Although developer Grasshopper Manufacture is already currently underway with the third mainline entry for No More Heroes 3, the team’s catalogue of older titles are projected to be hitting the Nintendo Switch as well. Earlier this month, it was reported from a ratings board in Taiwan which disclosed that 2007’s No More Heroes would be shipping to Nintendo Switch. Now, the story thickens as another Grasshopper Manufacture title surfaces.
While this one is not derived from a foreign ratings board, it is instead uncovered on a LinkedIn account for an employee involved with the unannounced project. In that, Ruud van de Mossdijk of Engine Software discloses to be working on a secretive title with a well-known team based in the Japan region. “Currently Producer on an unannounced title in collaboration with a prolific Japanese game designer,” the description reads.
However, taken from the profile elsewhere in his featured work related to Engine Software, it explicitly displays that he is an Executive Producer for Killer7 Remastered. The profile also goes to disclose that the reworking for the 2005 title is being implemented for Nintendo Switch alongside for PC as well.
Gathered that the game is already available on Steam, perhaps this will be a more preferable optimization port for the platform. Previously,studio founder Goichi Suda when speaking during a livestream interview for Momocon disclosed that Capcom would need to verify before the project can be greenlit. And now from what can be gathered from the listing, Grasshopper Manufacture is preparing to make that announcement soon.
Alongside the possibilities of other entries from Grasshopper Manufacture, Suda disclosed that games such as Moonlight Syndrome and Flower, Sun, and Rain are still in the air for reworkings. Howbeit, he discloses that The Silver Case is the likeliest of the catalogue to receive a Nintendo Switch release. You can read the full report by heading here.
