Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord

Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord is an action adventure game based on the Ghostbusters license, originating from an iconic movie series. It was developed by nDreams, also responsible for games such as Phantom: Covert Ops and Fracked, with VR in mind.

Plot

Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord is set in the same world as the movies. We play as an original character leading the Ghostbusters HQ in San Francisco, tasked with repelling the threat of the titular Ghost Lord. First, however, we must face other visitors from the afterlife. Similarly to how it was presented in the original movies, ghost hunting here is humorous and doesn't take itself too seriously.

Mechanics

Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord is a first-person game (FPP). We must traverse various locations in San Francisco and capture ghosts using a retro-futuristic proton pack. By completing quests we gradually approach the final battle against the Ghost Lord.

Game modes

Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord supports singleplayer and four player co-op.

Technical aspects

Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord makes use of a colorful, cartoonish artstyle. The game is full of references to the Ghostbusters movies, such as the returning weapon designs and iconic sound effects.
