Haunt or Hunt as IllFonic’s GB:SU Possesses STEAM and Switch Platforms with the Ecto Edition.

October 19, 2023 (Lakewood, Col.) – Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed – Ecto Edition, a 4v1 haunt-or-hunt action-packed video game from the asymmetrical multiplayer experts at IllFonic, will be joining both the STEAM and Nintendo Switch family on October 19, 2023. Rated E10+, the game will be available in the STEAM Store here and the My Nintendo Store here for $19.99.

A physical version of Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed – Ecto Edition will be released from our physical partner, Nighthawk Interactive, later this year. Fans of Ghostbusters, STEAM, and Nintendo will now have the chance to unite forces or rally against current PC/Epic Games Store, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One users as the game supports crossplay across all platforms.

“We are super excited to bring Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed to all gaming platforms.” IllFonic CEO & Co-Founder Charles Brungardt shares. “As a lifelong fan of Ghostbusters, IllFonic has been hard at work to bring busting and haunting to all fans with the Ecto Edition. We are expanding the story, adding new maps, ghost types, and more.”

Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed – Ecto Edition is truly the full game package for new players with the digital version for only $19.99, and current players will receive all of the following with a FREE update. The Ecto Edition will include:

• Main Narrative Story Expansion – several new story acts to the narrative progression of Spirits Unleashed. New twists and turns give the occupants of the Firehouse a new, challenging adversary to contend with, along with new conversations to have. Level up to unlock and enjoy the updated and extended narrative.

• New Ghost – 
• Overlord Ghost Type – The Overlord. An unrelenting spectral force. Unlike other specters who prefer to hide, the Overlord SEEKS. Born of pain, fear, and darkness, the Overlord is as mighty as they are clever. They’re imbued with never-before-documented passive abilities that make them even more difficult to tether. The Overlord’s aura emits a looming dread, compounding a creeping sense of fear within anyone in range. Alas, don’t expect Overlords to “slime” or “shock” those in their way; rather, they devastate them by swinging their deadly claws and hurling any physical objects they can sink their P.K.E. into. Wrangling with an Overlord is quite a horrifying challenge, any way you set it. 

• Overlord – Samhain Variant – Behold the Ghost of Halloween! Samhain is pure malevolence, driven by the unholy desire to create a sprawling legion of darkness under his evil command. The earliest accounts of Samhain date back to the seventh century. The Celts held massive feasts in his name, though whether to entice or deter him is somewhat unclear. Regardless, his immense power and command over other creatures, living and… nonliving, is irrefutable. On the very rare occasion that Samhain has been defeated and imprisoned, he has broken free from his shackles and risen again. Stronger… and angrier.

• Overlord – Darklock Variant – Anguish is a feeling many are aware of, but few have truly experienced. Well, be assured, it is the goal of the Darklock to guarantee EVERYONE becomes intimately familiar. As long as suffering has existed, so too has this twisted type of Overlord. Facing off against the Darklock is harrowing, indeed, not only because of the pain it can inflict but also because of the twisted sense of euphoria it emanates while feeding off the foolish few who try to stand in its way.

• Overlord – Gravebringer Variant – Human fear of death manifested, the Gravebringer drinks dread the way the modern-day skin bags imbibe pumpkin-spiced lattes; guzzled by the gallon! The Gravebringer seeks to unlock true darkness within the heart of the hopeless. Brave men and women have been left nothing more than quivering husks after only a few moments in the Gravebringer’s presence. Isolating the weakest link in the chain and dismantling one’s resolve is a favorite pastime of this corporeal monstrosity. No other creature in any realm sends a chill up a spine like the Gravebringer.

• 2 New Maps – 
• Petey’s Pirate Cove – ‘For libations and fun, don’t walk, but run to Petey’s Pirate Cove!’ Scallywags and buccaneers alike will find games galore, grog by the gallon, and more ghostly apparitions than a sunken shipwreck. Shiver me timbers, indeed!

• Galway Station – Subway patrons report sightings of ghostly old-timey train cars and encounters with tormented apparitions in the underground, particularly around Galway Station.

• Ghost Bounties

• Character and Gear Loadouts

• New Gear Shells to Unlock

• New Cosmetics and Added Tenure Level

• Countless UX, UI, Gameplay Improvements, and MORE!

Technical details on the Nintendo Switch:

The team has been hard at work adapting the game for Switch. Performing at a dynamic resolution from a range of 720 (handheld mode) to 1080p at the maximum, 30fps (industry standard for Switch). IllFonic is constantly tuning the game to push its limits.  

More About the Game:

In Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, Ray Stantz and Winston Zeddemore open the Firehouse to you and the next generation of Ghostbusters. This asymmetrical game of hide and seek is a 4v1 setup where players will either play as part of a team of new Ghostbusters or a Ghost. This title not only allows players to enjoy the game solo or with up to four friends but also features an online and offline single-player mode, in the form of bot assisted play. Most importantly, the more you play, the more the story will unfold (with cutscenes). Those already playing will be excited to hear that this story will be expanded in the Ecto Edition coming later this year. Whether haunting or hunting, the game is easy to learn and fun to master!  

Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed has all the iconic gear and gadgets, from Proton Packs to P.K.E. Meters and Ghost Traps that fans would expect and new gamers to the universe will enjoy when playing as a Ghostbuster. In addition, many will recognize the Firehouse and Ray’s Occult Books that act as the game’s hub. This is where players will choose missions, customize their characters, practice firing their particle throwers, and explore all there is to learn. And yes, you will hear the original film actors reprising their roles as Ray Stantz and Winston Zeddemore, along with some new friends!

• As the Ghost – Ghosts have multiple abilities in their arsenal, like possessing objects, of course, sliming, and more, that make haunting all the various locations a blast to play. Choose from up to five Ghosts with unique skills, ultimate abilities, and commendable minions fueled by ectoplasm. Fly around public locations and possess an inordinate amount of inanimate objects to evade pursuing Ghostbusters. Frighten citizens until they flee in fear, prank unsuspecting Ghostbusters, and hide your rifts to spawn safely in case you get trapped.

• As a Ghostbuster – Be one of the four proton pack-wielding Ghostbusters and attempt to catch a Ghost haunting unique locations with your trusty ghost trap and tools. Use the P.K.E. Meter to sniff out rifts that act as the Ghost’s spawn points and destroy them with your Proton Pack’s particle thrower before the Ghost completes their haunt. As players progress, they will unlock cosmetics and upgrades for both Ghostbusters and Ghosts to evolve their gameplay experiences. The look and feel will deliver to fans an immersive experience in the universe, allowing them to play out their Ghostbusting fantasies.

• Locations – Explore multiple unique locations, including a museum, winter lodge, docked ship, multi-leveled prison, an active brewery, and more. Complete challenges, customize your Ghostbuster and Ghosts and locate hidden spores, mold, and fungus to gain access to more unlockables.

• Game Tip – As you play more, a story arc unveils itself. Follow the requests of Ray Stantz and Winston Zeddemore to uncover cutscenes that build an exciting tale! Yes, it’s multiplayer with more…

Explore the future Prime Minister’s past on PlayStation, Xbox, PC

LONDON – Oct. 19, 2023 – Not For Broadcast, the chaotic propaganda simulator from developer NotGames and publisher tinyBuild, plans for a special airing of its brand new “Bits of Your Life” DLC on PlayStation 4|5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam on Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2023.

Bits of Your Life is the nation’s favourite talk show, where viewers get to learn more about the guests through interviews with their friends, family and co-workers. It’s a tried and tested format… but isn’t it all getting a little stale? It’s time to throw the script out the window, bring out the guests in whatever order feels “right” to you and prepare for unhinged revelations, explosive outbursts and at least a full minute of uncontrollable on-air crying.

The chaos isn’t just about ratings though – It’s a chance for the nation to finally learn more about Peter Clement, the future Prime Minister they have all come to love. Run heart-to-heart interviews with Clement’s close friends and family to understand more about his past as an adored former TV celebrity. Explore his upcoming political future and “unique” views on the state of the country while keeping the audience engaged and begging for more. 

Meanwhile you’ll need to tend to the usual important work. Mute any unnecessary expletives, keep guests from getting too rowdy in the green room, and swiftly weave in the VT to keep the ratings high and the executives happy.

Explore multiple endings, secrets, and optimal routes to create the greatest show – or train wreck – possible. Check out the DLC “Bits of Your Life” on its own or as part of the Not For Broadcast season pass, which includes the previously released “Live & Spooky” DLC.

Not For Broadcast’s “Bits of Your Life” DLC will be available on PlayStation 4|5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam on Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2023 for $8.99 USD. The DLC will also be available discounted as part of the Not For Broadcast Season Pass for $24.99 USD.

About NotGames 

NotGames is a British game studio that opened its doors in 2013 to attempt to save the charity that brought us all together. Coming from a bizarre background of film, TV, theatre, and comedy, NotGames aren’t your usual game developers. If you’re asking, we’d like to call ourselves ‘multi-talented all-rounders’, while our former employers would probably say we’re ‘unfocussed and easily distracted’.

Exhausted after the runaway success of the cult-classic NotTheNameWeWanted and the subsequent stillbirth of NotCoD (we don’t like to talk about it), we took some time out to contemplate our navels in a dark room. 

In 2017, we decided to get the band back together, with NotGames 2.0 combining satire, social commentary and original gameplay into the dystopian wonderland of Not For Broadcast.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled broadcast to bring you chills and thrills

CYPRUS – Oct. 19, 2023 – Crank up the volume and kill the lights! Today, at The Indie Horror Showcase, CRITICAL REFLEX turned the spotlight on not one, but four upcoming titles, ranging from the truly terrifying to the curiously gripping.

The publisher’s 3-pronged horror segment began with the surprise release of TELEFORUM, a found footage style horror game from developers Monumental Collab, which is available to play free now on Steam. The news continued with a thematic reveal of the deceptively peaceful Regular Home Renovation Simulator, an all new and expanded horror game from developer Substandard Shrimp. The horror trio closed with a mysterious TV news-style teaser for a new project by Monumental Collab entitled Drowned Lake, with a full announcement to come later this year.

In addition to the horror catalog, the showcase also introduced the hypnotic, hand-painted Flawless Abbey, an immersive grotesque fairytale full of puzzles and intrigue, unfolding before you with every step. More information about all four of these new reveals can be found below.

About TELEFORUM

TELEFORUMis a found footage style horror game exploring the unknown side of media. You’re visiting a widow’s apartment to conduct an interview about her husband’s shocking, public death. But that’s not the main reason why you’re here. It’s all about the tape, isn’t it?

Scour every shadowy corner for valuable artifacts and perform cabalistic rituals to delay the inevitable. The Old Gods are watching. 

Face gore, death, madness, and more in unforgiving roguelike scenarios replete with unimaginably horrific encounters, ruinous curses, and dark, twisted locations. Choose from 14 playable and unlockable characters and strategize to survive, weighing the stats and perspectives of each and sleuthing to their strengths. With each chilling playthrough, our cast may find more entities from beyond will discover them.

Cling to survival in turn-based combat inspired by genre classics. Wield improvised weapons or attack with fists and kicks to live to see the next investigation.
