Don’t Nod, who previously developed Vampry, recently sat down with PLAY Magazine (Issue 32, November 2023,) to discuss the game, shedding some light on the game’s inspiration. Specifically, the gameplay, as many have already noted, strikes some resemblance to Santa Monica’s rebooted God of War games. That’s not by accident, as the game’s Creative Director, Philippe Moreau, states that when it comes to the gameplay of Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, it was mainly inspired by God of Way.

“We decided very early in the development to just begin a new fight system from scratch. So we took God Of War as the main inspiration, [particularly with the] game feel and how the camera is close to the character and [you] can move by strafing. […] Compared to Vampyr, it’s a big improvement.”
