‘Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord’ Available Now on PSVR2 and Meta Quest [Trailer]
Sony Pictures Virtual Reality and developer nDreams are ready for you and your friends to bust some ghosts with Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord available now on the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, Quest 3 and Quest Pro. Meta Quest users get an additional treat with Mini-Puft Mayhem, the minigame showcasing Quest 3’s mixed-reality capabilities.
“It’s time for players to step into the immersive world of Ghostbusters in a way that’s only possible with virtual reality,” says Jake Zim, Senior Vice President, Virtual Reality, Sony Pictures Entertainment. “Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord puts the power of the proton pack into the hands of those eager to bust their way through this iconic universe. With so many ways to play, and the ability to team up with up to three friends on PS VR2 and Meta Quest headsets with crossplay, the fun of busting ghosts is endless. This is just the beginning, and we have so much more to share with our players in long-term support for the game.”
Players who pre-ordered the Full Containment Edition prior to launch can now equip their exclusive ‘Gold Rush’ proton pack skin in-game at the San Francisco HQ workbench. New recruits to the Ghostbusters universe can expect six months of free and paid downloadable content, with the first of many character skins, ‘Alice Aces,’ available for purchase today on all platforms.
Rise of the Ghost Lord 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.
Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord is available now on the PlayStation Store and Meta Quest Store for $34.99 USD. The Full Containment Edition, which bundles six months of post-launch DLC, is available for $54.99 USD on the PlayStation Store and Meta Quest Store.
Fans waiting patiently to return to the world of Senua in Ninja Theory’s Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II can finally do so today. The sequel to 2017’s award winning Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is available now on PC via Steam, the Xbox Series, and Xbox Game Pass.
Hellblade II takes place after the events of the previous game, where Senua has returned from Hel. Confronted with the devastation of her homeland at the hands of Viking raiders, Senua undertakes a brutal journey of survival through the myth and torment of Viking Iceland in order to exact revenge for the victims of the raiders.
The new trailer continues what we’ve previously seen from the game in terms of its visuals, as well as touching on the psychological horror aspects, as Senua must grapple with the effects of her psychosis. At the same time, these voices also serve as a guide for Senua.
At the same time, we’re also given glimpses of the revamped combat that awaits Hellblade II, which certainly gives off that “visceral” feel that Ninja Theory had alluded to during development.
And for those who “walked in late”, you can also get up to speed for Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II with the recap trailer that Ninja Theory released last week.
