No More Heroes 3 may have just only launched a couple of months ago, but that hasn’t stopped Grasshopper Manufacture from getting ready for the foreseeable future. In an interview with Video Games Chronicles, Co-Founder and CEO of Grasshopper Goichi Suda, better known as Suda 51, gave a fairly detailed outline for the company’s next step, which has apparently already begun its process. Suda 51 explains this as the Ten Year Plan, which will include three brand new IPs, with the possibility of some potential remakes or reboots of older titles that he’s made.

Suda 51 explained to the publication that they’ve already started on the pre-production stages for their next IP, “We’ve actually already begun the pre-production stuff on the first title, but I can’t say anything about it just yet.” Since it’s extremely early in development, it’s anyone’s guess as to what this new IP will be, let alone the other two that have yet to even begin development. Suda 51 also mentioned that these titles will be somewhere between a major AAA title and an indie title, “While I wouldn’t say the games we plan to make are going to be full-on AAA titles, they aren’t exactly going to be really small-scale or anything” He explained. “The games themselves will be around AA-level scale, and the core team making them will be a relatively compact team.”

As for those potential remakes, Suda 51 stated that there would be some titles that he would more than likely not be able to reboot, most notably, Killer7. That title still belongs to Capcom, as it was done in a deal with the company for the Gamecube way back in 2005 and was also co-written by Shinji Mikami. However, there are other several IPs that his company does have the rights to that could be a possible candidate for a remake. This includes Shadows of the Damned and Killer is Dead, two titles that have developed cult followings since their original release in 2011 and 2013 respectively.

Lastly, and perhaps a little tongue in cheek, Suda 51 mentions the idea and prospect of working with Nintendo on some of their older IPs. He doesn’t give any by name, but Suda 51 refers to them as having been “dormant for a long time.” Should that day ever come, it would be a surprise and widely celebrated one for the gaming community.
