IllFonic, the developer behind the 4v1 haunt-or-hunt video game, “Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed,” has laid out its plans for year two of the game and its free DLC roadmap. In the year ahead, players can expect a heightened focus on interactive play, gear and gadgets, and ghastly ghosts.
“We have been so focused on building an immersive world, one fans would recognize and appreciate,” said Jared Gerritzen, Chief Creative Officer at IllFonic. “Our goal now is to double down on the feel. As a long-time Ghostbusters fan, I want to feel immersed. Our drive for DLC year two: heighten the fun, heighten the experience.”
IllFonic has planned four major DLC releases throughout 2024. The first release, in March, coincides with Columbia Pictures’ release of “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire” this past Friday. Fans will get to try their hand at taking down Garraka, master of the Death Chill and the newest villain to join “Ghostbusters” lore. Or maybe fans want to play the heavy themselves and plunge the world into a new ice age. Either way, this DLC will let fans live out experiences inspired by the new movie’s adventure. The free DLC will also include more Ghostbuster gear, including new proton packs, suits, and more.
Future DLCs will include a 40th Anniversary announcement, a return of a fan favorite, a bounty challenge for the ages, and more. Each DLC focuses on gameplay, a ghastly ghost, and team gear/gadgets to make busting feel oh-so-good. Check out this year’s complete roadmap below:
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 be part of a team of new Ghostbusters or a Ghost. The game allows players to enjoy the game solo or with up to four friends. It also features an online and offline single-player mode available in the form of bot-assisted play. Most importantly, the more you play, the more the story will unfold (with cutscenes). Whether haunting or hunting, the game is easy to learn and fun to master, and best of all, you have the chance to unite forces or rally against each other seamlessly across platforms, whether playing on PC/Epic Games Store/STEAM, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, or Nintendo Switch.
