Ghostbusters Game Finds New Publisher?

4
Ghosbusters writer and actor Dan Aykroyd has revealed that the Ghostbusters video game will arrive next year under the Atari label, according to Kotaku.

Ghostbusters is slated to arrive on PC, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii and Nintendo DS. Terminal Reality is handling the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 editions, while Red Fly tackles the remaining versions. Aykroyd, who lent his voice and writing talents to the game, dropped the tidbits during a morning interview with Dallas radio station 105.3 KLLI.

Atari has yet to comment on the matter. Ghostbusters was one of the many games left without a publisher in the wake of the Activision Blizzard merger, during which the company retained a small number of Sierra titles.

Rights holder Sony Pictures previously suggested that the game, once expected to hit this fall, might be delayed into next year "to potentially coincide with the 25th anniversary of the original film in '09."
