Ghost Rider is a third person game based around the movie of the same name. The game is a sequel to the movie, in which players can play as Ghost Rider both on foot, or on the Hellcycle. The villains are both from the movie and the comic. Such villains are Scarecrow, Vengeance and Blackheart.

The game features a system reminicent to that of God of War, even having some of the same controls and style of attacks^[1]. Combos are done with bare hands and with the Demonic chain. When on the Hellcycle, Ghost Rider is still capable of performing many of the same chain attacks, and can shoot hellfire.

The Game Boy Advance version has some elements of Road Rash and Castlevania.
