What this is
Award-winning mystery adventure game Urban Myth Dissolution Center gets a Halloween-themed pop-up shop in Akihabara, showcasing newly drawn illustrations of characters Ayumu Meguriya, Azami Fukurai, and Jasmine dressed as witches and vampires. Developed by Hakababunko and published by Shueisha Games, the title took home the Award for Excellence at the Japan Game Awards 2025. Merchandise details haven't been announced yet, but the key visual — bats, spider webs, wine glasses, witch hats — suggests a stylish seasonal collection. An online shop phase follows the in-store run for those who can't make it to Tokyo.
Who should go
Fans of Urban Myth Dissolution Center or Shueisha Games titles. Visitors browsing Akihabara for limited-edition game merchandise will find this a natural stop given its location in the Gamers flagship store.
Good to know
Entry to the pop-up floor is free — you only pay for merchandise you purchase. AKIHABARA Gamers Main Store is a flagship otaku retail destination and the 7F space is used regularly for pop-up events, so staff are accustomed to these setups. Product details will be announced closer to the event date on the official website and Gamers' social channels — worth following before your visit to avoid a wasted trip if specific items sell out fast. The online shop phase (September 28–October 12) via Gamers Online Shop is an option for overseas fans, though international shipping availability should be confirmed on the site. Akihabara Station on the JR Yamanote and Chuo-Sobu lines is the easiest access point; the store is a short walk from the Electric Town exit.
