Did Lollipop Chainsaw turn a profit? The answer is: yes. In the first two years of release, the hack-and-slash story sold over 1,000,000 copies. Lollipop Chainsaw 2. This page is here to update you on the latest trailer and release date for the upcoming game.

The hack n’ slash genre is one that’s most often dominated by male characters, but 2012’s Lollipop Chainsaw decided to make the genre a little sweeter.The iconic title from Grasshopper Manufacture starred the unforgettable cheerleader and zombie-killer, Juliet Starling. Wielding a chainsaw, a skimpy outfit and carrying her boyfriend Nick’s head, this was one of the goriest, funniest and nastiest games of the year. Oh, and it also had the talents of game developer SUDA51 and filmmaker James Gunn behind it. “That’s something that we seem to hear a lot of people wanting to see more of. Whether or not that is the original game being released on a new platform, or whether it is a sequel, that’s something that a lot of people seem to want, and we think would be kind of cool to do.” Credit: Grasshopper ManufactureIt might be a while before we hear whether or not our wishes will come true though, as SUDA admits: “Yeah I would like to make a new one, but it would be a really hard thing to do.“First of all, the IP is owned in cooperation with Warner and Kadokawa Games so obviously I’d have to get their okays before I did anything like that. But, yeah, if I could work again with James Gunn and do a co-operation and create a new Lollipop Chainsaw, I think that would be a lot of fun!”.
