Ghostrunner 2 Gets A Surprising Discount For PC On Release Day

Ghostrunner 2 — the sequel to the well-received Ghostrunner from 2020 — has just made landfall, after developer One More Level dropped an announcement for the game during this year’s PlayStation Showcase. Surprisingly enough, you can get the latest release for a bargain price at the moment, one that lets you avail of a 20% discount off the game’s MSRP, reducing the latter’s Standard Edition’s price to $32.

The platforms in question that have been feeling generous as of late are Green Man Gaming and Fanatical. Purchasing the action-centric title from either online marketplace will grant you a Steam key, which you can use to head over to Valve’s game launcher to redeem it, followed by downloading Ghostrunner 2 right away. Fairly enticing for those who were looking forward to this purchase. 

And the best part? It’s not just the Standard Edition of Ghostrunner 2 that is available for a promotional price at the moment—the Deluxe and Brutal Editions are equally involved. For those not in the know, the platformer has three different variants up for purchase, with the latter two bringing extra DLC for players to sink their swords into. Here’s everything that you’ll get upon your purchase of the Deluxe bundle.

• Ghostrunner 2 Base Game
• Red Eye Dragon Traditional Sword and Hand Skin
• Golden Traditional Sword and Hand Skin
• Ahriman’s Katana Sword and Hand Skin
• Modern Energy Sword and Hand Skin
• Molten Blade Sword and Hand Skin
• Gothic Blue Sword and Hand Skin
• Hand Hologram with Username

Although normally setting users back about $49.99, the sale event on both GMG and Fanatical will let you pick the game up for $39.99, a cool $10 off. On the same side, there’s Ghostrunner 2’s Brutal Edition, available for $55.99 at the moment instead of the regular $69.99 pricing. This one’s loaded to the brim with content, including everything that the Deluxe bundle has, along with the following digital goodies. 

• Aqua Animated Sword and Hand Skin
• Design 24A Motorcycle Skin
• Ghostrunner 2 Season Pass ($19.99 Value)

On a side note, Ghostrunner 2 is off to a solid start, having its launch trailer pop up in recent times and showing Jack back in full flight. Players have been hooked to the title ever since the 2023 State of Play event dropped a playable demo for the action platformer, encompassing rip-roaring throat-slashing gameplay along with a sequence that saw Jack riding a motorbike—a first for the franchise. 

Ghostrunner 2 was released on October 26, 2023, for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, with no port for last-gen platforms. The first game has sold over 2.5 million copies to date, and now, a significant bump to that figure is expected with the launch of the sequel. At the moment, the title’s off to a fantastic start, gauging its reviews from all across the spectrum as it sits at 80 Metascore on Metacritic.
