Hero Must Die. Again is coming west for PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC via Steam in spring 2020, publisher Degica Games and developers Pyramid and G-Mode announced.
Hero Must Die. Again first launched for PS Vita as Yuusha Shisu (Hero Dies) in February 2016 in Japan. The PS Vita version was adapted from the mobile version, which operated under the same name from 2007 to 2012. Though Japanese-only, the mobile version used “Hero Must Die” as its official English title, thus why the PS Vita version was referred to as such. For the western release, Degica has retitled it Hero Must Die. Again.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
