News of a potential sequel to the cult classic Killer7 has sent ripples of excitement through the gaming community. The revelation came during a recent presentation featuring Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami and Killer7's visionary director, Goichi "Suda51" Suda.
Mikami and Suda Hint at Killer7 Sequel and Remaster
Killer7: Beyond or Killer11?
The Grasshopper Direct presentation, primarily focused on the upcoming Shadows of the Damned remaster, unexpectedly delved into the future of Killer7. Mikami openly expressed his desire for a sequel, calling the original one of his personal favorites. Suda51, mirroring Mikami's enthusiasm, hinted at the possibility of a Killer7 sequel, playfully suggesting titles like "Killer11" or "Killer7: Beyond."
The 2005 action-adventure title, renowned for its blend of horror, mystery, and over-the-top violence, has garnered a dedicated following despite lacking a sequel. Even the 2018 PC remaster didn't fully realize Suda51's original vision. He proposed a "Complete Edition" to incorporate cut content, specifically extensive dialogue for the character Coyote. While Mikami jokingly dismissed this as "lame," the discussion highlighted the potential for a more comprehensive release.
The prospect of either a sequel or a complete edition has ignited fervent fan speculation. Although no firm commitments were made, the developers' shared enthusiasm is enough to fuel anticipation for the future of this unique and beloved game. The ultimate decision, according to Suda51, rests on which project – Killer7: Beyond or the Complete Edition – takes priority.
