A 13-year-old glitch found in Ghostbusters: The Video Game has finally been fixed!

In 2009, Atari published the critically acclaimed Ghostbusters: The Video Game, instantly becoming a favorite amongst fans and serving as the final project that stars Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, and the late Harold Ramis would collectively work on.

The game would wind up reaching a new generation of fans, seeing a rerelease 2019 under the title, Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered, and would boast several performance upgrades, taking advantage of new video game hardware. Despite this, a weird bug found in the original release would reemerge, somehow managing to be overlooked.

In the game, when using the unlockable Ghostbusters II uniform, the logo patch on the right arm wouldn’t appear correctly, with the sequels logo being covered by the original no-ghost design.

While this clearly wasn’t a game-breaking issue, it was well documented within the community, and it was surprising that Mad Dog Games, the company behind the remaster, wouldn’t address the minor bug.



While not fixed in an official capacity, a user-made patch was just released by Nexus Mods user sakis720, correcting the logo glitch for the playable Rookie character. Not only that, but it also suits Peter, Ray, Winston, and Egon with the charcoal grey uniforms and the gold proton pack with the game’s campaign.

If you’d like to give the mod a download, it’s available here and will work on the PC release of Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered.
