'Killerisdead' Domain Listed Under XSEED
posted on by Joanne Mertz
North American video game publisher XSEED Games registered the domain killerisdead-game, as well as well as sites killandlove.com and loveandkill.com, on January 14.
Killer Is Dead is the name of Kadokawa Games, Grasshopper Manufacture, and Suda51's recently announced action game starring Mondo Zappa, a suit-wearing executioner responsible for taking out heinous criminals with a katana.
Siliconera contacted XSEED to ask if the company would be publishing the game, and the publisher's Executive Vice-President, Ken Berry, replied: “XSEED Games cannot confirm that they are publishing Killer is Dead in North America.”
Killer Is Dead is slated for a Japan release this summer for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Executive director Suda51 stated the game will be full of the "condensed essence" of his previous "assassin games" such as killer7 and No More Heroes. Executive Producer Yoshimi Yasuda (Kadokawa Games) also stated that the game is planned for worldwide release, but a release date outside of Japan has yet to be confirmed.
