The legendary assassin Travis Touchdown returns once again to the Garden of Madness! The evil Prince FU, a self-proclaimed superhero from the farthest reaches of the galaxy, has landed on Earth with his sights set on world conquest. In order to save humanity, our no-more-hero must fight to rise to the top of the Galactic Superhero Rankings, taking on each of FU’s nine alien henchmen before he can earn a title match against the prince himself. That’s right, nerds—No More Heroes 3 is back and better than ever on a host of new platforms! Everyone’s favorite otaku assassin, Travis Touchdown, has been forced out of retirement to defend not only Santa Destroy, but Earth itself. This time, “number-one assassin” won’t cut it; Travis will have to take on the superhero from beyond the stars in an intergalactic test of might. It’s his toughest challenge yet, but with a full repertoire of new abilities, tools, and jobs at his disposal, he’ll prove he’s more than a middle-aged has-been who talks to his cat. Dust off that beam katana, snap on those shades, and kill or be killed! Day 1 Edition contains a 5.3” x 7.3” softcover 70-page art book, a CD featuring select songs from the soundtrack, and a 7” x 4” Santa Destroy commemorative biker license plate, all in a custom box with an original illustration.
The PS5 version, naturally, runs and looks better than the Switch version. Outside of visuals and performance, though, nothing new is here. Well except for achievements. They’re pretty demanding too!
The Day 1 Edition includes a small art book (this appears to be perhaps a truncated version of the full size art book in other collector’s editions for NMH3), a music selection CD (haven’t messed with this yet), a completely in color manual that includes all of “Jeane’s tips” for the various enemies in the game, and last but not least, the “MOE~” Santa Destroy moped / mini license plate.
