How To Get The True Ending in No More Heroes 3

If you're bracing yourself for some sort of secret sequence of events you need to complete, stop worrying. You've just beaten a whole game. You're not going to have to do anything super difficult now. Unless you didn't beat the game, of course. If you didn't, stop reading and go do that, then come back.

Great, you're back. Okay, check this out: When you finish the game, you'll be greeted with a set of cut scenes. We won't spoil them here for you so you can kick back and enjoy them yourself, but there will be a few very big revelations thrown at you, especially in terms of Travis Touchdown's saga.

So relax, watch the ending scenes, and then let the credits roll. You may be tempted to walk away and let them run to their completion. Don't do this. Instead, hang out, check out some of the names, look at your phone if you must. Whatever you do, don't skip them. Wait until they end, and then you'll see a scene begin: the True Ending of No More Heroes 3.

That's right -- no special conditions to fulfill, nothing you need to remember to do that changes the way things shake out. Just wait and be patient, and all will be revealed. You'll see a special short film that will wrap up some of the questions you may have upon reaching the end -- particularly, about a certain Henry Cooldown. But we'll leave that all for you to discover.

Now, enjoy your reward for both finishing the game and waiting for the credits to finish. And we can't forget remaining a fan for all this time. What does the future hold for No More Heroes? We'll have to wait and find out what springs forth from Suda51's maniacal mind.
