Despite my best efforts, I’m still not proficient at wall-running or motorbiking. But lucky for me, publishers 505 Games have announced thatGhostrunner 2is coming out on October 26th, which is shaping up to be another very busy month for very good-looking games. The originalGhostrunnerbashed the first-person parkour ofMirror’s Edgewith cyberpunky ninja swords to great success, and the sequel bolts on a rideable bike and a parry system to the winning formula.Ghostrunner 2 Pre-Order Trailer (ESRB)Watch on YouTubeAll 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.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settingsGhostrunner 2 will be available onSteam,GOG, and theEpic Games Storeon October 26th.
