A new action title, Banishers: Ghosts Of New Eden, is on the way with these Banishers digging in for some new kind of ghost hunting
A whole new type of ghost-hunting game is on the way to the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC with the latest announcement for Banishers: Ghosts Of New Eden. This is the next big title that is coming out of DON’T NOD and Focus Entertainment after a ride of another great title out there. All in late 2023, but we have a good portion of Banishers: Ghosts Of New Eden to look at here to get us all further excited for it all. As long as you enjoy cinematics that set the theme and tone of the game with a little bit of gameplay to show us all what we might be able to expect once the game is fully done. All with a new interactive story in a setting that is usually set down for horror games and not just action titles out there.
As you will be able to see below, Banishers: Ghosts Of New Eden will be set in the 1695 era out there as we join Red and Antea who are out there banishing ghosts that are a problem out there. A little like we have seen in games like The Witcher, but with the duo having the specialty to banish ghosts instead of just killing them. Not to mention that one of these Banishers happen to be on the other side of the veil out there too. it looks as if they will be able to help us along the way as a bit of a loremaster and to guide us along the way. Not to mention jump into the mix and fight alongside us with some of the bigger beasts out there. Have a look to get a good feel for what is on the way to us all next year.
