With Romeo is a Dead Man just days away from its final release, Grasshopper Manufacture has dropped a new launch trailer for the quirky action-adventure title that sees Romeo try to make sense of his murder in a time-travelling adventure that’s as bizarre as it is intriguing.
A catchy new title track accompanies the showcase, which highlights the game’s combat while also introducing us to some of the monstrosities that Romeo is going to be facing during his stint with the FBI Space-Time Police. With an arsenal of weapons in tow, his adventures look like they’re going to take him to some weird places.
The mysterious Dead Gear anchors him in place, but even as she seeks out the even more mysterious Juliet, the action plays out in Grasshopper’s signature over-the-top style. One thing’s for sure – wherever his journey ends, it’s not going to be your typical happy ending.
With a lot of dangerous fugitives to hunt down, and side missions to discover and engage with, Romeo is a Dead Man looks like it could very well be an excellent blend of compelling storytelling and some thrilling hack n’ slash gameplay. It’s out on February 11th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC.
