Challenges:
Challenges themselves are nothing new to the speedrunning scene – but our developers have been hard at work recently building out a feature to officially support Challenges on Speedrun.com! Currently, these challenges are created internally, but our long-term aim is to enable Speedrun.com users to create their challenges, with or without prize pools. A Challenge leaderboard functions similarly to the regular leaderboards you’re already familiar with. However, we’ve made a few layout adjustments to cater to the time-sensitive nature of challenges and the inclusion of prize pools.

We are aiming to avoid any undue pressure on the Ghostrunner 2 moderation team – so to ensure a smooth process, all runs submitted to the challenge leaderboard will be screened and verified by either SRC staff or Ghostrunner 2 moderation team members volunteering for the challenge specifically. After the challenge concludes, SRC staff will collaborate with the Ghostrunner 2 moderation team to discuss the potential merging of challenge runs into the regular leaderboard once the moratorium period expires, respecting the mod team’s preferences

Preparation Suggestions:
To follow the challenge and find tips & tricks for the speedrun, visit the Ghostrunner 2 Challenge leaderboard right here on Speedrun.com and the GRSR Discord server.

Some Advice:
The challenge lasts for two weeks, which may sound short, but it’s ample time. I recommend taking your time for your first playthrough, focusing on learning the game’s movement and practicing sections before diving into full runs. The fiercest competition for the top three spots typically emerges in the final week or even the last few days of the challenge, so there’s really no need to rush through your initial playthrough.

Good luck, and have fun Ghostrunners!️

10 Interesting Things to Know About Ghostrunner 2

Greetings, Ghostrunners! With the buzzing anticipation around Ghostrunner 2, we wanted to give you a sneak peek into some fascinating insights about the game. Whether you’re a returning fan or new to the series, these tidbits will surely pique your interest and prepare you for the thrilling adventure ahead!

1) Augmented Abilities: While the foundational skills remain, Ghostrunner 2 introduces an array of new abilities for players to harness. These can be mixed and matched, allowing for a tailored gameplay style. From cloaking techniques to devastating ultimate attacks, mastering these new powers can be the difference between survival and defeat.

2) Deflection over Defense: Your blocking is only as good as the direction you’re facing and it consumes stamina. However, deflections, when timed precisely, not only save stamina but can turn the tide in heated confrontations, especially against certain foes. Precisely-timed attacks allow you to deflect bullets, sparing your stamina while ensuring your safety.

3) Master the Parry: Those menacing enemies with AoE attacks aren’t as intimidating as they seem! Sharpen your reflexes, and you can parry their lunges. It’s all about mastering that timing.

4) Stay Agile, Stay Alive: Your movements can be your best defense. Enemies aim at your last location. Use slides, dashes, and jumps creatively. For example, mech waves can be manipulated based on your movement patterns.

5) Versatile Combat Approaches: Every battle offers multiple strategies to reach victory. Experiment with various approaches, abilities, and angles. The game rewards creativity and resilience, so if one tactic doesn’t work, another just might.

6) Dive into the Lore: Ghostrunner 2 expands on its rich backstory. Take your time to delve deeper into its universe; it’s an enthralling journey. The world of Ghostrunner 2 is vast and ripe for exploration. Players will find themselves traversing not just horizontally but also vertically, uncovering hidden areas, shortcuts, and lore-filled pockets. Each corner holds potential secrets, making exploration as rewarding as it is challenging.

7) In-Game Navigation Assist: Struggling to locate adversaries? Your HUD is your guide, pointing you towards remaining enemies and alerting you with bright red indicators during incoming attacks.

8) Admire Your Achievements: After conquering a mission, your armory and unique collectibles can be showcased, reflecting your progress and accomplishments. This is also an opportunity to adjust your upgrades in our new progression system.

9) Shurikens, Your Lethal Ally: More than just a ranged weapon, shurikens can disrupt shields and incapacitate stronger adversaries. Use them wisely to tilt battles in your favor.

10) Community Challenges: Tapping into the competitive spirit, Ghostrunner 2 introduces periodic community challenges where players worldwide can participate and showcase their skills to win prizes. Whether it’s speedrunning or creating Ghostrunner 2 art, these events bring the community together and offer exclusive rewards for top performers.
