Development[]

On March 6, 2015, Cryptozoic revealed they want to do a "full-blown, standalone (yet compatible!) gaming experience in the near future" inspired by Ghostbusters II. [1]

On August 10, 2015, in an interview conducted on July 30 at GenCon, Associate Game Designer Mataio Wilson confirmed there will be a second game based on the second movie. There will be Vigo and the Scoleri Brothers. The crew is still trying to figure out the Slime in Bathtub Attack. There will be new mechanics like the Slime Blower to deal with characters and puzzles in different ways. There would also be more characters from the comics, toys, and cartoons. [2]

On March 11, 2016, Cryptozoic announced there will be a Ghostbusters: The Board Game II. The Kickstarter campaign launches in April. There will be new game elements, including Slime Blower Pack Ghostbusters, Ooze entities that can split apart and join back together, allies, new equipment like Ecto Goggles and Portal Destabilizers. The game features an original story once again by Ghostbusters comics writer Erik Burnham. The Ghostbusters are investigating mood slime that has flooded the city, creating earthquakes and riots in another attempt to bring Vigo and his minions back. The new figures are once again based on designs by Ghostbusters comic book artist Dan Schoening. [3] Erik Burnham added he and Mataio Wilson worked together even more closely tailor the story to the game. [4] The game is a stand alone expansion and can be played either way, combined with the first game or played on it's own. [5] [6]

On March 22, 2016, Cryptozoic announced the Kickstarter campaign would launch on April 11. Touted features include switching between Proton and Slime Blower Packs with new custom figures and double-sided Character Cards, battle challenging new Plazm enemies that combine into stronger versions to attack and split up in defense, are immune to Proton Streams, and can only be taken down by Ghostbusters wielding Slime Blower packs, use new Ghosts to bring new Slime tokens that can inhibit the Ghostbusters' sight, movement, maneuvers and combat rolls, recover stolen experimental Ghostbusting equipment and level the playing field with new weapon, trap, utility and tome cards to survive challenging Event Cards. A playable scenario will be on display at WonderCon from March 25-27. Images were included of Ray and Winston with Slimer Blower Packs, Peter and Egon in GB2 Courtroom suits with Proton Packs, and photos of 3D mock ups of the Ray figure with Slime Blower pack. [7] The figures will be a bit larger at a size of 30mm, a different plastic will be used, and they will be exaggerating the sculpts. The slime will either be -1LOS or -1Movement, and so on as it will hinder depending on what the player is hit with. [8]

On March 23, 2016, Cryptozoic confirmed each Ghostbuster will have a Slime Blower Pack and Courtroom figure. [9]

On March 30, 2016, Cryptozoic confirmed there will be Vigo, Scoleri Brothers, Janosz Poha, and Granny Gross figures. [10]

A Kickstarter for "Ghostbusters: The Board Game II" was started on April 11, 2016 at 10 am Pacific Daily Time (PDT). The fund goal was $250,000. An early bird special was offered on the Proton Slinger Tier for the first 24 hours (10 am PDT April 11th to 9:59am PDT April 12th). The story revolves around Mood Slime flooding the city, causing earthquakes and riots. As a result, Vigo the Carpathian has risen and is ransacking Manhattan with the Scoleri Brothers and Janosz Poha. The Ghostbusters will use new gear like Slime Blowers to take down Ghosts and new entities such as Haunted Humans and Plazm. Each of the four Ghostbusters will now have a double sided player card with new abilities that take advantage of Equipment cards and Positively Charged Mood Slime from the Ecto-1a's Ecto-Tank. Teamwork is a more crucial strategy as many entities can only be trapped with Mood Slime, Proton Streams or, in some cases, a specific combination of both. The game will contain over 50 new miniatures including a pair of new Ghostbusters for each player that allow for switching between Proton and Slime Blower Packs. There will be 20 Equipment cards, 12 Event cards, and over 30 new colored snap on bases that can be used for everything from calling out your character to advanced rules for the entity they are attached to. [11] There are three brand-new campaigns that include require strategy in order to navigate around and take down the Scoleri Brothers, the Washington Square Ghost, Vigo the Carpathian, and more. The Ghostbusters have to fight their to the Statue of Liberty, then ride it to defeat a Mega Plazm that guards Vigo's army of ghosts. New Equipment Cards include Class-S equipment for each Ghostbuster. Slime Blower Pack Ghostbusters allow you to convert ghosts and oozes into helpful entities. Searchable Goo Piles contain gear stolen from the Firehouse or can trigger challenge events. The new Plazm entities can split apart and join together. Optional snap-on bases add challenging new rules for expert players. Variant Trap Mechanic rules also add more depth to gameplay. [12]

On April 11, 2016, the game was funded. The Statue of Liberty upgrade was revealed to be the first stretch goal of $275,000. It was unlocked. The Statue was upgraded from a tile to a 100mm figure for the base game (Ghostbuster tier) and above. It is a rideable vehicle and Line of Sight is unobstructed. A new social media goal was revealed. If 8 out of the 10 social media tasks are unlocked, all base game and above backers will receive a Class 3 30mm Gimme Grabber ghost. [13] The 2nd stretch goal, $300,000, was introduced: a Class 1 ghost called Brain Matter. 3 Brain Matter figures will be added to each base game if it is unlocked. [14] Brain Matter was later unlocked and the 3rd stretch goal, $325,000, was introduced: a Class 2 ghost called Soar Throat. [15] Soar Throat was later unlocked and the 4th stretch goal, $350,000, was introduced: a Class 4 ghost called Grundel. It is for the Proton Slinger tier (Deluxe game) and above. [16] The Grundel was unlocked and the 5th stretch goal, $375,000, was introduced: X-Cop. [17] X-Cop was unlocked and three figures were added to the base game and above. The 6th stretch goal, $400,000, was revealed: Garrett Miller. He would come with a double-sided Character card and specific Class S Equipment card but available to Proton Slinger tier and above. [18] Miller was unlocked and added to the Proton Slinger and above tiers. The 7th stretch goal was introduced, $450,000, the The Roylance Guide to Secret Societies and Sects. [19]

On April 12, 2016, the 7th stretch goal was unlocked and the 8th stretch goal, $500,000, was revealed: Roland Jackson. He would come with a double-sided Character card and specific Class S Equipment card but available to Proton Slinger tier and above. [20] The #ImWithWinston social media stretch goal was completed. Cryptozoic also reposted links for the tutorial video, rules PDF, kickstarter video, and avatars. [21]

On April 13, 2016, the 8th stretch goal was unlocked and the 9th stretch goal, $550,000, was revealed: a Class 4 ghost called Bug Eye Ghost but available to Proton Slinger tier and above. It would come with a Ghost and Scenario Card. [22]

On April 14, 2016, the Ain't Afraid of No Facebook and #Venkman Art social media stretch goals were met - bringing the total to 3. [23]

On April 16, 2016, Cryptozoic confirmed the Giga Plazm in the Tully expansion is 100mm, the Mega Plazm in the base game is 50mm, and the 9 Super Plazms in the base game are 30mm in size. [24] The Giga Plazm in the Tully Expansion pack will utilize all the Super Plazms and the pack will pay tribute to that scene in Ghostbusters II where the Statue of Liberty smashes the Psychomagnotheric Slime that engulfs Manhattan Museum of Art. [25]

On April 17, 2016, Dan Schoening wrapped up on drawings related to the Proton Slinger tier. [26]

On April 18, 2016, Cryptozoic posted part one of a preview about the Equipment Cards and Plazm. A group of slime-worshipping cultists broke into the Firehouse, stole all of the Ghostbusters' gear and hid it all over the city. Players can get one piece of Equipment whenever they Investigate a Goo Pile on the map. There are four types of equipment: Weapons, Tomes, Utilities, and Traps. Weapons give players advantages when making Combat Rolls. Tomes allow a Ghostbuster to bend the rules of reality in interesting ways .Utilities aid in movement, scouting, and information-gathering. Traps can help to clear the streets efficiently and to great reward. Equipment Cards previewed are Spates Catalog, Boson Caster, and Mobile X-Ray Machine. Using a piece of Equipment doesn't take up any Actions to activate. Once used, the Equipment Card is flipped face down to show that it's been expended. You can transfer Equipment to other Ghostbusters in the same way that you transfer Trapped Ghosts and Extracted Plazms. Between Scenarios, all Equipment Cards flip face up again, and can be used once more in your battles against the paranormal. On top of the general-use tools and gadgets that make up the Equipment Deck, all Ghostbusters also have access to special Class-S Equipment specific to their Character Cards, which unlock at level 5. These super-powerful pieces of Equipment really pack a punch, but can only be used by the Ghostbusters that unlocked them. Super-Plazm card previewed. They are big, goopy monsters that can split into smaller Entities or combine into larger ones, and they have a habit of bullying the Ghostbusters! They tend to stay in one place, often guarding Goo Piles or passageways, and can only be defeated by using a Slime Blower Pack. Egon has engineered the Slime Blower Packs to have a reverse-polarity vacuum function on them. When you've hit a Plazm with enough positively-charged Mood Slime to quell it, you can extract the useful goop from the puddle and deposit it into the Ecto-1a' fancy new Ecto-Tank. The tank atomizes the now-positively-charged Plazm into the nearby area, giving the Ghostbusters a boost in morale and ability. These extra boosts include taking free actions, removing Slime from yourself, and re-charging a piece of Equipment. Depending on which Ghostbuster is in play, the player can receive even more beneficial boosts. The Twitter Terror social media stretch goal was also met. [27]

On April 20, 2016, part 2 of the game play preview was posted. It talked about Event Cards and Haunted Humans. Event Cards are designed to add an element of unpredictability to each Scenario. When players investigate a Goo Pile, there's a chance there will be an Event Card. The card can be something minor like a localized rainstorm of Slime or as difficult as a big Entity showing up. Each Event Card will have a specific goal that the Ghostbusters must accomplish, often in a certain amount of time. If goal is completed on time, the player will often receive XP, Equipment, Plazm for the Ecto-Tank, and more. 3 Event Cards were previewed: I am the Gatekeeper, At Least It's Not Blood, and Plazm Spasm. Haunted Humans were explained to be a new sub-type of Entity. They're Ghosts who have used negatively-charged Mood Slime to take control of the bodies of normal citizens, changing them into horrifying creatures. The Granny Gross and Ghost Card was previewed. The Local Haunt Social Media Stretch Goal was achieved bringing the total to five. A new goal, "Occult Reference Net," replaced #ImARealGhostbuster task due to low response and safety issues. The new goal asks to post a video link http://bit.ly/OccultRefNet to agregate sites such as 9Gag to help it go viral. 1,500 clicks among all posts complete the task. [28]

On April 21, 2016, the 9th stretch goal was unlocked and the 10th stretch goal, $600,000, was revealed: Kylie Griffin but available to Proton Slinger tier and above. She would come with a double-sided Character Card and specific Class-S Equipment Card. [29]

On April 22, 2016, part 3 of the game play preview was posted. It talked about player abilities and boss. It also provided a free demo to download and a recording of a game session. Each Ghostbuster will have a unique Ecto-Tank ability that can be used as soon as that Ghostbuster reaches the required Level. At the beginning of the round, before the first player begins his or her turn, your team as a whole must decide whether to expend the Deposited Plazms to activate the Ecto-Tank. Once activated, the Ecto-Tank gives your Ghostbusters the ability to do something for free any time during his turn. These abilities range from removing Slime from an adjacent Ghostbuster to re-charging a spent piece of Equipment. Peter, Ray, Winston, and Egon's player cards were previewed. There will be two new sub-entities - Mini-Bosses and Bosses which are a step up from Ghosts. Mini-Bosses will usually be a Class 4 or Class 5, will have a specific goal to accomplish, and are difficult to trap but they give more rewards when defeated than other Ghosts. One Mini-Boss is the spectrally-empowered Janosz Poha. If the Ghostbusters get too close, hell slime them. If they are too far away, he'll push you out of Line of Sight. Janosz' Entity Card is previewed. One of the bosses will be the Washington Square Ghost. It eats other Ghosts on the Map and gets stronger as it does. A new mechanic added to the mini-bosses and bosses is "Resist" and it reflects their unwillingness to be subdued. When a Ghostbuster attempts to Trap an Entity with Resist, the Ghost will roll a Combat Die and add its Resist value to that roll. The player can contest the Ghost's roll with a Combat Die plus the number of Streams or Mood Slimes on that Entity. Every time the player loses the contested roll, the Entity moves like the player missed a shot at it. To help ensure winning a roll, the player can continue putting Streams or Mood Slime on it until. [30]

On April 25, 2016, Cryptozoic confirmed the 7th social media stretch goal was attained: Ghoster Child. [31] Cryptozoic posted part one of a preview of the mini figures. They showed the prototype minis and compared them to the final versions. The Scoleri Brothers were confirmed as the first boss battle and their mini figures were previewed. [32]

On April 26, 2016, Cryptozoic confirmed the 8th social media stretch goal was met and the Grabber Ghost was unlocked for all Ghostbuster tier and above supporters. Grabber was described as a "sneaky Class 4 Ghost who targets the Ghostbusters with his disruptive pranks. When he enters a space occupied by a Ghostbuster, he grabs them and runs away with them, dragging them through obstacles and terrain." [33]

On April 27, 2016, Cryptozoic announced a third add-on expansion - Get Real. It contains 23 minis inspired by The Real Ghostbusters and Ally Cards that introduce new gameplay elements. The add-on is a CZE-exclusive and costs $45. Peter, Ray, Egon, Winston, and Janine can be swapped in for their alternate versions or used as Allies. The Ecto-2 will be a 50mm vehicle. Up to two Ghostbusters can ride it and it moves up to eight spaces uninhibited by map obstacles or other Entities but there is a limit to how many times it can be used. Eight Goo Piles, five Gates, and four Traps will also be included in the add-on. When the player draws an Ally Card, that figure is placed onto the space where the Goo Pile was and gains an extra turn. Ally characters have unique abilities that assist the Ghostbusters in their fight. Allies only lasts for a little while before the rift in the dimensional fabric repairs itself and they return to their parallel universe. [34] The 10th stretch goal was unlocked and the 11th stretch goal, $650,000, was revealed: Peoplebuster Egon but available to Proton Slinger tier and above. He would come with a map tile and a Ghost Card with "an interesting flipside." [35]

On April 29, 2016, Cryptozoic posted part 2 of their Mini Preview. Included were first looks of designs of two ghosts and Louis figure in Tully Expansion, designs of Captain Jack and crew and Slimer mini in Slimer Expansion, and Egon mini in Get Real Pack. [36]

On April 30, 2016, Cryptozoic revealed the Giga Plazm in the Tully Expansion is the slime shell that encased the Manhattan Museum of Art in Ghostbusters II. The scenario incorporates the Super Plazms from the base game. They also fit on this boss. [37] For Cryptozoic's introduction video, the Southland Ghostbusters fan franchise supplied the Proton Packs. Ernie Hudson had the "GB1 Super Hero Pack," 2 "GB2 Semi-Hero Packs," and 1 vacuum formed pack to choose from. He requested the lightest pack and was outfitted with one of the Semi-Hero packs. The pack was built and finished the night before at the last minute. At some point in the shooting of the video, Hudson got "a little too excited" and the thrower was broken in half. For the rest of the filming, Hudson wore the vacuum formed pack. Cryptozoic provided Hudson with a flightsuit to wear. The name patch was actually a printed piece of paper. [38]

On May 2, 2016, Cryptozoic posted part 3 of their mini preview. They showed rough sculpt concepts of the Washington Square Ghost and the Grundel. They also clarified the amount of minis that would be in a base game versus the base game bought by pledging at the Ghostbusters tier. The base game has 55 minis whereas through the Ghostbusters tier, there is 56 because of the Grabber Ghost. 10 Class-1 Street Creepers became 5 Street Creepers and 5 Brain Matters, 8 Class-2 Snake Heads became 4 Snake Heads and 4 Soar Throats, 6 Class-3 Mail Frauds became 3 Mail Frauds and 3 X-Cops. [39]

On May 3, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Lady Liberty mini. [40] Cryptozoic also clarified the game will have multiple colors of snap-on bases that can be applied to any ghost and give them special attributes, one of which is "Hive" which essentially is the same as "Impossible Mode" from the first game. When entity is hit or missed, all other like entities on map move as if they were hit/missed. "Amplified" will amplify certain stats on entities. This makes them stronger! "Shadow" lets ghosts move 1 space towards the nearest Ghostbuster at the end of every round. "Marked" will pertain to specific event, equipment or abilities that ask the player to Mark an entity. That specific card will tell you what that mark means. "Caustic" changes this entities slime type to Caustic. They are not normal slimes. When counting the number of Slimes your Ghostbuster has, do not count Caustic. These cannot be removed until the end of the scenario. If you acquire 3 Caustic Slime, you die! And subsequently lose. [41] [42] [43]

On May 4, 2016, Cryptozoic announced a new second social media campaign: "Psychokinetic Surge!" and explained three tasks required to unlock it. The first task is "Get Real Facebook." Participants just have to share Cryptozoic's Get Real Pack Facebook post: http://bit.ly/GetRealFB. The total number of shares needed is 1,000. The second task is "Occult Reference Net 3.0." Participants need to click on Cryptozoic's link for the Kickstarter video: http://bit.ly/OccultRefNet and post it to aggregate sites such as 9GAG to help it go viral and get a lot more clicks. The total number needed is 3,000. The third task is "Poll-tergeist." Participants need to complete a survey to help Cryptozoic determine which eight Equipment Cards will come with the Psychokinetic Surge Pack: http://bit.ly/PollGeist. There are four categories of Equipment Cards that are part of the survey: Weapons, Tomes, Traps, and Utilities. The top two from each category will be transformed into real Equipment Cards. The survey needs 200 participants. If the campaign is completed, the Psychokinetic Surge Pack will unlock. It will contain a pack of 10 cards - two Event Cards and eight Equipment Cards - and is a CZE Exclusive for all Ghostbuster tier backers and above. [44] Cryptozoic later announced an update to the stretch goals. Peoplebusters Egon was replaced by Eduardo Rivera as the $650,000 goal. He will come with his own double-sided Character Card and specific Class-S Equipment Card but included in the Proton Slinger tier and above. A $666,000 an $700,000 were introduced but not revealed.

For $20, this new exclusive add-on expansion includes new variant rules, four Peoplebusters figures, four double-sided cards, their Ghost form on one side and their character stats on the other, and four double-sided map tiles featuring Boo York and Boo York Courtrooms. They can be either a Class-3 Ghost or a playable character. Thus, the pack can be a special rules variant for Player-versus-Player gameplay. Peoplebusters Egon can prevent Ghostbusters from using Equipment Cards and can utilize his Slime Pack to immobilize our heroes. Peoplebusters Peter has the ability to make all Ghosts harder to hit and can also use his Slime Pack to stop the Ghostbusters in their tracks. Peoplebusters Winston, created for this game, hunts the Ghostbusters down, using his Slime Pack to immobilize them and he prevents the Ghostbusters from depositing Ghosts into the Spirit World. Peoplebusters Ray uses his Slime Pack to keep the Ghostbusters stationary and has the special ability to prevent them from removing Slime. [45]

On May 7, 2016, Vigo was previewed. He is the ultimate boss of the game. Vigo has a Soul Drain ability that pulls the soul out of the player's Ghostbuster and draws it toward the painting. If the Ghostbuster's soul enters the painting, the Scenario is lost. Slime Blower Packs have to be used to push him back into the painting with positively-charged Psychomagnotheric Slime. The Proton Packs can then seal up the dimensional rift that he opened, trapping him back in his painting until the next time someone completes the ritual of summoning. [50] The 12th stretch goal was later unlocked and the 13th stretch goal, $750,000, was revealed: Killerwatt but available to Proton Slinger tier and above.

X-Cop is a Class-3 Haunted Human. About every two weeks, Cryptozoic will be posting a glimpse of what is new with design, testing, and production. The Pledge Manager will run for about three weeks. It will allow backers to calculate and pay for shipping, update their shipping address, confirm the items for which they pledged, and give one last opportunity to get all of the CZE Exclusives from the campaign. Backers cannot decrease their original pledge amount. An email will be sent when the Pledge Manager is live. There will also be "some exciting Ghostbusters 'lifestyle' product offerings" when the Pledge Manager is live. [59]

On May 20, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a look at map tile design and an update with the pledge manager. The Corner Alley, Wall of cars, Laundromat, and Ghost Train Tracks tiles were featured.

It will have 1" wooden versions of the four classic Ghostbusters and Slimer, as well as an over-sized Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man. The price will be $15. [60]

On May 27, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Player vs Player game mode. The story behind the Peoplebusters pack is the Ghostbusters managed to trap the Mayor of Boo York while he was haunting Lady Liberty in our universe. The Trap with the Mayor must be extracted from the city before Ghosts totally overwhelm the statue and release the Mayor. The Peoplebusters have arrived to set the the Mayor free before the Ghostbusters can put him in their Containment Unit. It is a three way battle between the Ghostbusters, Peoplebusters, and ghosts. The game board is an amalgam of New York and Boo York, as the characters move between the two parallel universes. The game variant takes about 3 minutes to set up and 20-30 minutes to play. The pack uses a set of four Peoplebusters, two unique PvP-game-mode Scenarios, four new double-sided tiles, eight PvP Goo Pile Cards, Lady Liberty, and a collection of Ghosts from the new game. The two teams of busters are played by 2-8 players who battle for points that are achieved by containing members of the enemy team or Ghosts or by holding the Trap for extended periods of time. Victory is achieved by taking the Trap to your team's base. New features include critical hits that can instantly contain Ghosts or enemy players and critical misses that can sometimes even damage your own team. Members of your team can rapidly respawn each round. [61] The Mayor will be represented on the map with a Trap token. [62]

On May 28, 2016, Cryptozoic clarified the back side of the Peoplebusters' Player Card will be a Ghost Card. [63]

On June 17, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the dice tower prototype. The final version will be made with a coated stock that will be very sturdy while retaining its collapsible nature.

On June 24, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Peoplebusters sculpts. [67]

On June 30, 2016, Cryptozoic announced they are extending the Pledge Manager to July 8. [68]

On July 15, 2016, Cryptozoic released a preview of Bug-Eye. They recommend to battle Bug-Eye, the Grundel, Ellen Gold, and Killerwatt in that order. The Bug-Eye's third eye gives it an extra line of sight so if a player misses a shot, the team 'may find themselves wandering blind.' [70]

On July 19, 2016, Cryptozoic confirmed its next update would be about the Grundel. [71]

On July 22, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Grundel sculpt and noted it was "Kylie's nightmare" and had "a sinister plan to turn the Ghostbusters against each other." Grundel has the ability to transform any Ghostbuster he Slimes into another Grundel so players most coat the slimed Ghostbuster with positive Mood Slime or he will head for Ecto-1a and free Grundel's allies. When directly battling the Grundel, one Ghostbuster will have to focused only on trapping. [72]

On July 29, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Ellen Gold sculpt. She throws low-level Ghosts at players and are always under attack as she threatens to empty the Spirit World. Cryptozoic will be at Gen Con in Indianapolis August 4-7 at Booth #501. A prototype of the game can be played and chat with Lead Designer Mataio Wilson will be present. [73]

The included Factory Map Tiles will inhibit the player's view of the area, which Killerwatt uses to stalk your characters. Killerwatt can use a player's equipment against him/her. [74]

On August 12, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Ecto-1a sculpt. The Ecto-Tank Ability was further explained. Each Ghostbuster has one that unlocks at certain Levels. At the start of a round, the team can spend Plazm Counters they've deposited into the Ecto-Tank and activate an Ecto-Tank ability. The free ability can be used at any time during that round. 2 Plazm Counters activates Ray'’s Level 1 Ecto-Tank Ability "Each Ghostbuster can remove 1 Slime from an adjacent Ghostbuster for free during their turn." 3 Plazm Counters activates Winston's Level 3 Ecto-Tank Ability: "Each Ghostbuster may make a Move Action for free during their turn." Available Ecto-Tank Abilities can be activated as many times as needed, as long the required Plazm Counters are on hand. [75]

On August 19, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of Garrett Miller's character card and sculpt. Garrett's Level 1 Ability allows him to cross over orange map lines by spending a Maneuver, while the others can only watch from the other side. At Level 3, Garrett gains the ability to speed through the map, as he can spend an Action to move exactly 3 spaces in a straight line. At Level 4, by spending 1 Plazm Counter, Garrett's Ecto-Tank Ability motivates the team to hustle, allowing each Ghostbuster to move 1 space in any legal direction at the beginning of the round. He's also the only Ghostbuster that can enter or exit the Ecto-1a from the 3 back spaces. [76]

On August 26, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of Roland Jackson's character card, ability card, and sculpt. Roland's Level 1 Ability allows him to transfer Equipment to or from a Ghostbuster within Line of Sight. Roland's Level 2 Ability lets him choose an Equipment Card from the top three cards of the deck. Roland's Level 3 Ability affects the Ecto-Tank. The team can spend 4 Plazms so that each Ghostbuster can exchange an unused Equipment Card for a new one. At Level 4, Roland is able to modify the Ecto-1a so that he can control it from across the map with a remote control. [77]

On Septemebr 2, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of Kylie Griffin's character card, ability card, and sculpt. She has a Level 1 Ecto-Tank Ability to send Trapped Ghosts back into the Spirit World. Her Level 2 Ability is to peek at the Event deck, moving the top card to the bottom. Her Level 3 Ability is to name an Equipment type, then keep any of the next 4 cards from the Equipment deck that match the named type. Her Level 4 Ability adds +2 to her Combat Rolls against an Entity's Resist. [78]

On September 9, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of Eduardo Rivera's character card, ability card, and sculpt. Eduardo's Level 1 Ability takes advantage of a play in progress, taking a Combat Action against an Entity that has a Stream or Mood Slime on it. At Level 2, his Ecto-Tank Ability allows all the Ghostbusters to remove 1 of their own Slimes at the start of the round. At Level 4, Eduardo gives another Ghostbuster a bonus to their Combat Roll during their turn. [79]

On September 10, 2016, Cryptozoic confirmed their current estimated fulfillment date is April 2017. [80]

On September 16, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Ecto-2 sculpt. It can fly up to two Ghostbusters over Ghosts and obstacles. The only limitation is a "pretty small tank of gas" so Timer Counters can be used to track how many trips are left. Once onboard, the player can spend an Action to move two Ghostbusters up to 6 spaces in any direction, landing in an unoccupied space. [81]

On September 21, 2016, Cryptozoic hinted the Friday update would feature a Ghostbusters II non-humanoid character. [82] [83]

On September 23, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Giga-Plazm sculpt and Ghost Card. It carries the Manhattan Museum of Art on its back and the key to stopping it is the core, a mass of tormented souls reside. 8 Mood Slimes from 2 different Ghostbusters are required to destroy it but every time a Ghostbuster misses a shot on Giga-Plazm, they are Expelled from it. At the end of each round, the Giga-Plazm slides 1 space toward the nearest Ghostbuster. [84]

On September 28, 2016, Cryptozoic clarified that the Giga-Plazm will have two "shelves" on the back its sculpt that can fit one Ghostbuster each. [85]

On September 30, 2016, Cryptozoic posted a preview of the Werechicken Ghost Card and sculpt. A Class 3, its ability is "Bit a Ghostbuster" which forces a player to Color Mark their Ghostbuster by adding the affected character's unused color Base to his or her Character Card and "infected." As a result, he or she will move two spaces toward the nearest Werechicken whenever an Open Gate is rolled at the end of the round. Once infected, every encounter with the Werechicken will result in the Ghostbuster getting Slimed and gain a -1 Hit Slime Token. To disinfect, the Werechickens have to be trapped. Each requires 2 Mood Slimes then 1 Proton Stream. Cryptozoic also posted updated sculpts of Kylie Griffin and Roland Jackson in response to backer feedback on some erroneous equipment. They will also update the art of Eduardo and Roland. [86]
