Capcom's twice-canceled MMO Ghosts'n Goblins Online may soon rise from the dead as a free-to-play online action game, pending community approval after its recent appearance (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=179249778) at Steam Greenlight.
Ghosts'n Goblins Online was originally slated (http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/gng/gng6.htm) as a multiplatform release in 2003, though development ceased prior to its completion. A second attempt, originally titled Magyechon Online, was seemingly canned as well.
Seed 9, creator of the canceled Magyechon Online, is also behind the newly-launched Steam Greenlight campaign. Seed 9 announced that the revitalized Ghosts'n Goblins Online will feature co-op platforming, PVP combat, and frequent updates that introduce new items and upgrades.
Ghosts'n Goblins set a new standard for platformer difficulty back in 1985, taunting players with its cruel enemy patterns both in arcades and on the 8-bit Nintendo Entertainment System. The series continued with 1988's arcade and Sega Genesis sequel Ghouls'n Ghosts, then reached its apex with 1991's Super NES release Super Ghouls'n Ghosts. Seed 9 notes that series veterans will want to try Ghosts'n Goblins Online's "Demonic Dimension" mode, which retains the series' traditional two-hit-death mechanic.
Capcom-licensed MMOs have faced difficulty in making it to market, as the Neowiz-developed Mega Man Online (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/03/14/mega-man-online-officially-canned/) was canceled last year. If Ghosts'n Goblins Online proves successful, Steam Greenlight might be the Blue Bomber's next destination.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Ghosts'n Goblins Online resurfaces at Steam Greenlight (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/09/17/ghostsn-goblins-online-resurfaces-at-steam-greenlight/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Tue, 17 Sep 2013 15:30:00 EST.
