Inside No More Heroes: Red Zone Edition
What it is
No More Heroes: Red Zone Edition is essentially a Japanese port of No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise released to English audiences. The Japanese release of Heroes' Paradise does not include PlayStation Move support or the additional Desperate Struggle bosses, among other things implemented for the overseas version, however these appear in the reissued Red Zone Edition, along with ten missions removed from the original game and online leaderboards for a "boss rush" mode.
The premise
The story follows Travis Touchdown, who is a stereotypical otaku – his motel room decorated with professional wrestling and anime collectibles – living in near poverty in the No More Heroes motel of the fictional town of Santa Destroy, California. After winning a beam katana in an internet auction, he runs out of money to buy video games and wrestling videos. After meeting with Sylvia Christel, he accepts a job to kill Helter Skelter, also known as "the Drifter," which earns him rank 11 by the United Assassins Association, a governing body of assassins. Realizing that he has the opportunity to make it to the top, he sets out to secure himself the coveted position of number one assassin in the UAA.
