    Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden Review

    If there's one thing the French developer Don't Nod excels at, it's crafting emotional and gripping narratives where human relationships take center stage. The studio proved its mettle through Remember Me, Life is Strange, The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, Vampyr, Harmony, Jusant, and more. While budgetary constraints always held their games back a notch, their games nevertheless provide reflective, thought-provoking experiences. Banishers: Ghosts of Eden is no exception. Banishers weave an emotional tale of loss, grief, love, and acceptance packed with some powerful performances. Even after my 45-hour adventure through its accursed American frontier had come to a close, the love story of Red and Antea as well as that of the plethora of haunted characters stayed with me. Here's me, Yemeth presenting Gameffine's Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden review.

    Life to the Living
    Seemingly set in the same universe as Vampyr, Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden tells the story of Red mac Raith and Antea Duarte, lovers and professional Banishers - ghost detectives and all-around paranormal problem solvers. Set in 1695, the duo travels to the North American frontier, to a fictional New England town called New Eden, tasked with investigating a curse that has befallen the once-booming community. Things do not go as planned and the duo is defeated by an evil force way beyond their banishing capabilities. Antea is brutally murdered and Red is thrown into the ocean, only to be saved by a mysterious stranger. Antea also returns, but as a ghost, something Banishers are trained to get rid of. Torn between their duty as Banishers and vows as lovers, the tragic couple is left with a moral dilemma - do they sacrifice the hapless denizens to bring Antea back to life, or will Red muster up the willpower to elevate Antea from eternal sorrow?

    Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

    Hunt ghosts as two memorable characters in a story-driven Action-RPG where your decisions carry dramatic consequences. Torn between honoring your oath to the living and saving your departed partner, how far will you go for love?
