Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden Review

- Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden reviewed by Travis Northup on Xbox Series X, also available on PlayStation 5 and PC.
Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is a fun action game with a solid concept and a stellar paranormal investigation system. Its story about struggling to let go of loved ones in death is worth hearing, even when its pacing occasionally gets sluggish and indulgent. The combat system also tries some interesting new things that largely work out, only dragged down by poor enemy variety and wonky controls. Still, swapping between the corporeal and ghostly planes instantaneously is every bit as cool when solving mysteries as it is during fights, and the writing and characters help carry Banishers across its rougher patches. That made saying goodbye to them fittingly difficult, decaying flesh and all.

dude's name: red
his clothes: blue
sold
She's black and not named Shaniqua
In Australia redheads are (or were) often nicknamed blue or bluey for the irony.
That's not a common name outside the US@@HamadaKindnesss
Hope this sells well we need more variety.
looks like a 360 game

@@Argonian0727you mean because its coming to every platform?
@@Argonian0727you mean back then when most games where bangers? Wow what an insult. Enjoy starfailed.
Variety? LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Vampyr was one of my favourite games and the combat was just alright as well. What was amazing was the world building and characters. I’ll be buying this asap.
Still hoping for Vampyr 2!
It's awesome just started playing it tonight
Is this the same studio?
@@JordanJ_CPT yeah at least partially. Vampyr was made by both dontnod (who made this) and saber interactive
vampyr's combat is garbage 😂
The games era setting alone makes me want to check this game out.
Ghost Detective you say?
*Spirit Gun intensifies
We're long overdue for a proper Yu Yu Hakusho game
Didnt the series Joke that he didnt do his job as a ghost detective at all.
Right someone needs to make a Yu Yu Hakusho game already
Vampyr by them was the most atmospheric game i've played this generation. seeing how this is published and developed by the same company, i'm happy to give this a chance too :)
Sleeper Hit...like "Plague Tale"series.
plague tale was awesome . just deleted this POS game it was disappointing .
Hope we get another plague tale especially after that cliffhanger in requiem
Please don't compare this to the plague tale series, it's disrespectful 😂
Too bad they killed that franchise off too early.
That it’s always sunny clip was top notch
1:10 crevice crawling is often a dev trick to slow the player down until the next area loads
In games like this, it also gives players a chance to slow down and be forced into an intimate dialogue interaction. Hence why all these games tend to be heavy on story.
Yeah it's a tired and overdone crutch lacking any quality of design.
@radekseky4571 oh woe *worlds tiniest violin*
Get over yourself man, it's a loading screen while not breaking immersion.
Why is the video quality here so much lower than many other smaller pages on UA-cam?
That’s IGN for ya
This really looks like GreedFall 2, I watched he entire trailer and couldn’t believe it wasn’t GreedFall 2. It’s not just the theme but the graphics style, gameplay style, even the monster design and mechanics
Discovered this game this morning, checked and this review during my 1st coffee, bought with my second coffee
gonna be crunching Ghosts for lunch
How do you have 2 coffee breaks before lunch
@@steezuskryst7201easy. Empty out the first batch and put in a new batch of coffee grinds in the coffee machine. Brew

This looks awesome and should of been advertised more. I'm getting it to support these kind of games
Same
This game actually seems very interesting. Need to check it out when it comes out.
nice try
Ugh it's out...
mid
Go buy it its out. You wont.
gonna try this out. We dont get to experience this time period often
Giving me real Greedfall vibes. Keen to play it! Eventually...
Can we invert x-axis in the control setting?
Does anyone know where the photos taken in photomode are saved?
Looking forward to playing this game.
Swapping between real world and ghost world: Legacy of Kane: Soul Reaver.
Glad to see that mechanic coming back, it was pretty cool.
*Kain.
The story and subject matter lured me in as someone with an interest in ghost hunting and the paranormal. Although the game mechanics and puzzles are revisiting things I’ve seen and done in other games, I’m really enjoying it and can’t believe what a small team have created.
Will be playing tonight!
I'd get it whenever it's on sale. It doesn't look terrible
Likewise
It’s definitely on my list. (Actually has been since the reveal trailer)
Thumbs up for Always Sunny reference.
Pre ordered it yesterday for an early birthday present since my birthday is this Saturday 17th
Have fun
I'm turning 31 yay
😕
@@matthewkiggin5456 it's fine bro, not even old lol
Yay! Mine’s sunday 18th. Congrats in advance. I’ll buy myself some games too.
I'm picking this game up today!
Will definitely buy this when its on sale
For me it’s a very interesting game 😀 Hope i ´m not wrong … let see tomorow 👍
Please tell me you can turn off health bars and damage numbers? Why do reviewers almost never cover this?
Yes there are alot of settings in this game
Never comment on how controls feel with M&KB vs. Controller. It's maddening.
@@DoubleD19788 It's such an essential thing to note. PC's aren't the only "real" option anymore. A study conducted in 2023 revealed that 43% of gamers play only on PC while 41% play only on console. In terms of the global games market (the money made, not the player count,) console gaming overtook PC gaming in 2022 where console gaming made $52.9 billion, and PC gaming only made $40.4 billion. PC isn't the only thing. Console gaming is equally legitimate and arguably bigger than PC gaming, depending on what metrics you use.
Get with the times, reviewrs.
Because they are reviewing the game not talking about settings 😮
@@metallicafan416 settings aren’t part of the game? Really?
Crevice crawling is a loading screen trick 😉
What's new with that another 7! I don't take any stock with their reviews!
why is 7 a bad number?
Anyone know why ign force feeds their reviewers helium before they record these? Love Travis. Just wondering lol
Helldivers 2 review got lost.
GOTY…for democracy.
No media outlet got review copies for that game, that's why it's taking longer for full fledged reviews to come out... and whoever released one already definitely did not have the time to properly play the game.
Maybe it got lost in the crowded sales shelves .
Its def for me ordered it already
that game smelled 7 since they released their first trailer
hows that meat taste?
lol the hover over thumbnail from score timeline shows 3 I was like are you out of your mind its an average game not a bad game
The reviewers closing statement of the game is not in line with the score he actually gives it. He makes it sound like an 8 but no surprise we get a 7.
Haha a one point difference you're mad at?
@@reekhavoc2932How is pointing something out shown as angry
Agreed. Also it doesn't seem to reflect what other outlets are saying. It's like ign always want to be their own entity and go against the grain.
@@imnotgivingyoumyname810 yes you're probably right and it's become quiet predictable at this stage.
Did you just say “dope ritual”?
When there’s something strange in your neighbourhood,
Who you gonna call?
Ghostbanishers.
Just hope they don't make horrible sequels killing the legacy like ghostbusters
Can you change your weapons, outfits???
Yes
The enemy variety had me concerned from the trailers. Especially with a 30hr playtime. It looks decent. But I’ll wait for at least a 50% sale.
Cheap bastard
Waiting for a sale on this one
Gonna give this game a try!
Seems like a game that could have been a 9 if it was BACKED by PLAYSTATION
Are you high?
Lol IGN gave Spider Man 7/10
Death Stranding 6/10
Days Gone 6/10
@@minthantswe8552 Both Spiderman and Miles morales got 9s but Spiderman 2 got an 8
@@madhavic1778 Have you ever experienced pleasure?
If this game was a 2ND PARTY PS GAME that's Voice Acting would be better and the combat would be better. For sure.
@@minthantswe8552days gone is worst PS exculusive of all time.
If they make it possible to customize the char it would be more interesting
agree, fatal flaw in the game if you can not
What do you mean by customize. You can change your outfit and decoction to look different.
its a ghost game ofcourse im gonna buy it
Wat is the genre!?
Crevice crawling = hidden load screens.
How dare a game load in this way. We want loading screens like Starfield dont we.
Really never been sure what’s so terrible about loading screens? 😂 I mean okay - video games load…shocking stuff 🙄
The worst thing in modern (AAA) games
@@hotcoldman77its game not AAA
You would think thay games would get rid of those in SSD consoles, but here we are several years into this generation and they still make crevice crawlers.
What happened to hell divers 2 review?
The 7 is a crime. Having AA game try something new and refreshing with somewhat technical stability and not broken like some AAA games. Easily deserves some praise. Your scores are so invalid.
IGN oughta remove their heads out of their collective rears and give this game the score it deserves. Hint, higher than 7.
Why is 7 a problem? How is that any different from a 6 or an 8?
@@pillarmenn1936 because cod getting a 9
@@MrBALAKUMARA There's a new CoD? Or is this from an old one?
A 7?!! "You didn't see that coming?" - Quicksilver, 'Avengers: Age of Ultron'
Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor. Crevice crawler
Looks like an interesting game. It definitely has my interest.
A "Don't not" game getting a 7? This can't be reality
Do they crawl to hide load times think so Bobby
Just bought it on steam
Looks like I'm going in the crevice
kinda want to try it out but not interested in all the ghosts stuff,guess i'll wait for a discount
Cheap bastard
7/10
Why 7??? When you left your comment, the game wasn t yet available for download. Are you rating the game based only on the videos you saw?
This game has really been flying under the radar for me, did they do any marketing?
Spectral realm, hmm - reminds me of the OG Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
A solid 7...
From the reviewer talk he only played 5 hours in the game
I've got 45 hours in and not done yet. Easy 9/10 rating
I'll wait for thaumaturge.
Classic IGN score for a game like this.
'Crevis Crawler'.
5:43 I'm calling this game Dope Rituals now. 😛
This game is great so far. Super refreshing.
Please make a Dredd game next
*Still waiting for that helldivers review .. how did this come out before helldivers?*
Does the reviewer not know that those squeezing thru cervices sequences are actually just loading screens?
They do, still, worth commenting on for a joke.
Probably will wait for this on PS plus or gamepass.
This looks like it had a lot of potential
finally something refreshing, original, and new, this game deserves a 9/10
6/10
Atleast
idk what "refreshing" means to you.
Can somebody confirm if camera shakes can be disabled
Yes
Why did you put a spoiler in the review?????????????
So this is the latest UE5 technology people are craving for? looks pretty 2015
Has a dark souls feel and dark souls games are repetitive but that's what we love about them this feels familiar.
This is one of those games that you see in gamestop and say " ...... maybe when the price drops about $40."
Looks like a waste of time, for free. Hard pass.
Seems like a bit of a harsh score after everything they said and showed
So life is strange devs with witcher like setting/gameplay. Im in
Kinda like murdered soul suspect
Doesnt really look like an unreal 5 game looks last gen. Seems fun though.
Why does this game gives me Lords of the Fallen Lock-on system vibes? Could it be that the terrible lock-on system might just be Unreal Engine 5's stock lock-on?
Im interested
Seems really cool but that stiff combat is turning me off.
Vampyr 2 please
Even IGN gave it a 7/10, which probably means it's at best a 5/10, a no from me.
GameSpot gave this game a 7
gamebolt gave this 8
Mid game
MID RANGE SCORES FOR A MID GAME OR NAH?
@@reekhavoc2932 just play whatever u like
looks more an 8
6
It’s a 7/10 y’all
Why this game just got 7?
Play it then come back to this comment to tell us 😊
I’m pretty sure the reviewer explained why it got a 7
@@ILikeHipHop93 Yup I'll play this game and with me it should 8.5
the review spent a 3rd of the review (9 minutes) whining about hidden loading screens@@ILikeHipHop93
A ghost train ride.
Another MIGHTY 7 from ign!!
An ign 7 is usually a 8.5. Usually.
It's more often than not that an IGN 7 is a 5 really.
Seems 7 like Vampyr game 🎮
IGN is the fox and friends of videogame reviews.
Thisloo,s like a dream where max and chloe are larping fromkifr is strange just weird ui choices make it look like a mobile game
The score is 7
