No More Heroes 3 Reviews
After more than a year of Nintendo exclusivity, No More Heroes 3 arrives to PC, PlayStation and Xbox consoles. The sequel definitely performs better in this new consoles and still is one of SUDA51 best works, although even with the Cel-Shading art style, the game can feel a little bit underwhelming graphically.

No More Heroes III is a semi-open-world title that is confusing as hell. With many side quests, loads of missions, and badass swordplay, this is a colourful and repetitive arcade fighting experience. Sadly, its strange ways won't be for everyone, but I enjoyed the madness nevertheless.
No More Heroes III is another elegantly crafted love letter to otaku culture and gamers but with the action cranked up to 10. Travis Touchdown is back for another over-the-top adventure. For those of us who waited for its premier on the PC and other consoles, it has been worth the wait.
Do not sleep on this wacky adventure. It is truly unlike almost anything I have ever played. It never failed to entertain me and I hope we see the two old games also ported to these new consoles. Give me all the Travis Touchdown.
No More Heroes 3 is a personality-soaked hack-and-slash beat-em-up featuring the obnoxiously charming Travis Touchdown. Though I had heard of the series before, this is my first time trying it out. Did my first adventure in the series go well? Find out in this Rapid Review.
I admit that my expectations for No More Heroes III were high. Despite the technical limitations, in the end the production met my expectations. As in previous titles, we have an adventure full of emotion and madness, extreme combat and that characteristic charm. I'm hoping this isn't the real end of the franchise and that, one day, we can once again have fun with Travis and friends.

No More Heroes 3 will regularly leave you thinking ‘what the hell did I just play’ but it’s vibrant style, cool presentation and quality handling helps reassure it was worth the time. Unfortunately, barren open world, grindy objectives and rough visuals bring the experience down just a bit.
No More Heroes 3 might have missed the extra point with some of its flaws. But a zany cast, fun combat and a nice selection of boss fights make Travis’ latest adventure still a touchdown in my book.
A strong third main entry in this insane series of brawlers, No More Heroes 3 is both accessible to new fans and daunting at the same time. A lot of it will make sense to fans, naturally, but may put off those just treading water. That being said, the main story is practically standalone, with some of the most colourful and creative bosses outside of a Souls game.
No More Heroes III for current-gen consoles addresses many of the visual performance issues of the 2021 Switch version while also preserving all the quirks, style and flash that made the original so enjoyable despite them, making it the definitive version that fans and newcomers alike should play.
No More Heroes III is not going to be the type of game that appeals to everyone, but if you are a fan of the franchise and Suda’s wild world then it’s an absolute treat. Now that some of the older performance issues are fixed and the visuals are upgraded, it’s the perfect time to give No More Heroes III a try. While a little more variety would have been appreciated, it’s hard to fault Suda for achieving what he set out to do.
No More Heroes 3 is the perfect example of a medicore video game. It delivers a fun combat and interesting boss fights but also suffers from disappointing side missions, repetitive main missions and an empty world. If you are a fan of old school Hack & Slash games, give it a try, otherwise there are other games that deserve your money!

No More Heroes 3 promises and delivers a good time for fans of the series as well as people who have never played any prior games.
For all its mistakes, anachronisms and lack of innovation, No More Heroes 3 is still the sequel we always wanted, and a must-have for fans of the series.

If this really is Suda51’s last major venture with Travis Touchdown, then it’s a passing ending for the “passing assassin.” There’s no re-invention here – if you got a kick out of the earlier games, then there is plenty for you to enjoy this time around. It might get a little stale as you fight a group of enemies in a Designated Fight for the umpteenth time, but at least you’ll look stylish doing it. If No More Heroes has never been your cup of wrestling-inspired ultraviolence, well, best move along then.
Despite having the same playable basis as previous titles, No More Heroes III adds enough playable improvements and novelties to notice a small evolution in the classic formula. Although the graphics section and performance are not its strong point, Goichi Suda's personal style and the freshness that he distills in each section make it a title to take into account.

Grasshopper Manufacture, XSEED Games and Marvelous’s No More Heroes 3 was awesome. From the epic voice acting, the craziness of, well everything, into the gameplay and presentation, Travis’ adventure was solid all around. Lasting anywhere between a dozen or so hours depending on how invested you are in the side content, there’s a NG+ just ready and waiting for you to go back for more!
Travis Touchdown is back to welcome some aliens to Earth, in a way only Suda 51 can manage.
Everything considered, No More Heroes 3 is an absolute treat on PS5. With the performance issues found in the Switch version a thing of the past, the visuals tidied up, and less waiting around for loading screens, you’re free to simply enjoy the zany story and wild action of Travis Touchdown’s latest caper. And what a rollercoaster of an experience it is. It won’t be for everyone, but if you have any love for the No More Heroes series or enjoy action games that are filled with silly humour and outrageous characters, this is for you.
