Three long years have passed since Travis Touchdown managed to slaughter his way to the tip top, to become the world's No.1 bad ass assassin. Santa Destroy has now become a sprawling city due to a few big companies making heavy investments in it.
Travis has dropped to a lowly No51 on the UAA ranking, reasons for this happening are unknown at present. Sylvia Christel suddenly reappears into Travis's life again as an organisation agent, while Bishop on the other hand finds himself in somewhat of a hole, due to several bitch arse bad guys.
TT's wrestling moves are back once again, along with some new dual-wielding beam-weapon action. Grasshopper is promising to provide a fun and much more varied and battle system.
There will also be a load of new crazy characters introduced in Desperate Struggle, one of which is a afro-wearing dude called Nathan Copeland, who is ranked 50th on the UAA ranking and is apparently a Travis fan also. He seems to have a ghetto blaster which transforms into his weapon of choice.
There's also a mysterious beam-weapon wielding school girl, who seems to be infatuated with Travis...
Grasshopper Manufacture's game is 50% complete now, and a new trailer will be shown on Famitsu.com on 30th May
EDIT:
- Shinobu, from the original No More Heroes, will return as a playable character this time round. She moves faster and can jump about - but only playable at certain sections.
- Suda 51 hopes to have around 50 boss battles in the game. "we didn't just want you to be fighting them as the same character again and again. By allowing the player to use a different character we can change up the tempo and offer more surprises."
