Cyberpunk Hack and Slash Game ‘Ghostrunner 2’ Available Now [Trailer]
Admittedly, Alan Wake II is taking up most of the attention today, but don’t count out 505 Games and One More Level’s Ghostrunner 2. Revealed back in May, the first-person cyberpunk hack and slasher is available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store and GOG, complete with a new launch trailer to get you in the mood.
The launch trailer shows off the mononymously-named protagonist Jack sporting the slick parkour and acrobatics we’ve been expecting, along with healthy amounts of plasma and severed limbs in glorious slow motion. We’re also treated to Jack taking off in his new motorcycle, set against the backdrop of synthwave and dark electronic beats from the returning Daniel Deluxe, Arkadiusz Rejkowski, Dan Terminus, We Are Magonia, GosT and more.
Set one year after the events of the original Ghostrunner, the high-octane sequel follows cyber ninja Jack as he fights a violent AI cult. Wield a razor-sharp katana once more, and slice through the relentless onslaught of frenzied cultists, cybernetic warlords, and terrifying AI entities both in and, for the first time, outside of Dharma Tower.
Engage in vehicular combat, weaving through obstacles and knocking down enemies on a high-speed motorcycle. On foot, Jack embraces his iconic parkour and Gap Jammer move set from the original game, improved and expanded upon for quick traversal across varying surfaces in both neon-lit urban environments and a sand-blasted wasteland. Stylishly slide, dash, and evade deadly attacks from a range of new adversaries.
Ghostrunner 2 ups the ante with new abilities and a revamped progression system. Explore new combat options and find the right approach to dodge, parry, and destroy foes capable of killing Jack with one strike. Defeat bosses with increased freedom, learning how to overcome with their devious new tricks.

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.
