Three things about No More Heroes 2
The latest issue of Nintendo Power has three interesting details about the upcoming No More Heroes 2 sequel, notable enough that they could be considered spoilers, so consider yourself warned.
- Shinobu, the teen assassin from the original game, will return in NMH2: Desperate Struggle as a playable character. Her fighting style will significantly differ from Travis’, as she moves faster and can even jump. You can’t play as her whenever you want, though.
- Suda expects NMH2 to have around 50 boss battles. He comments, “… we didn’t just want you to be fighting them as the same character again and again. By allowing the player to use a different character we can change up the tempo and offer more surprises. “
- Travis’ primary reason for taking on the United Assassins Association again is to avenge the death of his best friend from the first game, Bishop.
Suda says that despite the grave setup, NMH2 won’t lose the original’s playful tone: “Travis can’t be Travis if he’s not doing all kinds of stupid stuff, too. So don’t worry; we’re going to balance the seriousness of the fight this time with the silliness of Travis.
