‘Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed – Ecto Edition’ Now Available on the Switch and Steam
It just wouldn’t be the Halloween season without Ghostbusters. And for Switch fans, the day has finally arrived with the launch of Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed – Ecto Edition via the Nintendo eShop. Not only that, but Spirits Unleashed is also now available on Steam after being previously releases on the Epic Games Store.
“We are super excited to bring Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed to all gaming platforms,” says IllFonic CEO & Co-Founder Charles Brungardt. “As a lifelong fan of Ghostbusters, IllFonic has been hard at work to bring busting and haunting to all fans with the Ecto Edition. We are expanding the story, adding new maps, ghost types, and more.”
Also available as a free update for current players on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, the Ecto Edition includes a new story expansion, new ghost types, two new maps and more.
The story expansion adds several new story acts to the narrative progression of Spirits Unleashed, including a new adversary to battle. To access the new content, all you have to do is level up your character.
As for the new ghost type, the Overlord and its variants have arrived just in time for Halloween. This new ghost type is imbued with never-before-documented passive abilities that makes them even more difficult to tether. The Overlord’s aura emits a looming dread, compounding a creeping sense of fear within anyone in range. Overlords don’t “slime” or “shock” those in their way; rather, they devastate them by swiping with their claws, and hurling any physical objects that are in range.
For the new maps, we get a haunted restaurant in Petey’s Pirate Cove, and the Galway Subway Station, which has seen an influx of old-timey train cars and encounters with tormented apparitions.
Lastly, there’s a whole new assortment of cosmetics and gear shells to unlock, along with the usual bug fixes and improvements.

Horror Action-Adventure Title ‘EONA’ Appearing at Gamescom 2026; New Gameplay Trailer Released [Watch]
With gamescom 2026 right around the corner, developer/publisher SUPER AC has revealed that their upcoming horror adventure game EONA will be making an appearance at the show, which takes place from August 26-30. In addition, the team has revealed a new gameplay trailer, as well as announcing that the game will launch “just a few weeks” after gamescom.
Those attending gamescom will be able to play the final version of EONA at the SUPER AC booth, located in Hall 10.1, Booth A043. If you’re not able to attend, you can always check out the demo for the game on Steam.
EONA centres around the eponymous girl, who after a failed spell, has her soul split into two, with one half residing in a mysterious puppet. Eona must enter the castle of the evil fairy Mélusine and recover an artifact that is the only hope of saving her mother. But the path through the castle comes at a cost. To achieve her goal, Eona must uncover the castle’s secrets… and ultimately confront Mélusine herself.
Eona wields the Puppeteer’s Cross, a stolen artifact that allows her to manipulate the souls of the castle’s servants. By altering their behavior, redirecting their patrol routes, and disrupting the castle’s order, she can turn its own inhabitants against it. She can also swap between her human body and her puppet form, with each form granting unique abilities that are essential for delving deeper into the castle, reaching inaccessible areas, and uncovering its hidden secrets.
Blending stealth, exploration, puzzle-solving and soul manipulation, you’ll use Eona’s supernatural abilities to overcome obstacles—but never lose sight of your own body, which is completely vulnerable when using her puppet form.
In addition to Steam, EONA will also be launching on the Epic Games Store.
