Ghostrunner sought to provide a fast-paced parkour experience mixed with combat, appealing to gamers who were fond of perfecting their skills to complete each level in the shortest time possible.

The satisfying gameplay and addicting loop of trial-and-error for the best runs ensured that Ghostrunner quickly became popular. Following its 2020 release, the game has remained popular and reached millions of new players recently.

Ghostrunner has sold over 2.5 million units to date.

Why it matters: Ghostrunner is a challenging game and encourages experimentation. This aspect also pushed many players away, but it appears to have found millions of fans due to its positive qualities.
