New Map
S.C.Y. County Courthouse
Strange activity reported at this Courthouse has made it difficult to conduct legal proceedings. It would seem that decades of dark activity and paranormal contact have made the courthouse a hotbed for ghost activity. Halls, offices, and courtrooms connect together to form a uniquely entwined gameplay space.
New Ghost Type
Possessor
Scuttle, Hellion, and the famous Terror Sentinel provide the Possessor Ghost type with a unique playstyle.
Use unique abilities and the Ultimate Possession to take over Civilians and even Busters!
New Enemy Type
Drudges
From the depths of the Ghost Realm come the drudges to help! Summoned by Tobin, these helpful little entities help the ghost haunt the building and scare humans. Busters would be wise to focus on eliminating these helpers and the Ghost can use the rifts to spawn more!

A singular minion that the ghost can plant hidden on the ground or inside of objects. This minion will spring to life when their stasis field is tripped and latch on to the unsuspecting victim!
Extreme Ghostbusters
