Ubisoft publishing No More Heroes in the U.S.

by Justin McElroy { Sep 20th 2007 at 10:45AM }

Whether or not you enjoyed Killer 7, you can probably agree that it's a good thing that oddball titles like that are not only available, but localized for English-speaking markets. If so, you have another reason to celebrate today as Ubisoft has announced that they'll be publishing Suda 51's follow up No More Heroes in America in February.

For the uninitiated, No More Heroes is a super-violent action/adventure featuring the awesomely-named Travis Touchdown (so much cooler than Randy R.B.I.) tracking down assassins and killing them with his beam katana. If you crave more information, check out the above Joystiq Award Winner for Best Trailer Evar.

The worst trailer in history.

Some dude...jacking his lightsaber.

Worst trailer?!? My fucking head exploded from the awesome.

What is he doing? Is he charging his swords?? I don't understand. I'm ever so confused.

gir @ Sep 20th 2007 3:22PM

....wait a minute, I think I'm getting it.........OMG, this game better be rated M.

Just publishing, right?

Just publishing. In terms of content, Ubisoft said that they're going to leave the game 100% intact, sans an English translation.

I'm eagerly awaiting its February release. The Wii drought (already diminished by the soothing rains or Strikers and Corruption) is soon to be over.

And for the record, jacking off with a lightsaber is undoubtedly the coolest thing ever.

ahahahaha i did not expect that

YEAH

Killer 7 was David Lynch The Game. Hope this can follow in those footsteps.

blooh (CDF - Ass Ring) @ Sep 20th 2007 11:32AM

ugh, don't compare killer7 to that hack

IGN has a cool trailer for the game at: http://wii.ign.com/articles/821/821117p1.html

It looks interesting for sure.

these 5 second spots are all hilarious, but I won't be impressed till I see how the whole thing comes together. A couple offensive or crazy jokes + a unique art style don't equal a masterpiece.

Phillip @ Sep 20th 2007 12:05PM

but... but... but...

PENIS JOKES!!!

Must get Wii by February.

ThornedVenom @ Sep 20th 2007 12:22PM

Why the heck do you have to sideways motion a vertical ingame motion?

Anyways, I'm still looking forward to this game: it has such an appealing visual style.
