Should you play it?

This is an asymmetrical game of hide and seek. In true form to IllFonic’s past titles, this title is a 4v1 setup where players will either play as part of a team of new Ghostbusters or a singular Ghost.

What works

  • Faithful ghostbusters experience with strong fan service
  • Fun and accessible asymmetrical multiplayer
  • Robust character and equipment customization
  • Offline mode with bots and full progression
  • No microtransactions, good value for price

Things to keep in mind

  • Limited story content and map variety
  • Ai bots sometimes behave poorly
  • Performance issues like frame drops reported
  • Smaller pc player base due to initial epic exclusivity
  • Some repetitive gameplay elements
