Ghost Edge

THE FOREST REMEMBERS EVERY DEATH

Run. Fight. Fall. Return.

Ghost Edge is a story-driven pixel-art action runner about an old warrior trapped in a forest that refuses to let him die

Race across handcrafted paths, master jumps and dashes, survive deadly traps, and face powerful Executioners in cinematic slow-motion duels. Every defeat returns you to the beginning, but the forest changes, the story moves forward, and new pieces of the mystery begin to surface

How far can you run before the forest remembers you?

The game is actively evolving. Balance, performance, visual effects, level chunks, dialogue, and story content may change between builds. Local progress may also be reset during major beta updates

For the best experience, play in fullscreen with sound enabled
