Nintendo News | Ubisoft Adopts Travis Touchdown

Ubisoft and Grasshopper Manufacture have announced an agreement for the publishing giant to handle the release of the upcoming Wii-exclusive action game No More Heroes in the US.

"With No More Heroes, we wanted to create a game that allows players to be able to jump right in and play. The Wii allows us to create an open world where movement and gameplay feel very natural."
Suda 51, president of Grasshopper Manufacture.

"Ubisoft is excited to be bringing Suda 51's latest adventure to gamers in North America. Suda 51 is one of the most creative minds in gaming and No More Heroes is shaping up to be a visually stunning and immersive game with an extremely engaging storyline players will no doubt be drawn to."
Jay Cohen, vice president of publishing at Ubisoft.

Players worried about toned down content in the west can rest assured that Ubisoft aim to bring the game in its entirety to the US, expecting an 'M' for Mature rating.

No More Heroes is due in February 2008.
