ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN Set to Shatter Space-Time on PC and Consoles 11th February 2026
Suda51's latest bloody action masterpiece launches early next year, bringing players a unique recipe of ultra-violent science fiction, and super sleek action gameplay!
Tokyo, Japan - 5th December, 2025 - Grasshopper Manufacture Inc. (GhM) has managed to break the space-time continuum to ensure their latest blood-soaked action game ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN launches earlier than expected on 11th February 2026 on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam.
ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN marks the first brand-new IP from GhM and Goichi 'Suda51' Suda (No More Heroes trilogy, The Silver Case, Shadows of the Damned) in more than five years, and blends GhM's trademark ultra-violent bloody action players know and love, with an original (and wholly bonkers) story.
Are you ready to become a Dead Man?
Snatched from the brink of death by his donning of the rad mask "DeadGear", FBI Space-Time special agent, Romeo Stargazer, sets out to hunt the most wanted fugitives in existence across the multiverse, armed with a heady arsenal of guns and close-combat weapons. And as if being stuck in a strange limbo between life and death as DeadMan and tasked with navigating a shattered space-time continuum isn't enough, Romeo also has to contend with the sudden disappearance of his mysterious girlfriend, Juliet.
"Now we've won our game of chicken against *cough* a certain twice-delayed 2026 release, we can reveal our cards and confirm we never intended to launch in May in the first place," Executive Director/Scenario Writer/Producer, Grasshopper Manufacture, Goichi 'Suda51' Suda, said. "We're warping space-time to put the finishing touches to ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN ahead of its launch next February."
