Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden review - a haunting story of consequence


Eurogamer's review of Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, a poignant story of grief and injustice.

Image credit: Focus Entertainment / Eurogamer The choices you make aren't really about how you assess any one individual haunting, but where you draw the line when the person you're trying to be, and the strong emotions a question can bring come into conflict. I'll admit: I took the middle road, and knocked the difficulty down a notch at this halfway point, leaving me with combat that was still an interesting challenge, but didn't outright require me to grind to perfect my build. If Don't Nod's earlier game, Life is Strange, captured the big melodrama of my messy teenage feelings, then Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden finds me at the right time to be struck by its take on difficult commitments, the fear of loss and the profound harms we can do to each other when our principles go unexamined.
