ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN Set to Shatter Space-Time on PC and Consoles 11th February 2026

Suda51’s latest bloody action masterpiece launches early next year, delivering a violent, stylish, sci-fi spectacle.
Grasshopper Manufacture Inc. (GhM) has officially broken the space-time continuum to launch its newest action title, ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN, earlier than expected. The game will hit PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam on February 11, 2026. Fans can wishlist the game now on Steam.
ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN is the first original IP from GhM and Goichi “Suda51” Suda—known for No More Heroes, The Silver Case, and Shadows of the Damned—in more than five years. The game fuses GhM’s trademark blood-drenched, over-the-top action with a chaotic, multiverse-spanning narrative only Suda51 could create.
Are you ready to become a Dead Man?
Snatched from the brink of death by donning the mysterious “DeadGear” mask, FBI Space-Time Special Agent Romeo Stargazer is resurrected—sort of. Now trapped between life and death as the entity known as **DeadMan**, Romeo must chase the universe’s most dangerous fugitives across shattered dimensions.
Armed with an arsenal of guns, melee weapons, and his own reckless determination, Romeo faces the chaos of a broken reality while confronting the sudden disappearance of his enigmatic girlfriend, Juliet.
“Now we’ve won our game of chicken against *cough* a certain twice-delayed 2026 release, we can reveal our cards and confirm we never intended to launch in May in the first place,” said Goichi “Suda51” Suda, Executive Director, Scenario Writer, and Producer at Grasshopper Manufacture. “We’re warping space-time to put the finishing touches on ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN ahead of its launch next February.”
