Suda51 Urges for 'Killer7' Sequel

Resident Evil's Mikami and Killer7's Suda51 Hint at Sequel and Remaster

During a recent Grasshopper Direct presentation focused on Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered, Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil creator) and Goichi "Suda51" Suda sparked excitement among fans by discussing the possibility of both a Killer7 sequel and a complete edition of the cult classic.

Killer7: A Sequel or a Remaster?

Mikami openly expressed his desire for Suda51 to develop a Killer7 sequel, citing it as a personal favorite. Suda51, reciprocating the enthusiasm, hinted at the possibility, playfully suggesting titles like "Killer11" or "Killer7: Beyond."

The original 2005 GameCube and PlayStation 2 release of Killer7, a unique blend of action-adventure, horror, and Suda51's signature over-the-top style, gained a dedicated following despite lacking a sequel. Even after the 2018 PC remaster, Suda51 voiced his interest in expanding upon the original vision, suggesting a "Complete Edition" that would restore extensive cut dialogue for the character Coyote. While Mikami jokingly dismissed this as "lame," the team acknowledged the potential for a more comprehensive release.

The prospect of either a sequel or a complete edition has generated significant fan excitement. Although no firm commitments were made, the developers' expressed interest alone has fueled speculation about the future of Killer7. The final decision, according to Suda51, will determine whether "Killer7: Beyond" or the Complete Edition will be prioritized.
