Description

 

In New Eden, 1695, communities of settlers are plagued by a dreadful curse. As Banishers, step into their lives, investigate the source of evil, unravel chilling mysteries, explore diverse landscapes, and interact with unforgettable characters whose fate lies in your hands.

 

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is an all-new title crafted by renowned studio DON'T NOD, known for their acclaimed titles such as Life is Strange and Vampyr. Immerse yourself in an intimate narrative Action-RPG, taking you on an exhilarating journey between life, death, love and sacrifices.

Play as a couple of Banishers, Red and Antea, experienced spirit hunters entrusted with the daunting task of dispelling a malevolent curse through powerful rituals. Protect the living from the threat of lingering ghosts and specters, and become a beacon of hope in a world consumed by darkness.

 

Experience a heart-wrenching love story between Antea Duarte and Red mac Raith. When Antea is killed and turned into a spirit, you find yourself facing a choice. Will you uphold your oath and ascend her soul, or will you sacrifice the living in the hope of bringing her back? Your decisions will shape the fate of New Eden’s inhabitants - may they be living or dead, and determine the end of your journey.

 

  • BLAME the living and sacrifice their lives, holding them responsible for their actions

  • BANISH souls of the departed, condemning them to eternal suffering

  • ASCEND souls, liberating them from eternal sorrow and granting them serenity

 

Banishers are specialized in combat against undead creatures, such as specters or ghosts. Combine Red's physical arsenal with Antea's supernatural powers in a dynamic combat system. Find your own style by mixing weapon attacks and spiritual abilities. Powerful synergies will lead you to defeat New Eden’s most dangerous enemies and bosses.

Unleash the full power of the Banishers by unlocking new gear and supernatural abilities. By exploring New Eden, you will find ancient artifacts, trinkets and valuable resources to enhance your equipment in preparation of future fights. In addition to your arsenal, progress in Antea’s skill trees to upgrade her devastating spectral powers and unseal new combos.

 

Investigate haunting cases in a mystical world full of dark secrets. Discover New Eden, a North America settlement marked by terrible stories and secrets of its tormented inhabitants. Understanding each resident’s motivations will be essential to guide your decisions throughout the game.

A true Diamond!

Life to the living, death to the dead. Banishers is surely among the best RPG games, and now that it is available on GOG, I couldn't be happier. I call it an RPG, although the focus is more on the adventure side, while the RPG elements are less pronounced; still, it is an exceptional game. Banishers is a story-driven open-world RPG with a strong narrative and emotional depth. What is truly impressive is that the game is quite long—it offers a 40-50-hour main story, plenty of side quests and missions, and a lot of exploration. The RPG system isn't dominant, but it is present, mostly revolving around upgrading gear and skills through resource collection. All in all, it's a top-tier game, and I must admit, one of the best recent RPGs I've played. On the technical side, the game runs great. It is built on UE5 and can be demanding, but the good thing is that it is well-optimized. I wouldn't want to talk too much about how it works on GOG Galaxy since I just got it and haven't played it enough, but I can say that for the time I have spent in it, the game runs perfectly without any technical issues. The FPS is stable, the overlay works perfectly; as far as I'm concerned, it integrates excellently with Galaxy. In my personal opinion, this is an underrated game. If you can play it, get it—you won't regret it; the game is truly good.

Literally unplayable

The publisher won't let me play it unless I sign a contract that they won't show me. The time for this is prior to purchase, not afterward.

Played on XBOX - Good Game

Good game, not great. There are times when it can get a little repetitive, but overall, I liked the story. Some of the side quests were fetch quests, so they were more time killers than anything else. I played all the way through, but was a little disappointed with the final fight. I'm giving it a very solid 4 stars. I will say that if you enjoy games with a steady pace and a good story, this one is for you. If you're expecting either DMC or Souls like fighting mechanics, then it's probably best that you skip this one.

Way worse that Vampyr, sadly

Lots of useless filler content. Labirintine map, which would work, if it was small enough, but it isn't. The girl boss got on my nerves from the start and it didn't get any better later. Combat is ok, but get's old quick. Overall playable, but completly uninspiring.

Good and Bad

A really interesting and unique story line. But, it's not really a game, it's a really well done visual novel. Too much time is spent running all over the map, doing dialog, and trying to solve 3D puzzles. I enjoyed the first half of the game, but after that got bored. By that point it's just more of the same.
