Publisher Focus Entertainment and developer Don’t Nod revealed that the release date of the upcoming narrative-driven action RPG Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden has been postponed. Previously the game was expected to arrive on November 7th. The new release date pushes the launch back to February 13, 2024. The game will be available on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Oskar Guilbert, CEO of DON’T NOD, and John Bert, Managing Director of FOCUS ENTERTAINMENT, jointly declare: “We have decided to postpone the release of this new franchise by three months, as the market is experiencing an intense release cycle for AAA titles on PC and consoles at the end of the year. We are convinced that a commercial release of Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden during a less saturated period will give it the attention it deserves.”
The events of the game take place in 1695, sprinkled heavily with supernatural juice. You play as a couple of Banishers, Antea Duarte and Red Mac Raith, experienced spirit hunters, sent to New Eden to lift a mysterious curse and solve haunting cases. 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.
With Antea now being a ghost herself, will you honor your Banisher oath or sacrifice the living in a desperate bid to bring your beloved back?
