San Francisco - September 20, 2007 - Today, Ubisoft, one of the world's largest video game publishers, announced that it will publish No More HeroesTM, the highly anticipated action game by acclaimed game designer Goichi Suda (Suda 51) and his studio Grasshopper Manufacture, Inc. No More Heroes will arrive at retailers in North America for February 2008, exclusively for the WiiTM home video game system from Nintendo®.

No More Heroes tells the story of Travis Touchdown, an anime fan who lives in the fictional town of Santa Destroy, California.

"With No More Heroes, we wanted to create a game that allows players to be able to jump right in and play," said Suda 51, president of Grasshopper Manufacture. "The Wii allows us to create an open world where movement and gameplay feel very natural."
