The Art of Play website gives us the following description on The Phantom Official Game:
Art Of Play is excited to announce the first official licensed game for The Ghost Who Walks: The Phantom since the Super Nintendo in 1995! The Phantom will be a completely hand drawn and painted 2D side scrolling action beat-em-up launching in 2024!

The team at Chronicle Chamber have announced that they’ll be speaking with the games Project Director via a podcast due for release over the next week. Keep an eye out on their website HERE, which I’m sure will shed further light on the The Phantom Official Game.
The Phantom Official Game looks like an amazing project, and congratulations must be extended to both King Features Syndicate and Art of Play for coming together and producing a product which will expose the character to an audience which may of not of heard of the Phantom. The platforms The Phantom Official Game is set to be featured on will certainly bring awareness to the character, and hopefully introduce a little intrigue and curiosity amongst players to further explore the Phantom and his fascinating world.
Lets hope the momentum continue by King Features Syndicate!!!
