Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection is a stellar reboot that takes us back to the basics, adding new value to checkpoints and extra armor alike.
A textbook example of how to meaningfully update to a classic title while keeping the core appeal intact, Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection is a superb way to experience Capcom's arcade classic for both new and old fans alike.
An endearing and impeccably-made reboot of a Capcom classic, Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection not only looks really good, but it doesn't compromise on any of the aspects that made the original so special.
Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection isn’t firing on all cylinders constantly, but when you’re in the groove, on any difficulty, or even with co-op in high gear, it reminds me of why I started to like this series in the first place. Capcom did a pretty good job of preserving it and bringing it to a new generation.
Content-wise, Ghosts n’ Goblins Resurrection is exactly the same on all formats – nothing new has been added since its original Switch release. Playing the PS4 version (on a PS5) made me appreciate the experience it provides more, however, thanks to sharper visuals and what feels to me like more responsive controls.

Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection has a brutal difficulty curve but offers a wealth of options to tweak the difficulty of the game.
This long dormant franchise gets a rebirth on the Switch, and while it struggles to consistently hit that tough but fair sweet spot, there's enough charm in this brutal old-school platformer to warrant a look in
Capcom's notoriously difficult arcade classic Ghosts 'n Goblins now has a modern adaptation so put on your boxers and let's give it a go.
Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection is a harsh game that wastes little time in making it clear that this is entirely the point. Then again, why should Capcom’s venerated and vintage platform action series waste any time? If you’ve ever played any of the games in the series, you’ll already be well acquainted with its arcade-hard origins.
