Development and release
Liberation Maiden was result of its creative director Goichi Suda's interest in developing for the PS3, which dates back to before the release of the console.[2] It features animated cutscenes created by Studio BONES and the main theme song, "Day of Liberation" (解放の日, Kaihno Hi), performed by Marina.[3] Liberation Maiden shares stylistic traits with other material from Grasshopper Manufacture's repertoire, particularly Pure White Lover Bizarre Jelly, an in-game anime within the No More Heroes universe.
The game was released in Europe And North America on November 21, 2017, and individually in Japan on November 14, 2016. A later high-definition version was released internationally for the PS3 systems on March 7, 2013.[4]
