Grasshopper Manufacture is taking a slightly different approach to its upcoming games, which may work out well for the studio.

Take control of the protagonist, Romeo Stargazer, in this third-person, single-player action-adventure game, which is split into various chapters. His unpredictable story is filled with intense battles interspersed with side missions that allow players to set their own pace. The game’s story begins when space-time itself is shattered by a certain incident. On the brink of life and death, Romeo is revived by a new kind of super technology. The FBI’s Space-Time Police then recruit him as a special agent, and he wanders the cosmos in search of criminals who have taken advantage of the situation, attempting to restore justice to the universe.

At the same time, he searches for clues about his missing girlfriend, Juliet. He quickly realizes that her disappearance and the destruction of space are more linked than he thought. What will Romeo encounter at the edges of space-time while wearing the Deadgear mask? He switches between swords and guns in combat. Wipe out the waves of enemies that stand in your path to unleash a new kind of bloody action and take down the fearsome space-time criminals that await you. Absorb the blood of your enemies to unleash Romeo’s special attack: Bloody Summer, which can turn any situation around. As the story progresses, you can strengthen and alter Romeo’s various weapons as he takes on stronger enemies.

You may be familiar with Grasshopper Manufacture from several games, but the studio is mainly known for the No More Heroes franchise. However, the team is now owned by NetEase Games, a Chinese company, which is why the studio’s decision to self-publish Romeo Is A Dead Man is a bit strange. But we already know when it’s coming!

It will be released on February 11 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC. There will be no Nintendo Switch 2 port, but there is a price: $50.
