Activision is reportedly working on a new Ghostbusters game for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and it is expected to release alongside the upcoming Ghostbusters movie.

According to Retail Merchandiser, development on merchandise for the new movie began “early in the filmmaking process.” That apparently includes a new “full-fledged” video game coming from Activision.

Activision has not confirmed if a game is in development and it is not clear from the report if the game will feature the all-female cast in the Ghostbusters reboot. However, the report does state the new game is not a part of the toys-to-life game Lego Dimensions, which features a recently released Ghostbusters add-on.


The report also mentions the positive reception to 2009’s Ghostbusters: The Video Game generated a “renewed interest” in the Ghostbusters IP. That game was written by original Ghostbusters Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis and voice acted by the original cast, including Bill Murray and Ernie Hudson. For more on Ghostbusters:
