Travis learns that the Death Bulldoze MK-II was designed equally a car that would create clones of its users, and that while it was initially intended for space travel, the government had re-purposed it to be a super soldier program - a prospect which caused Juvenile to demolition the project in an deed of defiance, and go into hiding. Despite this, the mother machine responsible for its protocols nevertheless lays fallow within the CIA, and Travis is warned that completing all six Death Ball games will crusade it to reboot, allowing the authorities to keep developing super soldiers. He is besides alerted that should it exist reactivated, Juvenile would destroy the United States in retaliation.

Despite warnings, Travis and Badman successfully complete every Decease Brawl; however ane of the games - Killer Marathon - turns out to be an incomplete version of the game. Every bit such, when they wish for Bad Girl's resurrection, she ends up being resurrected in the form of a dog. Travis later ends up locating a prototype for a Death Ball which, rather than transporting him into a video game, transports him directly into the CIA. Massacring his fashion through the facility he locates the Death Bulldoze mother automobile which is existence guarded by Dr. Juvenile, who has infiltrated the facility and taken the course of "White Sheepman". Travis, expressing respect for her talents and sympathy for her suffering, reluctantly battles and ultimately defeats her. He interacts with the mother machine and is transported to Mars, where he meets John Winter; the creator of the very original Death Drive and Juvenile's mentor. Winter explains that he retired to Mars to escape Earth'south problems, and safeguards the planet, opposing the government'southward plans to emigrate there. He offers Travis the opportunity to stay on Mars and live a perfect life. Travis declines, realizing that he can't abandon his by, and deciding to face his problems head on. Winter responds by decapitating Travis, as the only style for him to return is to "die".

Dorsum on Earth, Travis is approached by his self-proclaimed educatee, Shinobu Jacobs, who asks him to return from hiding to face the assassins. Travis remarks that it's fourth dimension for bloodshed. In a playable post-credits segment, Travis is controlled from a third person perspective like to the previous No More Heroes games, ready in a default Unreal Engine level.

When Travis questions the sudden presence of the new characters, Shinobu wonders whether they are foreshadowing "the adjacent game". The standoff is once once again interrupted, this time by Death & Drive, who take broken free of the Expiry Drive MK-II and are seeking revenge against Travis. He manages to beat them in a game of Fire Pro Wrestling, obtaining the location of the completed version of the Killer Marathon Decease Ball, which is in the possession of Travis' wife, Sylvia Christel.

Following the release of No More Heroes 2, Goichi Suda had been looking for an opportunity to go on the series, only became busy with other projects, such as his involvement with Let It Die.

He felt the game would fit in well among the planned Switch titles like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey.[6]

Suda considered the No More Heroes series every bit "fun slash 'em up kind of games", but with Travis Strikes Once more, he wanted to play around with the history of video games and the idea of retro games, and "how Travis would interact with the individual rules and the private vibe from each game".[12] The half dozen games are new games adult for the title, some in homages to existing indie games, with at least one being a vector scan game.[7] [8] [12] When originally announced, some took Suda's comments to reflect that the levels would exist set within actual indie games like Hotline Miami, but Suda later clarified that these games would be featured as "T-shirt collaborations", with Travis able to unlock and wear wear items that promote these indie games, a concept he came up with while seeing various game expositions similar PAX West.[13] One such title is Hyper Low-cal Drifter, with Nintendo of America showcasing Travis's shirt alongside announcing the game's release on the Switch.[14] Suda wanted players to see Travis as a fan of indie games, not only to requite recognition to the indie game scene, just due to his conventionalities that Grasshopper is similar to an indie developer, and he wanted to show his support of the upwards-and-coming smaller studios.[5] He estimated that there will be at least xv indie games represented in Travis Strikes Again, with titles to exist revealed as part of the ongoing promotion.[fifteen] The game would also see the add-on of t-shirts from The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker,[16] The Fable of Zelda: Majora's Mask [17] and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link [eighteen] that grant Travis a spin set on.

There will besides be sections of the game that use the standard gameplay approach equally the other No More Heroes titles.[12] One goal of the game for Suda was to take information technology be completely playable on a single Joy-Con controller for the Nintendo Switch version, simplifying the controls compared to the second game.[9] Reporters from Eurogamer and Polygon have taken Suda's comments that the game may support multiplayer, since the Switch supports two Joy-Con. Suda was unable to speak on this under confidentiality at PAX Due west, but did tell reporters who asked about this that there are "2 chief characters, so draw your ain conclusions, if you desire".[9] [19] [5]

Suda was nowadays for the live issue, and appeared on stage to prove a promotional image of Travis Touchdown wearing a shirt that said "Travis Strikes Once again";[23] however, no mention of the No More than Heroes series was fabricated. Suda said in a later interview that this was a purposeful choice, as he wanted the tease to feature Travis himself as the central focus.[12] The game was formally appear every bit Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes in an August 2017 Nintendo Direct, along with further reveals at the PAX West result a few days subsequently.[12] Suda noted that the title's ordering, placing the series' name after Travis Strikes Once more, was to allude to the fact he does not consider this game a direct sequel but instead "the offset of a new adventure, of a new series for Travis" merely that still otherwise takes place in the No More than Heroes universe.[9] Suda also stated that Travis Strikes Again serves as "something of a stepping stone on the route to No More Heroes 3", and hopes to make a truthful sequel if the game proves successful plenty.[24]
