Killer7 is a game that's pretty hard to sum up and defies categorization. It's everything all at once - it's a bubbling pot of ideas thrown at the player which somehow manages to work. It's a frothing, fizzing thing that shouldn't hold together but absolutely does, and nearly 20 years later it's still held up as one of the greatest gaming experiences you can ever play. PC owners had to wait a long time to get their hands on it, and now six years after it arrived on Steam it's been given a fresh lick of paint. Read the rest of the story...

Killer7 is one of the most frightening, intense, original, and visionary games I've ever played. A co-production between Goichi 'Suda 51' Suda, of Grasshopper Manufacture, Lollipop Chainsaw, and Shadows of the Damned fame, and Shinji Mikami, one of the original masterminds behind the entire Resident Evil series, Killer7 originally arrived back in 2005. Now, almost two decades later, its creators discuss the possibility of both a relaunched "complete edition" and a full sequel. They even suggest some possible titles. Read the rest of the story...

Resident Evil creator and RE4 director Shinji Mikami teams up with Goichi 'Suda 51' Suda, the man behind Let It Die and Lollipop Chainsaw, for a slick, psychedelic, and terrifying Capcom horror game about invisible monsters and two gods fighting for control of reality. It's an excellent pitch, but somehow, in the history of the greatest games ever made, Killer7 is often forgotten. Originally released in 2005, if you haven't played it yet, or need an excuse to go through it again, you can get Killer7 right now for just under $5, and even play it on Valve's superlative handheld the Steam Deck.

Chinese publishers NetEase have bought Grasshopper Manufacture, the Japanese studio behind stylish, swaggering games including No More Heroes, The Silver Case, and Killer7. While NetEase have roots in mobile games, they have been investing in fancier things. Grasshopper say that with NetEase's cash, they plan to release "three even higher-quality 'Grasshopper Manufacture Games'" over the next decade. Read more

Morrissey lyrics scrawled on a wall in blood. A talking corpse wearing a t-shirt with the word FUNKY printed on it. A gift received from a severed head in a washing machine. These are just a few of the things you’ll encounter in Killer7, a bizarro PS2-era shooter that is now finally available on PC. It’s difficult to pin down exactly what Killer7 is. It has first-person shooting, third-person exploration, Resident Evil-style puzzles, and a selection of characters with unique abilities. But it combines these familiar ideas in a way that is totally original—and, often, utter

13 years after its original release on GameCube and PlayStation 2, Capcom's wonderfully idiosyncratic cult classic shooter Killer7 is now available on Steam. For those unfamiliar with the game (perhaps you just clicked on this story by mistake, or are of a naturally curious disposition), Killer7 was the brainchild of Goichi "Suda51" Suda - it was developed by his studio Grasshopper Manufacture - and Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami. The result of that strange meeting of minds is one of the oddest, most wilfully abstruse titles ever to come from a major publisher. On a very basic level, Kill
