Free Ghostrunner DLC Adds Wave Mode, Assist Mode Today on PC and Consoles

New Paid Neon Pack Also Launches Today, Adding Stylish Swords and Gloves

CALABASAS, Calif. — August 31, 2021 — Co-Publishers 505 Games and All In! Games, alongside developers and partners, One More Level, 3D Realms, and Slipgate Ironworks™, today launches two new free game modes and a paid cosmetic Neon Pack for Ghostrunner, the first-person cyberpunk parkour action game, across PC and consoles. When the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions debut on Tuesday, September 28, each will contain the new Wave Mode and Neon Pack, plus all previous free DLC. The Neon Pack will come to Nintendo Switch in the coming weeks.

Clash against wave after wave of brutal, one-hit kill enemies in the new roguelike-inspired Wave Mode, an unpredictable gauntlet against the ferocious foes of Dharma Tower. Procedurally generated enemy types and formations, hero upgrades between rounds, and more turn Wave Mode into a new game within the game. Survive 20 rounds to unlock an exclusive sword.

Those who want to witness Ghostrunner’s story and enjoy the cyberpunk sights of Dharma Tower without fear of instant death will love Assist Mode. Dial back the intensity for a more accessible revenge story with three toggleable options: shorter cooldowns for more frequent ability use, slower gameplay to help with reaction times, and an extra life.

Cut down the Keymaster’s minions in style with the $4.99 / £4.69 / €4.99 Neon Pack, offering four sets of gloves and katanas: Neon Night, Afterglow, Luminescence, and Glint. Each drips with the vibrant colors reminiscent of cyberpunk and synthwave.

Today also marks the launch of Jack’s Bundle ($7.99 / £5.99 / €7.99 on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch). This collection includes all cosmetics launched in Ghostrunner up until now, from the new Neon Pack to the previous Winter and Metal Ox Packs.

Next week on September 7, the Summer Bundle ($12.99 / £9.99 / €12.99 on Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG) launches with all cosmetics in addition to Daniel Deluxe’s original Ghostrunner soundtrack and a digital artbook. The soundtrack and digital artbook are also available separately in the Art Bundle, ($7.99 / £5.99 / €7.99 on Steam, Epic, and GOG).

Ghostrunner is available now on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG. Ghostrunner will come to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S September 28.
