GR-UK have published a story about the two upcoming katana + cyborg arm titles coming from Grasshopper and Team Ninja/Comcept/Spark Unlimited.
"Killer is Dead is vintage Suda51 and will no doubt appeal to his established fanbase. The stylish visuals could potentially introduce his particular brand of game to a wider audience, but perhaps that's not the objective..."
"Keiji Inafune has always produced titles that appealed to Western audiences and with a U.S. developer on board it would appear Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z has wider appeal, this also goes with the seemingly arcadey look of the game where you switch from what can almost be said to be a 2.5D perspective to visceral close ups of zombie murder."
Killer is Dead arrived a decade ago, and despite not receiving a sequel stands-up as a unique work from SUDA 51.
Goichi Suda (Aka Suda 51) is a peerless developer, renowned for the making of some of the most unique games. Here are the best ones to date.
Peerless?
I’ve always heard his games have repetitive portions. I appreciate unique and creative games, but repetition dilutes even the greatest games (ie Arkham Asylum).
Shadows of the damned was pretty wild. That and lollipop chainsaw are the only ones ive played but I’d give it to SoTD.
During a panel at Momocon, Grasshopper Manufacture founder Goichi "Suda51" Suda talked about possible Switch ports of his games.
He should. Although I'd like to see something new from him. Or how about Shadows of the Damned 2?
