A Cult Classic Reimagined For Today
Ghost Master: Resurrection doesn’t simply revisit the past, it rebuilds it. Powered by a new engine and enhanced with updated visuals and systems, this version stays true to the spirit of the original while opening the door for a new audience.
Set across the troubled town of Gravenville, each mission drops you into a carefully designed location – whether that’s a crumbling asylum, a heavily guarded police station, or a chaotic frat house. These aren’t just backdrops; they’re playgrounds for carefully orchestrated fear.
Every level is essentially a puzzle, but one that plays out through supernatural mischief rather than traditional mechanics. Your goal isn’t simply to scare for the sake of it though. In this one you’ll get to manipulate, escalate, and ultimately complete specific objectives using the tools at your disposal.
Commanding Your Ghostly Crew
You’ll build and deploy a varied roster of spirits, from banshees and gremlins to more unusual entities, each with their own abilities and quirks. Some excel at subtle psychological pressure, while others thrive on outright chaos.
The key lies in how you combine them. Timing hauntings, chaining effects, and exploiting the environment turns each scenario into a layered challenge where experimentation is encouraged.
Expanded Content From Day One
The Core Edition of Ghost Master: Resurrection doesn’t hold anything back, bundling in additional content right from the start. Included DLC packs such as Until Dawn and Ghost Adrift expand the experience, adding more scenarios and ways to play.
For those looking to push things further, a £32.99 Season Pass promises a steady stream of new content. With multiple DLC packs planned, including new locations, modes, and characters, the haunting of Gravenville is set to continue evolving well beyond launch.
“Ghost Master has always been a unique game — blending strategy, humour, and supernatural chaos in a way players still talk about years later,” said a Evgenii from Mechano Story Studio. “With Ghost Master: Resurrection we wanted to respect everything fans loved about the original while updating and adding more surprises for modern platforms and audiences.“
“The original Ghost Master built an incredibly passionate fanbase,” said Emanuel Wall, Director at Strategy First. “Ghost Master: Resurrection brings that cult classic back to life with modern technollogy, new content, and a haunting experience ready for a whole new generation of players.“
A Welcome Return For A Unique Strategy Experience
At £19.99, Ghost Master: Resurrection feels like a confident return for a series that always stood apart.
For players looking for something a little different, a strategy game where fear is your greatest weapon and creativity is constantly rewarded, this is a revival that feels well worth exploring. Gravenville is waiting… and it’s never been more fun to haunt.
