With only five days to go until the release of
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, game developer
Illfonic held a launch party for the game last Friday night, and in addition to members of the press, and lucky members of the Ghosthead community, the event was also attended by notable alumni from the Ghostbusters theatrical world:
Ghostbusters: Afterlife stars
McKenna Grace and
Logan Kim, as well as director and scribe
Jason Reitman and
Gil Kenan.
In addition to a gift bag of goodies, those in attendance were also treated with the chance to get hands-on with the new game, thanks to a massive LAN party rig which was set up at the
The Django, a speakeasy-style jazz club located in the basement of Tribeca's
Roxy Hotel, mere blocks from
Hook&Ladder №8.
Attendees to the event remain tight-lipped, but one notable detail to emerge was the inclusion of
Mick Smiley's
Magic, as
revealed by
Jason Fitzsimmons at
GhostbustersNews.
Those in attendance slugged it out with some pretty pesky digital poltergeist, then stayed on to dance the night away with a selection of old favorites from the movie soundtracks thanks to on-site DJ Questlove.
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed is due out on October 18th, and will be available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, Xbox Series X and Series S, PlayStation 5.
