“When it comes to the developer Don’t Nod most people will think of their episodic narrative games with Life is Strange, Tell Me Why, and even Twin Mirror but few will remember that the very first game the company made is the ironically named Remember Me. Following this they released an underrated gem in the form of Vampyr that showed the developer still had teeth when it came to delivering a solid RPG alongside its narrative prowess. Now the team has returned with an action RPG focused around a pair of ghost slayers called “Banishers” and how far they might be willing to go to remain together in Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden. What results is a love story that is unlike any other that proves that Don’t Nod certainly knows how to write an engrossing tale but still struggles to deliver compelling gameplay alongside it.”
