Killer is Dead - Suda 51 Announces new title!

Postby Bob on Fri Jan 18, 2013 9:28 am

The first trailer for Grasshopper Manufacture's Killer is Dead has been released, following a proper reveal in Famitsu earlier this week.

Image

Described as 'part Killer7, part No More Heroes', the game releases in Japan mid-year and follows the exploits of 35-year-old executioner Mondo Zapper.

The game, which was initially revealed in April last year, will hit PS3 and Xbox 360.

See the debut trailer here

While I didn't really get on with Killer 7, No More Heroes is one of my all time favorite games.

More importantly every game is different!, if half the software houses out there took his approach to games development the world would be a better place.

Loving the art design and hoping the gameplay is going to be good too. Even if it's not, Suda normally has enough original and interesting ideas that even with lacking gameplay it's normally a great experience.

This. It takes a lot to beat the name Garcia Hotspur, but Suda's raised the bar here.

Despite its quirks, I really enjoyed Shadows of the Damned, so I'll be keeping an eye on Killer is Dead.

He who is tired of Suda 51 is probably tired of life.

Whilst CT may indeed be tired of the humdrum, endless tedium of mortal existence, I somewhat have to agree in so much as Suda51 doing another quirky, stylized oddball action game is kind of expected at this point. Not saying it'll be a bad thing or whatever but you do worry that he'll become videogaming's very own Tim Burton.

Just started playing Shadows of the Damned. I've thoroughly enjoyed all of Suda 51's output so far so I will have my eyes on this.
