Marvelous have released a Series Overview trailer for No More Heroes III; separate from the earlier livestream.
As previously reported, aliens have invaded, and Travis must now enter the intergalactic superhero league to defeat them. Now armed with a Death Glove, he has new special skills that can be upgraded and customized to help carve through enemies, along with new forms.
While a previous livestream discussed the game’s features, the new trailer is an excerpt of the series overview. Unlike last time, the image of Travis Strikes Again‘s Metacritic page is blurred, and the gag about “reading the rest on Wikipedia” is also cut.
The second half of the trailer shows gameplay and scenes from No Mores Heroes III. For those who do not want to sift through the livestream, the new trailer helps focus on the most important information. The full livestream did reveal some of the minigames; including playing with Jeanne, and earning money by mowing lawns, and picking up trash from a river while avoiding alligators.
Long-time fans may notice Sylvia uses the phrase “Garden of Slaughter,” rather than her usual “Garden of Madness.” While this may hint at a greater mystery, it could merely be referring to how different it will be for Travis to fight aliens, rather than other humans.
You can find the Series Overview trailer below.
You can find the full rundown (via Nintendo) below.
Fight your way to the top of the Galactic Superhero Rankings!
The legendary assassin Travis Touchdown makes his glorious return to the Madness!
Our hero, Travis Touchdown, must make it to the top of the Galactic Superhero Rankings in order to stop the evil Prince FU and his ten alien assassins from taking over the Earth.
Earn money to enter ranked battles!
To enter into each subsequent ranked battle, you’ll need to pay a pretty steep fee. Travis must take on various missions around town to make the money he needs to fight. An invitation to the next fight will be sent once the required fees have been transferred via ATM.
Use your skills to dominate opponents!
Enjoy even more hardcore slash-‘em-up action than ever before as you use the Joy-Con’s intuitive controls to wield Travis Touchdown’s trusty Beam Katana along with a slew of pro wrestling techniques!
Also, featured for the first time in the series, Travis can now use his Death Glove to activate a variety of skills, allowing for more strategic battles. Furthermore, you can now customize the new Skill Tree and try out different Death Glove Chip combinations to find the play style that works best for you.
It’s the Galaxy vs. the Hood in a full-on war by proxy.
No More Heroes III launches August 27th on Nintendo Switch.
