October just got even busier with Ghostrunner 2 slated for the 26th

Slipping in between Alan Wake 2 and Alone In The Dark

All the snazzy vertical running, slashing, dashing and sliding is intact from the original game, only this time there’s a motorbike for some bonus cool points.Previous trailershad already shown off the steely vehicle and had me hoping (expecting) that an Akira-style bike slide would show up at some point in the game, because, let’s be real, this is a dystopian cyberpunk world with cool motorbikes. Of course we’re getting a slo-mo drift scene, right?

Matthew Castle (RPS in peace) had good things to say about the first game’s acrobatic murder spree. “I’ve heard the designers citeTitanfall 2as an inspiration and this is a similar six or so hours where every level adds a mechanical twist for ten minutes before parkouring to the next,” he wrote in hisGhostrunner review. “You’re hacking billboards to orient paths. No, you’re surfing drones between rooftops. Actually, you’re dodging low hanging signs atop a train. It’s never dull.” Hopefully, the sequel keeps up that momentum.

Ghostrunner 2 will be available onSteam,GOG, and theEpic Games Storeon October 26th. That’s the same week asCities: Skylines 2and TheMetal Gear SolidMaster Collection (October 24th), Alone In The Dark (October 25th) andAlan Wake 2(now Ocotber 27th). Phew!
