Mikami and Suda Hint at Killer7 Sequel and Remaster
Killer7: Beyond or Killer11?
During the Grasshopper Direct, focusing primarily on the upcoming *Shadows of the Damned* remaster, Shinji Mikami and Goichi "Suda51" Suda discussed the possibility of both a *Killer7* sequel and a complete edition.Mikami declared his desire for a sequel, calling Killer7 a personal favorite. Suda51 mirrored this enthusiasm, suggesting a sequel might be in the cards someday. He even playfully tossed around potential titles like "Killer11" or "Killer7: Beyond."
Killer7, a 2005 action-adventure game blending horror, mystery, and Suda51's signature over-the-top style, has cultivated a devoted fanbase despite lacking a sequel. Even after a 2018 PC remaster, Suda51 indicated interest in revisiting his original vision.
Suda51 advocated for a Killer7 Complete Edition, an idea Mikami jokingly dismissed. However, the discussion revealed that the original game concept included extensive dialogue for the character Coyote, which could be restored in such a release.
The mere suggestion of a sequel or a complete edition sent fans into a tizzy. While nothing is confirmed, the developers' shared enthusiasm has ignited significant excitement for the future of Killer7.
Mikami suggested a Complete Edition would be well-received, prompting Suda51's playful response: "We'd have to decide which comes first, Killer7: Beyond or the Complete Edition."
