The good folks at UK-based Ripstone Publishing have teamed up with indie devs Golden Ruby Games to bring the paranormal platformer and spooky party game Extreme Exorcism to the Wii U eShop later this year.
Not for the faint hearted, Extreme Exorcism is an arena platformer where every move you make comes back to haunt you. Taking on the role of exorcist Mae Barrons you are called upon to rid a haunted house of its ghostly presence.
Mae's methods are a little extreme, but she's not dealing with your average poltergeists. She's armed with a lethal arsenal of over 20 ghost-busting weapons including; swords, guns, grenades, mines, rocket launchers, razor-sharp boomerangs, lightning spells and Kung-Fu moves, and more.
Each time a ghost is eliminated, another will appear to mimic your every move, encouraging you to tread carefully. In Extreme Exorcism you're your own worst enemy; the longer you survive, the more extreme the game becomes.
With 50 challenges, a single player story mode and local multiplayer with up to 4 players, including both co-op and deathmatch modes – there's plenty on offer for any potential ghost hunters when it arrives on the Wii U eShop later this year. Players can also look forward to customising games and creating their own rule sets to encourage even more extreme gameplay.
Take a look at the spooktacular trailer below. Has Extreme Exorcism got the wings on your P.K.E. Meter twitching?

That's a fairly original approach to the "mimic your moves" idea. I'll keep my eyes on this!
Misleading title. I thought a game based on the movie Exorcist is coming.
I'm shaking
The constant zooming in and out of the trailer was certainly unsettling anyway. Hope that is just a terrible trailer idea and not how the game plays.
I'm not usually a fan of those high-score-chasing, arcade-like games, but I have to admit this seems pretty nifty. I'll wait for reviews, but it's certainly on my radar.
@Nintendian Exorcism was a thing before the film The Exorcist. Extreme Exorcism is not at all misleading. That's like saying Need for Speed is misleading as it's not a tie in to the film Speed.
Anyway, interesting concept with a nice style to it. One for the watch list for sure
Now THIS looks like a fun game!
there are WAY to many of these pixelated indie games, Where has all the effort gone!
I read the title as "Extreme Eroticism is Creeping Onto the Wii U eShop Soon" and boy that was different sort of sensation.

This being said, I still look for new ways to 'play' Speed. It's stupid, but every time I watch it, I just want to jump on GTA and run a bus off the road with a sticky bomb on the belly.
