylum: "So, does Akiba’s Trip recapture that Acquire magic? It’s a bit complicated. Without a doubt this is a game that remains intriguingly unconventional in 2021, let alone when it was released a decade ago. The setting unsurprisingly plays a big role in that – few games utilise the Tokyo district of Akihabara for a backdrop. But a new setting alone doesn’t guarantee an interesting game – all too often it’s used as an excuse for reusing the same old ideas."
"The UK-based video games publisher Marvelous Europe Limited and game developer ACQUIRE Corp, are today very happy and thrilled to announce that “AKIBA’S TRIP: Hellbound & Debriefed” (the enhanced remaster of the Japanese-only PSP Game AKIBA’S TRIP Plus) is now available for the Nintendo Switch (via the Nintendo Eshop) and PS4 (via PSN) in EU and AU." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
