In a recent YouTube video, Suda51 mentioned that Grasshopper has almost confirmed plans to release a new game within three years. Although not many details were revealed about this mysterious project, Suda51 assured that more information will be available soon. Sooner or later, we will have that big announcement ready for you, the developer commented, suggesting fans follow Grasshopper’s social media to stay updated on the news.
On the other hand, ‘Romeo is a Dead Man’ is now available on platforms such as PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, and will be established in the growing ecosystem of Nintendo Switch 2, for which the team is actively working. Suda51 urged fans to be patient while efforts are made to adapt the game to the new hybrid console.
In addition to the digital version, Grasshopper is in talks to launch a physical edition of the game, as well as an art book and an original soundtrack, which will provide fans with a more complete experience of the title.
