- Ghostrunner is definitely the dream of every speedrunner around. With an awesome cyberpunk setting, extremely fast-paced gameplay, and instant deaths, this game definitely delivers on its promises. The various enemies will give you a hard time and the abilities you unlock fit the game like a glove.
Nickskuh · Oct 23, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - At its best, Ghostrunner provides truly thrilling action that feels alive. Rough level design and a few too many mechanics that don’t always fit together get in the way a little too often, though. There are definitely players looking for just what Ghostrunner offers, but they won’t find a smooth ride.
Andrew Thornton · Oct 07, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Ghostrunner on PS5 is probably the best way to experience developer One More Level's rage-inducingly difficult but absolutely addictive and enjoyable cyberpunk assassin game. Thanks to a solid framerate, polished visuals, and some of the most blisteringly fast action I've ever played in a video game, it delivers heaps of fun despite being formidably challenging.
Sam Aberdeen · Oct 05, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - While the fast loading times and updated graphics show off the beauty of Dharma City's neon-grunge aesthetic and keep players in the action, it's ultimately the same experience. Screen Rant's first Ghostrunner review perfectly sums up the PS5 version's experience, in that it's "Sometimes Fast, Sometimes Slow." Ghostrunner is a great game that provides a proper adrenaline rush when everything works as intended, but those hoping for any significant changes in this next-gen version will be disappointed.
Jacob Zeranko · Oct 04, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Ghostrunner is an amazing game and an extremely exhilarating experience from start to finish, and I managed to ooze adrenaline out of my body for the entirety of its runtime.
Ankit Gaba · Sep 20, 2021 Reviewed on PC, PS4Read full review - Ghostrunner was a pleasant surprise. It's a short and fun action platformer that keeps you busy with challenging but fair stages, while smartly mixing things up throughout the experience. It's not quite as great in telling its story as it is with its movement and combat, and it can be frustrating at times, but when everything works well together, it's a satisfying and fun skill-based action game.
Andreas Salmen · Jan 14, 2021 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Ghostrunner is a game of exciting highs and extremely low lows. When its controls click, it offers a thrilling parkour platforming experience. But these moments aren’t worth contending with its frustrating combat and aggravating bugs. If you’re an enthusiast for first-person platformers and can overlook a glaring lack of polish, Ghostrunner may have some limited value. For all else, there are other genre titles more deserving of your time.
David Silbert · Dec 09, 2020 Reviewed on PS4 - Ghostrunner managed to deliver on all it had promised. A great look, its cyberpunk aesthetic, and action sequences that feel as if they belong in a movie all blend together perfectly. After you get the hang of the controls, this game will be hard to put away again, granted you can deal with the frustration that comes with dying a lot.
Jessica · Dec 02, 2020 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - So, should you buy Ghostrunner? Maybe. This is a punishingly difficult game by most metrics, but those of you who like a worthy challenge will find plenty to love here. Blink-and-you-miss-it gameplay and some light replayability elements make for a title that at least proves itself to be worth the price of admission.
Mitch Vogel · Nov 28, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Overall, Ghostrunner is one of the sleeper hits for this fairly empty winter season on the Switch. Where the foundation of titles like these was laid down by games such as Mirror’s Edge, Ghostrunner improves the combat systems and uses many tricks to keep you on your toes. Complemented by both the cyberpunk aesthetic and gameplay, this title will keep you coming back to perfect your ninja-skills.
