The latest trailer for Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden takes gamers on a deeper dive into the gameplay and mechanics they’ll use throughout their play time.
We’re inching closer and closer to Banishers‘ release date (just a couple weeks away), and today brings our best look at the gameplay so far.
New Eden, 1695: Antea and Red are lovers and Banishers, trained spirit-hunters, protecting people from lingering specters. In a world full of occult danger, play as both characters, face difficult choices and make hard decisions while fighting all kinds of nightmarish creatures, combining Red’s weaponry with Antea’s spectral abilities.
In this new trailer, you’ll navigate the lands of New Eden, learning more about your purpose as Banishers and how to help lift the curse affecting its people – while dealing with your own tragedy as lovers: one living, one dead. Discover a mix of combat styles with Red’s rifle, sword, and firebane alongside Antea’s ethereal attacks. With her otherworldly skills, unveil the unseen and unleash devastating spiritual attacks, from teleportation to spectral damage zones. Switch characters effortlessly to create combos and powerful synergies as you face increasingly malicious foes.
Every soul you banish, every spirit you grant peace, every life you sacrifice to save Antea will inexorably guide you towards one ending or another. Will you be a merciful savior or a relentless banisher?
Immerse yourself in a beautiful, intimate and powerful story between two fated lovers. As Banishers, enter the lives of New Eden’s communities and solve haunting cases in a mystical, lore-rich world plagued with supernatural creatures and ancient secrets. Use your wits or combine Antea’s spiritual powers and Red’s arsenal to defeat and banish the souls tormenting the living.
Challenging decisions will lie on your path, dramatically impacting your story and the fate of New Eden’s inhabitants—be they living people or wandering souls. With Antea now being a ghost herself, will you honor your Banisher oath or sacrifice the living in a desperate bid to bring your beloved back?
Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden hits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PCs on February 13, 2024.
