505 Games Reveal Ghostrunner 2 Release Date
The release date for Ghostrunner 2 was revealed on the 505 Games X account. The FPP-slasher will officially launch on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Epic Games Store, Steam, and GoG on Oct. 26, 2023. Unfortunately, though, Ghostrunner 2 will not be available on consoles from the previous generation.
Players are able to pre-order the game, which is available in three separate editions, from today. The base edition of the game is the most accessible version, but players can nab a couple of additional weapon skins through physical and digital pre-orders. The Brutal Edition of the game is by far the priciest but offers 48 hours of early access and Ghostrunner 2’s season pass which will contain a new game mode, for some that might be enticing enough to pay the price tag for the Brutal Edition.
Here’s everything that’s included in each edition of Ghostrunner 2:
- Base Edition (£34.99, Digital and Physical) – Digital and physical preorders get the Traditional Katana Pack including two sword skins and two hand skins
- Deluxe Edition (£44.99, Digital) – Includes everything in the base edition, along with four additional hand skins, four extra sword skins, and a personalized hand hologram displaying their current username
- Brutal Edition (£64.99, Digital) – Includes everything in the Deluxe Edition, along with 48 hours of early access starting Tuesday, Oct. 24. Brutal Edition also comes with the Season Pass (worth £14.99, featuring a new Game Mode and four Asset Packs), Animated Skin (Sword/Hand), and Motorcycle Skin.
Ghostrunner 2 is set a year after the events of the original game and will feature refinements to the riveting mechanics that made the first game such an intense, challenging and rewarding experience.
