A new Ghostbusters game is reportedly in the works, potentially to tie into recent cinema release, Ghostbusters: Afterlife.
That’s according to Winston Zeddemore actor Ernie Hudson, who was speaking at the San Antonio Fan Fest earlier this week. The panel was captured on video by the Countdown Geeks YouTube channel, as spotted by Nintendo Life.
Hudson was speaking on his contribution to the 2009 Ghostbusters: The Video Game and asked if he’d be willing to star in another one. He responded “I just got an email, because we’re doing another video game. They’re scheduling it now to do the recording, and I’m not too sure who is going to do it. I know me and Danny (Dan Aykroyd), I think. I’m not sure Billy (Bill Murray) will do anything on it. So, there will be another video game… when they’ll bring it out? I don’t know, but it’s definitely happening.”
The actor would then go into further detail on the struggles the development team have had in getting his likeness right. “They’ve been sending me prototypes of the character to get the image right, which they seem to have a hard time somehow creating my image. It’s so weird to me that they can get Bill Murray, and Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis to look exactly how they look, but I end up looking like Eddie Murphy or somebody.”
Ernie didn’t give any details as to a developer for the project, but there’s a few clues out in the world. Back in October, Illfonic co-founder Raphael Saadiq let slip the Predator: Hunting Grounds studio was working on a Ghostbusters project. We’ll have to wait and see if anything further comes of this, but we’ll let you know if we hear more.
