Revealed earlier this year, Sony has revealed new details (including a title) for their upcoming Ghostbusters VR game set to arrive in 2023!
Halloween is the perfect time to give fans more details on an upcoming Ghostbusters game (different from the recently launched Spirits Unleashed), and that’s exactly what Sony Pictures Virtual Reality have done. Back in April of this year, during the Meta Quest Game Showcase, they revealed a new VR game set in the Ghostbusters universe. Today, they’ve offered a bit more details, including the official title. Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord is set to hit Meta Quest 2 and PlayStation VR2 next year:
This exciting new chapter in the world of Ghostbusters will see players step into the boilersuits of a new cast of characters at the start of their journey running their own ghost-busting headquarters out of San Francisco. Legendary locations in the city such as the Golden Gate Bridge will be brought to life across an extensive and engrossing campaign where players can go solo or team with up to three friends in co-op to stop the powerful Ghost Lord and his band of malevolent ghosts from causing chaos throughout the city. With the ability to wield and upgrade iconic Ghostbusters equipment and customize elements of their characters’ look, Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord lets players truly live the life of a Ghostbuster with all of the fun and frights that come with it.
“Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord pits you and your proton pack against the newest, biggest villain inside a totally immersive VR Ghostbusters universe. We’re excited to give fans this first look,” said Jake Zim, Senior Vice President, Virtual Reality, Sony Pictures Entertainment.
“We love collaborating with the Sony Pictures Virtual Reality team to bring the world of Ghostbusters into VR through a new story that will delight Ghostbusters fans, both old and new,” said Tomas Gillo, Chief Development Officer, nDreams.
