Sony Pictures Virtual Reality (SPVR) and nDreams revealed more post-launch content that's coming to Ghostbusters: Rise Of The Ghost Lord. The team released a new video, which we have for you down below, led by Game Director Nathan Baseley as he goes over some of the new content on the way. The big factor to fans is that they are addressing some of the community feedback they got with content to come out over the next several months, as they will have updates leading all the way up to the release of the new film Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. This included releasing a new content roadmap, which you can see below, that will bring about more narrative-infused content and atmospheric changes.
The content will start with a new game update dropping on Friday, December 15, which will come with the brand-new Infestation mode, totally free. Those of you who owned the Full Containment Edition of the game will be able to snag four new characters and two new equipment skins as part of the update. However, those looking to get it can also buy them in the shop. In January, the original flight suits from the first film will be added, as well as fighting Slimer in a new game mode. We have more details of all of this from the devs below.
New Game Mode & Skins This Friday
