Renowned game producer Tsuyoshi Suda's latest action game, Hero No More 3, is about to be released at the end of this month, and the producer recently gave an interview to the media about the idea of a follow-up to the series, Hero No More 4, and a sequel.
In an interview with GameXplain, Suda said that publisher Marvelous owns 90% of the rights to Heroes, so it depends on the publisher's intentions if Grasshopper wants to develop Heroes No More 4. If he personally wants to make a sequel, it could take about 10 years, and both in the game and in reality.
He also revealed that the Heroes No Longer series is basically a replica of Rocky. Many of the stories of the game's protagonist pay homage to Rocky Balboa. So, if there is "Heroes No More 4", then the protagonist in the story will fight a super enemy in the north, and this enemy will be a re-edition of the villain in Rocky 4.
Although Tervilas has always been the only protagonist in the Heroes No longer series, in an interview with Tsuyoshi Suda also stated that he personally wanted to make a female ninja game featuring the supporting character Shinobu. But also because the copyright belongs to Marvelous, he himself cannot give a definitive answer.
Although 10 years of practice may seem like a long time, there is a gap of 12 years between "Hero No More 2" and "Hero No More 3" released this year, so "Hero No More 4" may not be far away.
