With Google unveiling its new ARCore mobile augmented reality platform, Sony has announced that it will be one of the first companies to take advantage of the new technology with the release of the AR title Ghostbusters World.
Details are a little sketchy, but we do have the following official description:
“Ghostbusters World, is an all-new state-of-the-art augmented reality game currently in development. The game features the latest in AR and other mobile technologies and differentiates itself with skill-based gameplay and numerous other exciting features yet to be announced. Gameplay will enable players to battle and capture hundreds of ghosts from all dimensions of the franchise, including the films, TV shows, comic books, theme parks, and video games. The game will also feature new and unique ghosts to the franchise.”
“The Ghostbusters universe is rich in characters and Ghostbusters World is the perfect medium to get to know these characters in a whole new dimension,” said Ivan Reitman, director of the first two Ghostbusters movies and producer on the 2016 reboot.
