Picture this; you’re navigating a dystopian world where challenges lurk around every corner.
As your avatar dashes through the digital landscape, dodging obstacles and surging forward with unstoppable determination.
Does this get your adrenaline pumping?
Here’s everything we know aboutGhostrunner 2.
What is Ghostrunner 2?
Ghostrunner 2will likely be another balletic symphony of chaos and precision.
Every leap, slash, and dash feels like a choreographed dance of destruction.
The cityscape stretches before you, a sprawling playground of high-tech architecture and treacherous platforms.
Mara destroys all the peacekeeper units, but Jack gets rebooted back to life.
All hope now lies with the Ghostrunner.
The epilogue showcases the ghost runner assuming sentience by killing the Architect and referring to himself as Jack.
With resurrection already possible in the game, the Architect may be the sequel’s antagonist.
Or will we face a new terror?
Its gameplay is a mesmerizing display of speed, precision, and futuristic parkour prowess.
As the eponymous Ghostrunner, you embody the perfect blend of cybernetic agility and deadly proficiency.
Every move you make pairs with lightning-fast reflexes, propelling you through a dystopian world with graceful finesse.
Including new weapons and abilities will undoubtedly raise the bar for the sequel.
What’s certain is that the team will prioritize the title’s gameplay.
Also, we could be looking at a multiplayer feature that may be competitive or cooperative.
Personally, I’d want to see how the combat system runs in a competitive multiplayer scenario.
Development
Ghostrunneris a mutually forged game by Slipgate Ironworks and One More Level.
The game is co-published by All In!
Games and 505 Games.
The latteracquired the game’s IP licensein 2021 for a whopping 5 million from one source.
Well, that’s a neat figure to pay for a brilliant masterpiece.
Impressively, by the time of the announcement,Ghostrunnerhad sold half a million copies.
The sequential play of events and spectacular visuals had a hand in the game’s success.
Not every day do you see an action platformer rise the ranks faster than a comet streaking.
Neither did it feature in the 505 Games Spring 2022 showcase.
However, officially released artwork points to a dystopian atmosphere with a possible return of the humanoids.
In case you missedGhostrunner’strailer, you might watch it above.
Presumably, we’ll see the sequel in Q4, 2023.
Moreover,Ghostrunner 2will launch on PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
A Nintendo Switch may launch later in 2024.
However, many gamers reported issues with poor texture, screen tearing, and unstable frame rates.
