Ghostrunner is stylish, but not as punk as I'd like it to be.

Perhaps it's because the world feels more dystopian than ever before, or maybe it's a lack of original ideas, but 2020 has seen a renaissance of cyberpunk, the subgenre made popular by authors like Phillip K. Dick and brought to life in movies like Bladerunner and The Matrix. From Ubisoft's Hyperscape to CDProjeckt's Cyberpunk 2077, the neon lights and dystopian cityscapes that define the Sci-fi subgenre have reemerged in videogames in a big way. The latest game to put the aesthetic to use is Ghostrunner, a first-person platformer that puts you in the cybernetic shoes of the titular character. Armed with a sword and bereft of his memories, you must figure out who you really are and unravel a conspiracy, while relearning how to be a badass cyber ninja.
