It isn’t really clear who the Ghostbusters franchise is for anymore. In Jason Reitman’s 2021 sequel/reboot, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, it seemed like the series had a clear trajectory, and that he was aiming at finally making it the kids’ franchise that Halloween costume companies always dreamed it could be. But the latest entry, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, clings so tightly to the franchise’s past that it’s hard to see how it could appeal to anyone at all.
Ghost of Tsushima PC Version Might Be Confirmed Soon, Says Insider
02.03.2024 - 18:19 / wccftech.com / Alessio Palumbo
The sprawling open world action/adventure game Ghost of Tsushima is basically the only big PlayStation franchise other than Gran Turismo that hasn't made it to PC yet. Uncharted, The Last of Us, God of War, Marvel's Spider-Man, and Horizon have all been ported to PC. What's most puzzling is that even more recent games have been ported; for instance, Horizon Forbidden West, released in February 2022 for PlayStation consoles, will launch later this month on PC. Ghost of Tsushima, on the other hand, launched in July 2020.
All that might change soon, at least according to insider Shpeshal Nick, who reckons we should learn more about the PC port by Tuesday, March 5. Shpeshal Nick is considered to have a fairly reliable track record, though it's always a good idea to keep the anticipation in check ahead of an official announcement.

If Sucker Punch's game is indeed coming to PC, chances are it'll be the Director's Cut released in August 2021 for PlayStation 5. That update added Iki Island, a whole new story and new characters, new armor for Jin and his horse, new mini-games, new techniques, new enemy types, and new animals to pet. It'll also be interesting to see if Sony also ports Ghost of Tsushima: Rivals, the cooperative multiplayer mode that eventually got its own standalone release.
The game was a massive success for the Seattle-based studio, turning into one of the best-selling original games made for PlayStation 4 with over 9.73 million units sold as of July 2022 (the second launch anniversary). It also earned well-deserved high scores from critics. In my review, I rated Ghost of Tsushima 9 out of 10:
Our time with Ghost of Tsushima demonstrated a much better, not to mention much more engrossing, open world game when compared to Infamous: Second Son. In fact, when all is said and done, this could be regarded as Sucker Punch's finest work yet, both in terms of critical reception and sales, in a similar way to what Horizon Zero Dawn did for Guerrilla Games and Marvel's Spider-Man for Insomniac.
The IP was so successful that it is being made in a movie directed by John Wick's Chad Stahelski, who is keen on making it with a Japanese cast and in the Japanese language only.

Fallout's long-awaited TV show is a little under a month away, and we got our best look at the project so far with a trailer released earlier this month. For the most part, it looks like an incredibly faithful adaptation of a typical Fallout title, complete with a Mister Handy, Ghouls, iconic weaponry, the Brotherhood of Steel, NCR, and pretty much everything else that will make Fallout nerds point at their screens and clap.

Next Ghost Recon Will be a First-Person Shooter, Coming 2025-2026 – Rumour
Ghost Recon Breakpoint was a bit of a dumpster fire, and Ghost Recon Frontline got cancelled in response to widespread backlash against its core premise, so the last few years have definitely been rough for the Ghost Recon franchise. Even so, though a new game hasn’t yet been officially announced, it seems safe to assume, given the magnitude of the franchise, that Ubisoft does have plans for a new game in the series. Now, a report published by Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson has shed light on alleged details about that next instalment.
