Good news for Melty Blood fans. It looks like Melty Blood: Actress Again Current Code will have an online mode after all, it just won’t be available at launch. Ecole Software wants to test the netcode first so they’re releasing a free demo on the official Melty Blood website with online functionality. The demo releases on December 12th in Japan and includes Arcueid, Red Arcueid, Sion Eltnam Atlasia, and Sion Tatari as playable characters.

Melty Blood: Actress Again Current Code releases on December 31st in Japan for PC. The game is currently being bundled with the season 3 of Carnival Phantasm on Blu-ray. There’s still no word on a stand alone release.
