Bandai Namco finally releases its highly anticipated shooting game - Sailor Zombie ~AKB48 Arcade Edition~, which was first presented at JAEPO 2014. The game, which was developed by Nex Entertainment (Dark Escape 3D, Razing Storm, Music GunGun!, Music GunGun! 2, Time Crisis 3, Time Crisis 4 and Cobra The Arcade), was released on April 23rd into Japanese arcades, after a location test in late March at Aeon Fantasy (Shizuoka).

The game is played in a cabin featuring a large screen and a 5.1 sound system. While fighting alongside one of the following 7 members of the band (Yuko Oshima, Mayu Watanabe, Yuki Kashiwagi, Rina Kawaei, Anna Iriyama, Mako Kojima, Miki Nishino), players must either shoot the other AKB48 members that have been transformed into zombies or inject an antidote to the members, as well as fight Big Bad Bosses.

There will also be a musical part in the game where the player can dance and play a rhythm game on 4 AKB48 songs. This will occur at random points in the story and includes " Vichy Check" and "Flying Get".

The game is based on a drama, Sailor Zombie, broadcast on TV Tokyo. Nana Owada, Rina Kawaei, Juri Takahashi and Mion Mukaichi are the heroines of the series that tells the story of schoolgirls trying to survive in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by zombies. The faces of the members of AKB48 were scanned to produce 3D versions for zombies for super realistic game play.

This seems like an incredibly fun and different game with it's go between zombie-apocalypse-shooter and dance-rhythm-game. Check out the video below to see what can be expected from the game if you should ever get the chance to play it:
