Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime screens are haunted by an evil subway car
Beyond the requisite winged atrocities, demons and a possessed subway car, these new Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime screenshots feature plenty of fireworks displays, courtesy of the new gang's overactive proton packs. And, hey, it looks like you can totally cross the streams now!

Good evening, this is Joystiq. Today, the entire Eastern Seaboard is alive with talk of a new Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime trailer. Alleged trailer sightings and related supernatural occurances have been reported just past the break.

See Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime in action
Riding on the slimey coattails of last week's announcement, Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime received the full media push this morning, with a handful of screens and a debut gameplay trailer (found after the break). Alongside receiving assets, we learned that the Behavior-developed game will follow a team of rookie ghostbusters "on a brand new paranormal experience" in New York City. As teased in the trailer by a giant, sentient subway line, players will take down ectoplasm-filled enemies and "gigantic bosses" with several characteristic ghostbustin' weapons (insert "don't cross the streams!" joke here). It seems the old ghostbusters -- and the actors that voice them -- will be sitting this one out. We reached out to Slimer's representation for more information, and will update this post if we hear anything back. Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime should arrive on XBLA, PSN, and PC "this Spring."%Gallery-109442%
Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime slathered on XBLA, PSN and PC next Spring
Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime will be a downloadable follow-up to 2009's Ghostbusters: The Video Game, 'cause Gozer knows publisher Atari can barely afford a full-cost sequel. Being developed by Assault Heroes creator Wanako (now named Behavior Studios), the four-player (online and couch co-op) top-down action game will not feature any voice work by the original Ghostbusters like Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd. It's still unclear whether their characters even appear, or if they've been replaced by a new team of specter hunters. Sanctum of Slime, to be released in the Spring of 2011 on XBLA, PSN and PC, will have players taking the role of "the rookie," who was introduced in the 2009 game. We don't have more details beyond what little information and screens were given to USA Today, so let's just cross our streams and hope for the best.
