Don’t Nod has released nothing in a long time. Twin Mirror was the studio's final project, which served as a vessel for the mystery-loving community. The Parisian business kept its mouth shut for the next two years, until The Game Awards 2022, when a new project was announced: Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden.
What is Banishers: Ghosts of a New Eden?
Don't Nod's Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is an upcoming action role-playing game. The company is well recognized for its collection of complex and immersive story-driven titles such as Life Is Strange, Remember Me, and Twin Mirror.
Its most recent project, to be released by Focus Entertainment, will include two playable characters involved in the dubious ghost-hunting activity in the fictitious colony of New Eden.
What happens in Banishers: Ghosts of a New Eden?
Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is set in the mythical realm of New Eden. Antea and Red, two well-liked paranormal hunters, are dispatched to eliminate the land's phantom dangers. When an inquiry goes astray, and Antea is permanently injured, the two must journey far and wide to find a solution for the coming spiritual tragedy.
"1695, New Eden. Anthea Duarte and Red Mac Raith are lovers and Banishers, ghost-hunters who have committed to defending the living from the menace of lingering spirits and specters," according to the official description. "Anthea is severely injured during a terrible last expedition, becoming one of the spirits she despises. The pair anxiously hunts for a means to free Anthea from her new situation in the eerie wilds of North America."
Banishers: Ghosts of a New Eden Gameplay
Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden will be more of a role-playing action game than Don't Nod's previous titles. Consider it more like Remember Me, but with more swords, ghosts, and folklore. This is a general outline of what we may expect from its gameplay.
Like past Don't Nod titles, it will include customizable story arcs. Although it is not on the same wavelength as Life Is Strange, its in-game activities will have a variety of outcomes. This will be strictly up your alley if you enjoy sharing your stories.
What platforms will get Banishers: Ghosts of a New Eden?
Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is expected to release in late 2023 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. There are no plans to port the game to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, or Nintendo Switch. Furthermore, nothing suggests it will be on PlayStation Plus or Xbox Game Pass, either.
