Ghost Hunter

Ghost Hunter is an online multiplayer PvE extraction game inspired by Chinese folklore, mythology and legends. You play as a Taoist exorcist with supernatural abilities, using magical artifacts, talismans and other tools to complete missions, hunt ghosts and demons, and gather supplies and treasures in haunted locations.

The Exorcism Bureau

As the spirit realm invades and demons spread through the mortal world, the Exorcism Bureau gathers powerful Taoist masters to protect people. The Bureau watches the spirit realm and the movements of nether ruins, suppressing rebellious demons and monsters. You answer its call, venturing into dangerous lands to subdue evil, cleanse cursed places and resist the spirit realm’s influence.

Five-player co-op

Five players can team up in PvE co-op, switching between first-person and third-person views. Each Taoist master has unique skills and magical tools, and teammates support one another as they tackle exorcism missions and face fierce ghost kings. Some masters can call on gods such as Lord Guan or Master Lü; others cast spells in mid-air and send flying swords against demons.

Choose a master to suit your playstyle and combine their abilities with exclusive weapons, talismans and magical tools. Weapons include the Green Dragon Blade, Peach Wood Sword, Yin-Yang Umbrella and Willow Leaf Whip.

Capture and train spirits

You can use soul urns to capture weakened evil spirits, then train and upgrade them to help fight other enemies. Spirits range from low-tier minions to high-tier boss spirits, with different support skills and power levels. Combine them with your Taoist abilities, talismans and artifacts to make use of their strengths and cover your weaknesses.

Tools and supplies

The game includes dozens of folk items, magical tools, Taoist formations and pills. Paralyzing Talismans freeze enemies, Willow Leaves reveal hidden spirits, Corpse-Suppressing Nails stop evil, Golden Blade Talismans break curses, Fire Curse burns evil, and Rejuvenation Talismans heal. Other items include Boy's Urine, Black Dog Blood, Ink Lines, Bagua Mirrors, Demon-Reflecting Mirrors, Sanqing Bells, the Thunderous Formation, Pojun Pills, Little Ghost Palanquin and Newspaper Flying Device.

Explore haunted realms

Large maps allow free-roaming exploration, with random starting points and no fixed routes. Ghosts appear randomly, ghost kings descend unpredictably, supply points change location, and folk event tasks arise unexpectedly. Random item altars and blessing statues can replenish or boost your abilities.

Main and side quests focus on exorcism and draw on Chinese folk traditions, with missions that reveal strange tales and hidden stories. Side activities include transporting corpses from a funeral home, taking part in ghost weddings, liberating restless souls, purifying yin energy and using coffin nails to suppress spirits.

Gather and trade

While exploring, you can smash jars, open chests, gather spirit plants, mine spiritual ores, dig for treasure and search containers. These activities yield materials, equipment, tools and rare antiques. Use resources to upgrade Taoist powers and magical tools, craft artifacts, protective eight trigrams and formation pills, or sell items at the trading firm to buy supplies and shape your combat setup.

Enemies and missions

The haunted domains hold creatures ranging from ghost slaves, yin soldiers and evil ghosts to fierce ghosts and ghost kings. Enemies include demons, devils, ghosts, goblins, spirits and corpses, with dozens of unique foes and different abilities. They include the secretive Ghost Bride Queen, the brutal General Jiang Corpse King, the Paper Boy and Paper Girl, and the vicious Old Lady with a Cat Face.
