Killer Is Dead gets August release, special editions detailed

Deep Silver has confirmed a release date and two collector’s editions of Killer Is Dead, the new title by Suda 51.

The highly-stylised action game will arrive on Xbox 360 and PS3 on August 30th. It sees players brutally taking down various outlandish criminals and is reminiscent of Suda’s previous titles such as Killer 7 and No More Heroes.

Publisher Deep Silver is readying two special editions alongside the standard SKU: the Fan Edition and Limited Edition.

The Fan Edition retails at 54.99 and comes with the Smooth Operator download pack, which contains an extra mission, new items such as X-ray specs and a new character for the presumably self-explanatory Gigolo Mode.

This SKU also features a poster, soundtrack CD, art book and exclusive packaging.

Meanwhile the Limited Edition costs 49.99, and includes the Smooth Operator.
