The HypeTrain: What You Need To Know About Malaysia’s First MRT Gaming Event

Update [23/11/2022]: Sorry, folks. HypeTrain has been postponed indefinitely. Stay tuned on Kakuchopurei for more future updates!


This November, Kakuchopurei will be launching a one-of-a-kind video game event called The Hype Train. Here’s what you need to know about the upcoming Malaysian event.

What Is the Hype Train?

HypeTrain is a Kakuchopurei original IP and in the long run, we aim to bring similar events to other train stations, train lines in the Klang Valley (think the Ampang line, or the Kelana Jaya line) and even to outside of Malaysia. The Singapore, Jakarta and Bangkok MRT lines are definitely within our sights.  

For one special weekend, 26-27 November, we have partnered with MRT Corp to bring to you a novel way to experience your favourite games. 

We have identified four high-traffic MRT stations in the Klang Valley which will host ‘Hype Booths’ where passersby can engage with activities, participate and compete in several video game titles in a much more conducive and meaningful manner. 

All of these booths will run simultaneously across four stations, and all participants are not only encouraged to take part in Hype Booths near them but to visit ALL THREE stations to accumulate as many points as possible by taking part in the various activities. 

The full list of games featured will be unveiled in the upcoming days, so be sure to stay tuned to our website and other social media accounts. Pre-registrations for The HypeTrain will also commence in the next few days, rewarding early birds with a significant advantage compared to walk-in sign-ins. 

The Hype Train Date & Info

Date: 26-27 November

Time: 10am-6pm
