Indie publisher Digerati is delighted to confirm the news that it’s bringing The Outbound Ghost, a hauntingly adorable RPG, to PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S later this year (Q4 2022). In development since 2020 at Swiss studio Conradical Games (aka solo dev Conrad Grindheim),The Outbound Ghost combines quests, exploration, turn-based combat, and crafting.
A story-driven adventure, players take control of an amnesiac spook with no memory of who they are or how they died. Arriving in Outbound, a small village with its own mysterious and tragic past, the spectral protagonist finds it haunted by former residents unable to pass over to the other side. The player must help the ghostly inhabitants resolve their unfinished earthly business and find peace, allowing the restless souls to ascend to the afterlife.
The Outbound Ghost is an adventure RPG about helping ghosts ascend to the afterlife. The town of Outbound is, quite literally, a ghost town – a home to troubled spooks with unresolved earthly issues, condemning them to an eternity haunting their old *ahem* haunts. Battle the past, gain new abilities, solve puzzles, and uncover the mysteries of Outbound to help its unliving residents find peace, freeing them from the shackles of their ghostly limbo.
