Ghostrunner goes into the second round: The cyberpunk slasher with fast parkour inserts will be continued, as publisher 505 Games and developer One More Level announced. The announcement of Ghostrunner 2 follows strong sales of the predecessor, which amount to around 600,000.
The publisher goes on to explain that they recognize the potential to »develop Ghostrunner into a strong brand«. This implies that further successors could come in the future if Ghostrunner 2 is also a blockbuster.

In Ghostrunner you steer as skilfully as possible through large levels in the first person perspective and have to make use of jumps, wall runs and quick evasions. In addition, you can cut dangerous enemies with your neon sword and slow down the time – something that is urgently needed because of the crisp level of difficulty.
