In the videogame heartland of Tokyo the delusions of otaku are coming to life - threatening the vey fabric of reality. As a good-for-nothing geek, you must take to the streets and battle the imaginations of the citizens of the legendary Akihabara district in this hyper-stylish, urban JRPG. Akiba's Beat is an action role-playing video game for the PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 4 video game consoles. It is the third entry in the Akiba series, after the Japan-only Akiba's Trip for PlayStation Portable and the worldwide release Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed, though it is the first entry that plays as a JRPG. The game was released on December 15, 2016 in Japan, and in May 16, 2017 in North America and May 19 in Europe, published by Marvelous USA and PQube. The game is considered a follow-up to the two Akiba's Trip games, but does not share any of its gameplay mechanics, instead focusing more on JRPG related features and structures.The game plays as an action RPG, with battles initiated once the player moves the playable character into an enemy character, sending involved characters into a separate battle screen The game takes place in Akihabara and stars protagonist and NEET Asahi Tachibana, living a regular life after deciding to drop out of college.Transfer student, Saki Hoshino, recently moved to the area and runs into Asahi.Other main characters in include Japanese idol Riyu Momose, the very young looking Yamato Hongo.The game involves the party getting stuck in a world of delusions, trapped in a repeating day long cycle on a Sunday.The party also keeps coming across a strange, unidentifiable man in a pink sash, that always seems to be around when unexplainable incidents occur.
