Challenge the keymaster and ascend humanity’s sole shelter

Ghostrunner is an exciting cyberpunk action game co-developed by 3D Realms, Slipgate Ironworks, and a Polish game development studio, One More Level for desktop, Playstation 4, and Xbox One consoles. Here, you will take the role of a cyber-warrior who will fight both in the physical world and in cyberspace. Your aim is to ascend the last remaining shelter tower that is torn by violence, poverty, and chaos and defeat its ruler, the Keymaster.

Action game at its finest

With the quality game it provides, many huge game critics positively compared Ghostrunner to various promising video games in the market. Forbes described it as a mix of Titanfall, Dishonored, and Superhot. Meanwhile, PC Gamer saw the game as a combination between Mirror's Edge and Dishonored. What makes the gameplay so interesting is its one-hit-one-kill core mechanic, which means that one attack is enough to kill an enemy or the hero.

This may sound like a burden for some, but you shouldn’t worry much as its respawning period is immediate. Once you fall, you will go back at the beginning of each section, which makes dying less punishing. During the game, you will encounter a series of platforming puzzles. You must carefully navigate while avoiding enemy fire in each section. Moreover, Ghostrunner integrates frantic first-person sword combat with amazingly fluid movement.

As you progress through the game, you will unlock other abilities. For instance, you'll develop the power to slit through incoming fire or bounce off bullets back at enemies. Not only that, but you can also encounter different types of enemies as you venture towards your journey up the tower—some of them wield swords and showcases similar moves to your character. These make the game highly replayable as it guarantees various and interesting showdowns.

Highly-anticipated

By far, the anticipation fo this game is enormous, and based on what the game exhibits, it is totally worth the wait. This action game guarantees you an exceptional, violent, and exciting game experience that you are longing for. You should definitely keep tabs on this cyberpunk game.
