Ghostrunner Will Get A Next-Gen Version, Too

It was expected to happen: as the PlayStation 5‘s and the Xbox Series‘ launch are close to the game’s arrival, it was a question of time when their respective ports get announced.

All In! Games and 505 Games (we still can’t get over the fact that there are two publishers, albeit the latter is responsible for the console distribution) and One More Level, 3D Realms, and Slipgate Ironworks (three dev teams – confused enough yet?) confirmed on 505’s website that the PlayStation 5, the Xbox Series X, and the Xbox Series S will also get the game… but only in 2021. However, the PlayStation 4 > PlayStation 5 and the Xbox One > Xbox Series upgrade will be free, which is fair. (And weird, seeing that 505 is involved: Control: Ultimate Edition, which is required for the next-gen upgrade on consoles, will be a paid upgrade for many customers!)

Ghostrunner is a hardcore first-person perspective slasher packed with lightning-fast action, set in a grim, cyberpunk megastructure. Climb Dharma Tower, humanity’s last shelter, after a world-ending cataclysm. Make your way up from the bottom to the top, confront the tyrannical Keymaster, and take your revenge. The streets of this tower city are full of violence. Mara the Keymaster rules with an iron fist and little regard for human life. As resources diminish, the strong prey on the weak and chaos threatens to consume what little order remains. The decisive last stand is coming. A final attempt to set things right before mankind goes over the edge of extinction.

As the most advanced blade fighter ever created, you’re always outnumbered but never outclassed. Slice your enemies with a monomolecular katana, dodge bullets with your superhuman reflexes, and employ a variety of specialized techniques to prevail. One-hit one-kill mechanics make combat fast and intense. Use your superior mobility (and frequent checkpoints!) to engage in a never-ending dance with death fearlessly. Ghostrunner offers a unique single-player experience: fast-paced, violent combat, and an original setting that blends science fiction with post-apocalyptic themes. It tells the story of a world that has already ended and its inhabitants who fight to survive,” the game’s Steam page says.

Ghostrunner launches first on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store) on October 27 for 30 USD/EU.
