Publisher XSEED Games has released the action RPG AKIBA’S TRIP: Undead and Undressed Director’s Cut on Nintendo Switch in both North America and Europe. This version of the game comes complete with all of the game’s DLC , including the new story chapter “Kati’s Route,” which is now available separately for the PC and PS4 versions.

While the base game was released in 2013 for PlayStation Vita and PS3, the Kati’s Route DLC is (kind of annoyingly) considered the the “true ending” to the AKIBA’S TRIP story.

Here’s the official breakdown of AKIBA’S TRIP: Undead and Undressed Director’s Cut from XSEED:

Updated from its original release for a new generation, AKIBA’S TRIP: Undead and Undressed Director’s Cut places players in the role of Nanashi, an otaku mysteriously transformed into a vampire and thrust into a conspiracy of “Synthisters” plaguing the electronics mecca. Alongside a colorful cast of allies known as the “Akiba Freedom Fighters,” Nanashi must defend his fellow otaku from vampire predators, discovering that the best strategy to defeat them is to strip them of their bare essentials and expose them to the cleansing power of the sun! Featuring a fully voiced “true ending” route starring lovable maid Kati, original side quests introducing more offbeat otaku denizens of Akihabara, and an arsenal of new weapons and armor, AKIBA’S TRIP: Undead and Undressed Director’s Cut brings modern supernatural adventure for the Japanophile of discerning tastes.

• Kati Takes Center Stage: Experience the “true ending” of the game’s story for the first time. When a mysterious and malevolent force slumbering inside Kati awakens, will you be able to do whatever it takes to save her?
• More Side Hustles: From a body pillow connoisseur to Japan’s oldest cosplayers, help out the locals in over a dozen new side missions and pick up wild new weapons and armor along the way.
• Revisit the Glory Days of Japan’s Electronic Mecca: Like a virtual tour of Tokyo’s Akihabara ward, all major outdoor locations from the town have been painstakingly recreated circa 2012-2013, with over 130 real-life shops accurately represented.
• Completely Customizable Combat: When you’re an otaku, anything from baseball bats to comics to motherboards can be a weapon. Plus, you can target and strip individual clothing items from enemies to add to your own inventory.

AKIBA’S TRIP: Undead and Undressed Director’s Cut is developed by Acquire. The game is now available both physically and digitally for Nintendo Switch. The Kati’s Route story DLC is now available on the PS4 and PC.
