Ghostbusters to return to consoles in downloadable game

Hot on the heels of Dan Akroyd and Harold Ramis letting it slip that “Ghostbusters 3” is actually going to happen sometime, I see info this morning that the spectre-busting group will be getting the video game treatment again.

“Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime,” a follow-up to the 2009 “Ghostbusters: The Video Game” by Atari, will be a four play co-op (online and offline), top down downloadable action title. Though it’s known that none of the original Ghostbusters (Bill Murray, Aykroyd or Ramis) will be doing voice work for the game, it’s still unclear whether the game will feature the titular characters or a new group.

Aside from its anticipated spring 2011 release, that’s all the info I have for now.
