PHASMOPHOBIA UNVEILS 2025 ROADMAP, SURPASSES 2M SALES ON CONSOLE

Thrive (and try to stay alive) in 2025 with major reworks, new equipment and a menacing new map as the definitive horror games surpasses 2 million sales on console, and 22 million across all platforms!

LONDON, UK – February 10th, 2025 – Today, Kinetic Games has unveiled the 2025 roadmap for Phasmophobia, revealing some of the spine-chilling additions and changes coming to the hit co-op horror game this year. Major reworks, fresh ghost-hunting tools, and thrilling seasonal events are all on the horizon - as well as a sinister new map that might just be the last straw for those with a weak constitution…

The roadmap reveal arrives as the Phasmophobia continues to bewitch audiences as it surpasses 2 million copies sold on console in just over three months after its launch in late October. Phasmophobia has remained in the PS5 top seller list since, and has also been recognised in the 2024 Xbox Excellence Awards as one of the platform’s top selling titles. Since its early access debut, it has now surpassed 22 million sales across all platforms.

The first major update coming to the definitive horror game is Chronicle, which will bring changes to the journal and rework the way in which Ghost Hunters can capture evidence. The Photos tab will be replaced with a Media tab featuring three new sections - Photos, Videos and Sound Recordings - with any photographic, audio or visual evidence logged in the corresponding pages.

The game’s media quality system is being replaced too, with a players’ first “capture” of any media type labelled as “Unique”. These will reward lots of cash and XP at the end of a contract, while “duplicates” will reward much less.

Chronicle will also introduce the Sound Recorder, a brand new piece of equipment designed to record unique paranormal sounds. Players brave enough to do so will be able to listen back to their recordings in the updated journal, letting them discover helpful clues that may previously have been drowned out by terrified screams.

Outdoorsy hunters will be pleased to know there are two map reworks on the way this year: Bleasdale Farmhouse will receive a complete overhaul, with visual enhancements and a complete redesign of the layout, including new locations for ghosts to haunt. Players will be able to explore a garden just outside the main living room, complete with ghost rooms, as well as revamped areas to explore. Grafton Farmhouse will also receive an update later this year.

There’s even more to come, with a player character overhaul, new small map, and updates for the Easter, Halloween and Holiday seasons set to arrive in 2025. Plans for 2026 are already underway too, with house map reworks, even more new maps, and Horror 2.0 in the works.

“We’re beyond excited for the new updates and reworks coming to Phasmophobia this year,” said Daniel Knight (Dknighter), Director of Kinetic Games and Lead Developer of Phasmophobia. “Our early access period so far has given us a fantastic opportunity to listen to our players, and the big changes we’re making are a direct reflection of the feedback we’re seeing. We're really proud of the direction Phasmophobia is going in, thanks in no small part to our amazing community, and we can’t wait to see what everyone thinks of some of the surprises in store for 2025.”

Phasmophobia is available on PC via Steam, PS5, PS VR2 and Xbox Series X|S priced at $19.99/£16.75/€19.50.
