A third-person action game from Grasshopper Manufacture - the creators of Shadows of the Damned, Lollipop Chainsaw and No More Heroes series. In Romeo is a Dead Man we play as the titular agent, hunting fugitives through time and space. The game is heavy on fast and very bloody combat.
Romeo is a Dead Man is a brutal action game developed by Grasshopper Manufacture studio. We're talking about a Japanese development team, with projects in their portfolio such as the No More Heroes series, Lollipop Chainsaw, and Shadows of the Damned.
The main character of Romeo is a Dead Man is the titular Romeo Stargazer. Five seconds before leaving this vale of tears, the protagonist is saved and trapped between life and death. From now on he as a special agent for the FBI dedicated to matters of time and space. He must engage in hunting the most wanted fugitives, whom he pursues through various universes. Somewhat incidentally, the protagonist tries to find out what happened to his suddenly missing girlfriend - Julia.
In Romeo is a Dead Man the action is viewed from a third-person perspective (TPP). We explore various locations related to the fugitives and engage in combat with opponents.
The clashes are dynamic, and during them we make use of melee weapons (led by swords) or firearms (such as rifles and shotguns). We can also beat the enemies with our fists. On our way, we encounter both ordinary opponents, which we eliminate in large groups, and bosses who are significantly more powerful than them.
A distinctive feature of this game is a high degree of brutality. Blood flows here exceptionally thick, and severed limbs fly through the air. All of this was presented in a grotesque way.

Wccftech: 8.7 / 10 by Francesco De Meo
ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN is a brilliant, fever-dream rollercoaster, made by Suda51 and Grasshopper Manufacture at their absolute peak. By leaving behind the empty world of No More Heroes III in favor of a tightly paced, linear, almost "Soulslike on steroids" experience, the studio has delivered its most mechanically polished and visually eclectic experience to date, and a statement against the sanitized, risk-averse nature of modern AAA gaming.
DualShockers: 9 / 10
No matter how dense it all gets, there’s always a method to the madness, a consistent, player-friendly path forward that ensures you can keep making progress at a steady clip, even when the game gets notably difficult. Any complaints I could make are nitpicks at best; if you also love Suda’s works, you owe it to yourself to play this one, and if you’ve never played any of his games before, this is an excellent one to start with.
GamesCreed: 4.5 / 5 by Maisie Scott
ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN works because it is daring, not because it is perfect. This action game is still quite intriguing, even though it has several problems. It’s driven by style, heart, and a clear mission that makes chaos seem weirdly significant.
