Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes

Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes is outrageous. The game is uncompromisingly zany: full of smart design, fluid combat, and laugh out loud personality front to back. While some may be turned off by its low budget feel and disjointed design, those who can look past these rough edges will find a hack-and-slash so quirky that it’ll be tough not to fall in love. This title stands as a shining beaco...

Developed by Grasshopper Manufacture – and of course by extension the legendary Suda51 – Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes delivers on almost everything you could want – and expect – from both a Travis Touchdown game and a Suda51 experience. The titular assassin returns, seeking solace deep in the forest away from the assassins who now hunt him for his place at the top of the league. As the gam...

Travis Strikes Again isn’t the No More Heroes games that fans were hoping Suda51 would bring to the Nintendo Switch. Though it’s dripping in all the style and quirky humor that fans have come to know and love from the esteemed director, it’s not the fully-fledged open world sequel to follow in the same vein as its predecessors.

Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes might not have been the game in the series that I was hoping to receive a few years back, but it's no less a fun return for one of my personal favorite characters in gaming.

In short, buy it if you’re a fan of any of those things, maybe wait for a sale if you’re not quite sure. But here’s hoping we get a real No More Heroes next, because this just made me realize I really want that to happen.

We've all been waiting an absurd amount of time for the return of Travis Touchdown, Suda51's iconic otaku, and when Travis Strikes Again was first announced, it sent a long-dormant cult following into a frenzy - myself included. Though No More Heroes and its sequel weren't perfect by any means, they were fascinating and fun, both gems of the Wii library. So Travis Strikes Again simultaneously has ...

Will the real Travis Touchdown please stand up? Please stand up?

Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes is a low point for the action franchise. While each of the game worlds try to introduce new mechanics, they all devolve into predictable fights with waves of bland enemies. Slicing through them with the Beam Katana isn’t as satisfying as before because of the mostly top-down perspective. Well-written visual novel sections offer some classic Suda51 humor, but it...

As an unapologetic Suda51 and No More Heroes fan, it’s such a letdown to have to pen these words after finally, finally seeing one of my favorite franchises resurrected on the Switch. While I dug absolutely every facet of the game's aesthetics and the fact that I was finally able to get more No More Heroes after such a long wait, I didn't quite want it in this format.
