Ghostrunner, the first-person cyberpunk action game from One More Level, 3D Realms, and Slipgate Ironworks will be launching on October 27. Marrying fast-paced close quarters action with stylish parkour mechanics, Ghostrunner takes place in a futuristic dystopia ruled by the tyrannical Keymaster – so you, taking on the role of a highly-trained warrior armed with a deadly katana, must climb the colossal Dharma Tower, face off against the Keymaster and stop them for good. Here’s what Dracolich had to say about the game back in June when he tried its demo during the Steam Game Festival:
“Ghostrunner, with its mysterious and action-packed storyline, high-octane pacing and well-executed cyberpunk aesthetic, looks like it could be the game that the grossly underwhelming Shadow Warrior 2 failed to become. Its atmosphere, narrative, and soundtrack (which complements the game perfectly) were all very much to my liking, and albeit the trial version generally takes no longer than 10-15 minutes to complete, its limited time frame somehow still offers a more satisfying and representative view of the game than even some of the lengthier demos out there.”
