Revealed at this morning’s State of Play was Romeo is a Dead Man, a brand new, hyper-violent, unhinged brand of action game being headed up by Suda51 and his studio, Grasshopper Manufacture.
The game’s conceit is absolutely mind-breaking. This excerpt comes straight from the PlayStation Blog.
“Our hero, Romeo Stargazer, is a man stuck between life and death. His own was saved mere seconds before the end by way of a time paradox that shattered the space-time continuum, which was created by a genius scientist screwing around.
“Now, Romeo is FBI Space-Time special agent “Dead Man”, and sporting a rad mask called Dead Gear, must hunt space-time’s most wanted fugitives through multiple universes.”
The game looks as though it blends gun and swordplay in a way that only the team can, and bonkers story aside it looks like an extremely fun action title.
Romeo is a Dead Man is set for release in 2026.
