What it is
Ghosts ’n Goblins Resurrection is a Capcom action platformer released for Windows in 2021. It draws on Ghosts ’n Goblins and Ghouls ’n Ghosts while presenting a new storybook world, where knight Arthur sets out for the Demon Realm after the princess is kidnapped. The game uses simple controls, but its stages are designed to be punishing. You fight through strange, spooky environments filled with distinctive enemies, with the series’ demanding gameplay remaining a central part of the experience. The Steam listing includes single-player and multiplayer, co-op, shared or split-screen co-op, and shared or split-screen play. It also lists full controller support, achievements, trading cards, Steam Cloud, and Family Sharing.
