Killer Is Dead is a hack and slash title from Grasshopper Manufacture that released last August for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. At the time, PC gamers were left out to dry, but luckily it has now been announced that Deep Silver will be bringing the game to PC with Killer Is Dead – Nightmare Edition on May 9.
The additional content includes a new difficulty mode called Nightmare Mode. In this mode, enemies can only be defeated using the following attacks: Adrenaline Burst, Dodge Burst, Headshots, so the gameplay requires far more skill and tactics. Players will also not be able to use the Final Judgement finisher (QTE mode) to defeat enemies. Also included is the Smooth Operator Pack for console, unlocked after Episode 3. Additionally there is a new Theater Mode where players can rewatch cutscenes and get extended background information on characters, helping to unravel the story after the first playthrough.
For those that are interested in picking this up on PC, Killer Is Dead – Nightmare Edition will only set you back $19.99. A trailer for the port can be seen below:
