Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection is a reboot of the arcade-to-console game, retaining the classic, brutal platforming of the original with updated graphics and a storybook style. It’s scheduled for a February 25, 2021, release.
The Arcade Stadium itself is a bit more involved. The base game is free and comes with a free copy of 1943 — The Battle of Midway. From there, players have a few options.
They can purchase the 30 Title Pack, which includes all 30 classic games plus the original Ghosts ‘n Goblins, or they can buy 10 Title Packs, with the original Ghosts ’n Goblins available as a standalone purchase. These include:
Pack 1: Dawn of the Arcade (’84 – ’88)
