The recipe for the first episode is always followed to the letter by the Poles of One More Level, whose motto could easily be “always further, always higher, always stronger!”. Because Ghostrunner 2 does everything to push the knobs thoroughly. Beyond his brand new motorcycle, Jack also gains a grappling hook to increase his agility tenfold when he was already rather swift. It will take some great reflexes to string together his new abilities without missing a single beat. Still as arcade-oriented and die ‘n return, Ghostrunner 2 also shows a gleaming plastic that does honor to next gen platforms.
Honey, it’s gonna cut
“New powers, upgradable skills, freedom to explore, deep lore and new enemies are what players can expect with Ghostrunner 2“, we swear. Jack will indeed play in the sand and the ruins of the old world, as evidenced by the first images, where disturbing emaciated ghouls prowl the forgotten cities. And if we could easily believe that the first game was only a primary stress reliever, which he certainly did very well, the universe was not pink for all that, and deepen the lore can only do us good. The Dharma Tower and cyberspace will also be on the menu.
505 Games assures that the action will always take place against the backdrop of synthwave music. However, they do not specify if the illustrious Daniel Deluxe will return to the decks.
Ghostrunner 2 will be available in 2023 on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
