Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed Reveal Trailer (4v1 MP game from Friday the 13th/Predator Hunting Grounds dev)

"from Friday the 13th/Predator Hunting Grounds dev"

HOW does that dev team still get work? they made 2 absolutely god awful games, somehow they even got Sony to sign an exclusive deal with them for the second shitshow they made... and now they went straight to the next game, which the same concept they already fucked up twice?

wtf is going on here?
 
Looks pretty decent. At first thought it was going to be a mobile game but then could tell it's for pc/ consoles. Which is nice.

Was Predator that bad? I really enjoyed Friday, even with the jank. Was a super fun time for me and made a lot of good friends playing. Sadly they got screwed over and could not continue releasing the planned DLC so I can't say I blame them for dropping support on it.

This looks like fun as well. But I have a soft spot for Ghostbusters.

Predator is awesome with the Arnold DLC.
 
Yea, no. lol.

Ghostbusters brand is huge now after the movie has kind of rebooted it.

This will sell well. And since its more on the stylized cartoony side looks wise , I see this being a cool game to play with your kids.
Ghostbusters is huge now?

You really think this is the next big multiplayer game coming out because you liked Afterlife?

Alright. Enjoy playing it with your 3 children.
 
I'm absolutely all in on this. I can't believe the cast is involved. Makes it harder to say no.

I ADORED F13, just so sad about the lawsuit stuff. It could've been so much more than what it was. Predator was good as well IMO, it was just really lacking in the content area. F13 had a lot more content and more varied gameplay I feel. Ditto dude, as an 80's kid this just makes me wanna throw my wallet at the screen.
 
They're really missing a key ingredient of Ghostbusters, in the original movie most of them are academics in their early 30's doing a "shlubby exterminator" thing. Here the player characters are young, super diverse and wet behind their ears, supposedly to be relatable to the Fortnite audience. Even the art direction stinks of Fortnite.

It deserves a DOA.

The power of friendship makes you overlook a bunch of shit and just have a good time lol
 
I wish the art style was less cartoony. I liked the more realistic look of the 360/PS3 versions 2009 game. I hope we can customize our character a lot and maybe play as the characters from Extreme Ghostbusters cartoon.

Have any of these 4v1 games actually been successful? All of them except dead by daylight seem to last like a week.
Friday the 13th was pretty huge on Twitch, and I know Natural Selection 2 is still pretty popular!

I also know those games are very popular in VR, like Werewolves, Amongus and whatnot. Asymmetrical Multiplayer is all the rage right now!
 
Not sure how this will work out with randoms but looks like a blast with actual friends. Also nice there's some more "solo" stuff in it.
 
Illfonic has a lot of talent. They just need to solve the jank issue in their games. Curious to see what they do with this considering their asymmetric multiplayer expertise.
 
Posters think the Friday the 13th game is shit? I enjoyed the game but it was hampered by copyright feud over the Jason/Friday the 13th IP that ended its continued support. It wasn't shit
 
Oh.. I'm liking the art direction of the game! Look's pretty good. The balance is going to be key, but I'll be keeping an eye out for this one.
 
So what platforms? Is it PS exclusive just like that Predator game?
No it's published by Columbia Pictures(Sony) I believe? Even if It isn't, it's for all platforms. Basically it doesn't have much to do with Playstation, most of the Sony movie licensed games are for all platforms. Like Jumanji.

Which means the next Sly Cooper game might be for all platforms too. Since I think Columbia Pictures is publishing that game.
 
As janky as it was, my friends and I had a lot of fun playing Friday, especially when it first came out and you could kill the asshole counselors who cheated. I gave Predator a try and was not impressed.

To each their own, but both games were far from god awful IMO, but most certainly janky. F13 IMO, was definitely better than Predator, but that was still enjoyable in its own right.

They dropped their own IP not long ago, but it looked so uninspired to me that I never really gave it a shot. I'm not sure how they do it, but I guess they know the right people? Though I wouldn't be surprised if both games sold pretty well because of the IPs alone.
 
I wish these guys would stop making the same game over and over, they are just wasting some of the best movie franchises on mediocre games. Don't get me wrong, F13 was fun for a dozen hours or so...but it's about as deep as a puddle.
