Okay, I'll do the short version of my review first and the long one afterwards.

In short: Ghostrunner is a fast-paced parkour/mobility styled game where you gotta approach your situation the correct way to succeed. Ghostrunner is a very punishing game given you can only get hit once before you're reset to your last checkpoint to start again, this makes the game very hard but so rewarding when you finally get to kill that last enemy that's been bugging you for the last 10 minutes. 9.5/10



Long version:

The gameplay:
The gameplay loop feels amazing, it's fluid, fast and very responsive and despite scenarios being very alike at times the different ways you can go about completing said scenarios are amazing. The only times the gameplay loop falls short is when you've gotta complete puzzles that aren't well explained or when you've gotta wait for an opportunity to move forward in your area (Like waiting for platforms to come back if you missed them.)

The story:
The story is simple, yet very beautifully written and composed. I found myself getting lost in the characters dialog, trying to piece together what made the world of ghostrunner the way it is. I never felt the story was stale or boring and it always kept me interested. Side note: The story isn't shoved in your face given that the characters don't talk often, and you can just turn down the volume of the dialog to get rid of it all together

The looks/graphics:
The game looks stunning (I played in 1080p, 144hz and it still looked amazing). The dark and dystopian lighting alongside the absolutely terrifying labs, dimly lit city with neon lights and holograms that you run through really sets you in a setting where you feel like the world has gone to absolute ♥♥♥♥ and that YOU have to do something about it.

The soundtrack:
Gorgeous sci-fi cyberpunk-ish soundtrack with slow and fast beats here and there. It really helps the immersion and made me wanna go faster (Which made me die more times than I'd like to admit). I wish I could buy the soundtrack separately just to own it really

Conclusion:
This game is by all means worth the price mark (if not more) and you should get it if you're looking for a high-octane adrenaline rush. The game feels good, looks good, sounds good and tells an amazing story that still leaves a lot of questions for the player to figure out in their own head.

Final score: 9.5/10

Honestly just amazing
