Critic Reviews
- 8.0 Romeo is a Dead Man is available now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Reviewed on Xbox Series X and PC with i7-12700KF, RTX 5070, 32gb RAM.
· Feb 21, 2026 Reviewed on PC, Series X|SRead full review - Romeo Is a Dead Man is as odd as you'd expect from a Suda51 game, but it doesn't quite come together into a coherent experience.
James O'Connor · Feb 11, 2026 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Suda51 returns with Romeo Is A Dead Man, a hack and slash mind-trip tale of starcrossed love. The Finger Guns review:
· Feb 11, 2026 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Romeo Is A Dead Man is a strong adventure filled with great and kooky action. And while it has some rough edges, especially with its performance, it makes up for that with a whole lot of heart.

· Feb 11, 2026 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Suda51, the man behind Lollipop Chainsaw and Shadows Of The Damned, returns with his weirdest and most entertaining game in several years.
· Feb 11, 2026 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Another off-kilter future cult classic from Grasshopper Manufacture 4.5 Punk as F*** Romeo is a Deadman is the latest fever dream from Grasshopper Manufacture.
· Feb 11, 2026 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Just as enjoyable as it is frustrating, Romeo Is a Dead Man is an incredibly uneven experience. You’ll love it one minute and hate it the next. Persevere with its more annoying elements, and you’ll discover a unique and entertaining hack and slasher at the end of it all. It just takes
Liam Croft · Feb 10, 2026 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Romeo is a Dead Man continues the bizarre, violent, and unexpectedly thoughtful style of game Suda51 has made a career out of creating, or in this case, shepherding. Looking at Grasshopper’s gameography, this one lives near the top of the ordered list for me. I was left wanting more from the love story incidentally promised by the protagonist’s names, but I was eager to keep playing to make Romeo stronger, see where I was going next, and learn more about the colorful cast of characters.
Kyle Hilliard · Feb 10, 2026 Reviewed on PS5 - An oddly emotional game, Romeo is a Dead Man is Suda51's best in years, marrying entertaining combat with pop culture references and constant creativity. Get through the game's somewhat flat start and you'll find auteur game design at its best – idiosyncratic, strange, and thoroughly enjoyable.

About the game
Trailers & Screenshots:
Latest ultra-violent sci-fi action title from Grasshopper Manufacture and Suda51.
Step into the blood-soaked boots of Romeo Stargazer, a man pulled back from the brink of death by a time paradox gone wrong. Now reborn as Agent Dead Man of the FBI Space-Time Division, and armed with the mysterious Dead Gear mask, Romeo must chase the universe’s most dangerous fugitives across alternate realities.
Blending high-octane gunplay, brutal sword combat, and over-the-top sci-fi insanity, Romeo Is a Dead Man is GhM’s bloodiest action game yet. Players can expect mind-bending twists, outrageous gimmicks, and a deeply cathartic combat system that turns enemies’ powers against them in universe-shattering battles.
As Romeo tears through the multiverse, he’s also on a desperate quest to find Juliet, his mysteriously vanished girlfriend. With a narrative that fuses love, loss, and metaphysical chaos, Romeo Is a Dead Man offers a stylish and unpredictable journey through the very fabric of time itself.
Can you survive the bleeding edge of space-time? Or will you become just another ghost in the paradox?
