Life is Strange creators announce Action-RPG Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

DONTNOD Entertainment have long been known for their work on the Life is Strange series, however their repertoire extends far beyond that game’s genre, with the studio’s debut title being the oft-forgotten combat-focused ‘Remember Me’. Now, the team have announced their most ambitious game yet: Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden – a story driven Action-RPG.

Announced at the 2022 Game Awards, Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is described as follows:

“New Eden, 1695. Antea Duarte and Red mac Raith are lovers and Banishers, ghost-hunters who vowed to protect the living from the threat of lingering ghosts and specters. Following a disastrous last mission, Antea is fatally wounded, becoming one of the spirits she loathes. In the haunted wilds of North America, the couple desperately searches for a way to liberate Antea from her new plight.”

Though very little gameplay was shown, it is quite clear that Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden Is DONTNOD’s most ambitious game yet, combining all of the strengths and learnings from the studio’s previous projects to make a game that is not only filled with impactful and challenging moral decisions, but also features in-depth combat mechanics using magic, weapons and spiritual powers – evolving your character both personally and mechanically.

Hopefully we get to see more from Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden ahead of its release some time in late 2023.
