The video game was Ghostbusters 3


As fans stated. Afterlife while technically the third is a spin off/legacy sequel, the video game was the straight sequel fans wanted, it did really well and showed the franchise still had interest.

It’s an amazing video game too! A lot of fun! And so awesome to hear all the original cast’s voices again.

Also showed the fans still wanted another movie. Despite the continuing momentum I think a third movie had to have been made years earlier to create a sufficiently large franchise.

Afterlife can be viewed as the fourth movie.

Movies override everything. Comics, books, games, and other "expanded universe stuff" are negated when movies come into play.
