Activision Announces New "Ghostbusters" Video Game

Activision has announced plans to release a brand-new Ghostbusters video game this summer to tie-in to the upcoming Ghostbusters reboot, reports USA Today!


Tied to the new 'Ghostbusters' movie, a video game is set for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC via Steam on July 12. Four players, girls and guys, must don their proton packs to exterminate the paranormal.

That the four-player RPG will be released on Tuesday 12th July 2016, just before the Friday 15th July 2016 release of the new Ghostbusters movie. It's slated for Playstation 4, XBox One and Windows PC via Steam.


However, it won't be starring the old-school 80s crew or the rebooted all-female cast. Instead, the game, which takes place after the events of the new movie, features a new cast of male and female Ghostbuster rookies who are called upon to keep New York City safe. Meanwhile, the characters from the movie - who are now famous - are away taking down high-profile spooks, specters, and ghosts across the country.


Activision will also release a mobile tie-in game titled Ghostbusters: Slime City. The mobile app will be available for select iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices via the App Store, select Android devices via Google Play and select Kindle devices through the Amazon Appstore.
