An E3 teaser video from Ubisoft seems to suggest that the company may be making a publisher announcement regarding No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle. In the video, there is a post-it note sticking to a woman’s shoe with a list of games – One of which is “NMH2.” Just by quickly thinking about it, one would be able to conclude that it stands for “No More Heroes 2.” It’s certainly more than possible that there will be an announcement from Ubisoft, considering the company published the first title. Their conference is set to be held on Monday, so we’ll know once the event is over.
