ACDC Area, known as Akihara Area (秋原エリア Akihara Eria) in Japan, is the Internet area of ACDC Town. It can be explored by the player from the beginning of most games in the Mega Man Battle Network series that it appears and is connected to several other areas. ACDC Area is essentially the "stage one" of the series, as it houses very weak viruses. In each game, the overall layout of the area changes greatly, but the area has a signature blue coloration.
Except for Mega Man Battle Network 6, Lan Hikari's computer exits into ACDC Area 1, while the locations of Yai's, Dex's, and Mayl's computer varies across the series.

ACDC Area isn't the first location available in the game and contains relatively strong viruses. As the bulletin board for the area reveals, this is due to Lan and MegaMan moving to Central Town and not being available to bust viruses, causing stronger breeds to arise.
ACDC Area only has one area, and it can be accessed from the computer of the squirrel statue in ACDC Town or from Sky Area 2. It has a shop and a bulletin board. Mayl, Dex and Yai have a small personal space in the area, Mayl's having a pink bear, Dex a shogi piece, and Yai's two ducks.
