Ghosts 'N Goblins Resurrection made waves earlier this year when it brought back a quick dose of nostalgia for Nintendo fans. Now, following its success on the Nintendo Switch, Ghosts 'N Goblins promised ports to PS4, Xbox One, and PC, have an official release date on June 1.
Capcom has managed to move remarkably quickly on these forthcoming ports. Having officially confirmed PS4 and Xbox One ports only two weeks ago, Capcom has already delivered fans with an actual release date. As well, pre-orders are available for each version with added goodies. For PS4 and Xbox One players, a pre-order will give them one-day early access. PS4 players will gain access to two exclusive themes, and Steam pre-orders will get a mini-soundtrack and a profile wallpaper.
Ghosts 'N Goblins Resurrection brings the same controller-smashing difficulty that made the original games famous, and now also features an adjustable difficulty for those looking for even more of a challenge. Unfortunately for those players looking to play online with friends, the title only supports a local co-op that allows the second player to jump in at any time.
Despite Ghosts 'N Goblins Resurrection being the first game from the series in over a decade, fans were put off by the game's odd, illustrated-looking graphics rather than the tried-and-true pixel graphics of its predecessors. Still, defenders of the game noted how true the gameplay was to the original Capcom classic. Now, with a little over a month away before the game hits the PS4, Xbox One, and PC, more fans will be able to experience this platforming classic.
Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection is out now for Nintendo Switch, with PC, PS4, and Xbox One versions coming on June 1.
