Killer is Dead is Grasshopper Manufacture's stylised hack-and-slash about Mondo Zappa, a contract executioner who fights with a katana in one hand and a swappable cybernetic arm in the other. The PC Nightmare Edition ships a fixed QWERTY preset: the katana and the arm's gun share the mouse buttons, Space guards and dodges, and Q, F and Shift carry the guard break, Adrenaline Burst and healing.
20 default keybinds across 6
categories. Most can be reassigned in Killer is Dead – Nightmare Edition's control
settings.
