The ESRB has leaked PC versions of Marvelous’ and Grasshopper Manufacturer’s No More Heroes and No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle.
In late October, both titles were announced to be be heading to Nintendo Switch. You can find our review for No More Heroes here (we highly recommend it!) and No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle here.
Unsurprisingly, both listings on the ESRB website [1, 2] give the game a rating of Mature 17+. Due to Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Sexual Themes, Strong Language, and (in the case of the sequel) Partial Nudity.
UPDATE: An interesting point to theorize is whether the PC version will come to Steam or the Epic Game Store. It should be noted that Tencent became the largest shareholder in Marvelous in late May, and Tencent also own 40% of Epic Games.
You can find the rundown on both games (via Nintendo [1, 2]) below.
