Ghostrunner 2 revealed an October release date in its latest trailer, as well as the new motorcycle which will drastically change how combat and traversal plays out in the game.

The sequel uses a dialogue system now, rewarding fans who are curious about the apocalyptic world that they are fighting for. Moreover, there are new skills that encourage players to problem-solve creatively and challenge themselves in reactive environments.

Nevertheless, enemies in Ghostrunner 2 will respond in different ways to the skills that Jack wields against them, raising the stakes with every combat encounter. The team has revamped the progression system too, however, details on that feature are light.

“Featuring intense fast-paced-push-forward combat, and deeply challenging gameplay, the sequel promises to up the ante from the original in every conceivable way, including, for the first time, motorcycle combat,” said publisher 505 Games.

“Bursting with new powers, upgradeable abilities, traversal mechanics, an expanded narrative, deeper world building, and devilish new enemies, Ghostrunner 2 is the ultimate power fantasy… every kill will be earned. Adapt to, and master the gameplay as only a cyber ninja would,” it concluded.
