Slimer Arrives in ‘Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord’ as Part of Third Free Content Update “Slimer Hunt” [Trailer]
On the heels of Slimer making a return in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, Sony and nDreams have revealed that the green spook is part of “Slimer Hunt”, the third content update for Ghostbuster: Rise of the Ghost Lord. The free DLC is available now, and also sees Dan Aykroyd reprising his role as Ray Stantz as you track down Slimer before he can unleash his unique brand of mischief in San Francisco.
In their latest Developer Update video, the development team at nDreams talked through this latest update and revealed the work that has gone into bringing Slimer Hunt into the game, which also included major atmosphere and animation changes.
Also arriving in this update are the flight suits of the original Ghostbusters as an in-game cosmetic, allowing players to get their nostalgia fix as they step into the iconic uniforms from the original movie.
Slimer Hunt certainly won’t be the last update for Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord. As mentioned in their post-launch roadmap back in December, the team is planning on something big for the aforementioned Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, which will see release in theaters on March 22, 2024.
Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord is available now on the PlayStation Store and Meta Quest Store.
Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.
Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”
Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.
And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
