Deep Silver snaps up Killer Is Dead European publishing rights

Koch Media owned publisher Deep Silver has added another notable title to its ranks – Grasshopper’s Killer Is Dead.

The game was detailed last week by creator Suda 51, who described it as a title that picks up where Killer7 and No More Heroes left off”.

Deep Silver will publish the game in Europe and Oceania while XSEED will handle publishing duties in North America.

The game is due out on PS3 and Xbox 360 this summer.

Koch last week added former THQ properties Saints Row and Metro to its roster of IP. Other titles in the Koch family include Dead Island, Sacred and Risen, and was once the publisher of STALKER.
