Wondering if Ghostrunner 2 will have an early access period? Stick around. We’ll cover everything you need to know about loading into the game prior to its official release this week.
Ghostrunner 2 is releasing in full this Thursday, October 26. The new title will feature an interactive storyline improved with better skills and massive boss fights, all set to a synthwave soundtrack to complement its post-apocalyptic cyberpunk setting. Fans of the series have all this and more to look forward to as we near launch, tough you may be able to load into the game sooner rather than later. If you’re looking to play as soon as possible, here’s how you can get a head start on your Ghostrunner 2 playthrough.
Does Ghostrunner 2 Have Early Access?
The early access period for Ghostrunner 2 is primed to begin 48 hours prior to the official release date. This means eligible players can expect to dive in on Tuesday, October 24, two days before standard launch on Thursday. Those planning to play early will have a sizable head start on their playthrough, though this won’t count towards 505 Games’ $10,000 Speedrun Challenge, set to start on launch day.
How to Get Early Access to Ghostrunner 2
Pre-purchase of Ghostrunner 2 Brutal Edition will net you 48 hours of early access to the game in addition to a handful of other bonuses. This includes the Aqua Animated Sword and Hand Skin, Design 24R Motorcycle Skin, and the Ghostrunner 2 Season Pass. Priced at just $69.99, you’re looking at a pretty good deal for the most extensive edition of the game.
If you haven’t yet pre-ordered your copy of the Brutal Edition, there’s still a bit of time left to place your order, claim your bonuses, and participate in the early access period. What’s more, you can easily upgrade your edition if you’ve already placed an order for a different version, according to developer and publisher 505 Games. You’ll simply need to pay the difference to get in on the benefits.
