No More Heroes 3 was first announced for Switch at E3 2019. Grasshopper Manufacture originally hoped to have the game ready in 2020, but the team was impacted by the current pandemic and delayed the project to 2021. Director Suda51 explained at the time: “All staff members at Grasshopper have been working as hard as possible on developing the game in hopes of releasing it in 2020, but the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have unfortunately proven to be a real body blow to our schedule, causing unforeseen delays in development.”
No More Heroes 3 is out now both physically and digitally on Switch. Come see nearly an hour of gameplay here.
