Ghost-hunting action-adventure with varied gameplay blending investigation and combat. The B-movie humour and original world are charming. Technical production is decent without being memorable. An entertaining title for paranormal fans on PS2.

Description

Is Ghosthunter still worth playing in 2026?

An action adventure from SCEE Cambridge, Ghosthunter follows a policeman trapped in a supernatural hunt after accidentally freeing hostile spirits, which he must capture using a special device. The horror mood tinged with humour, the ghost capture mechanic and the variety of environments win over fans of paranormal adventure. The wayward camera and a dated production weigh on it. A title for fans of supernatural action adventure and the curious about Sony Europe productions on PS2.
