As many might have expected, it appears that the delay of the Japanese version of Akiba’s Beat will indeed be impacting the Western release of the game. During a panel at Tokyo Game Show Acquire announced that the Japanese release has indeed been delayed to winter and also stated that the Western version of the game would not be released until Q1 2017.
It is worth noting that this delay has not been confirmed by XSEED Games who is publishing the title in North America. The company had a little bit extra to show off besides the delay announcement however as they also showed footage of two dungeons, a boss fight, and how the “Imagine Gauge” will allow characters to unleash powerful attacks.
