Hi, DK! It’s nice to see you answering here personally.

I’d like to ask a question myself. I assume that supporting separate console and PC versions will be almost twice as complicated as adding new stuff just on PC. How are you planing to support new content such as Horror 2.0? Will it come out simultaneously? Will one of the versions be prioritised and the other receive new content later or not at all? There’s also of course VR and all the issues related to it.

Thanks in advance!

Hey, yes it will be more complicated but that is one of the reasons we are hiring more developers. Any new content will release simultaneously on all platforms. Horror 2.0 will definitely be a challenge with PSVR2 certification however we are making plans for this.

Hey! Thanks for making this post, we do really value and appreciate the feedback.

We fully understand that most of these issues are due to us being a small studio, as you have pointed out. We're currently in the process of expanding our team in multiple positions to address these concerns however hiring is not easy and takes time. You can find the positions listed on our website. Interviewing is currently a significant part of our current workload however it is crucial for us to grow.

One of the main positions we are looking for is a community manager. This position is very important to improving our communication with everyone and will solve a lot of issues. We've already interviewed many people for this role and have many more interviews lined up.

Our goal is to release several large updates throughout the year, however with our current team size this isn't possible. Expanding our team is my absolute top priority so that we can bring more frequent and subs...

The Console Update

Hey Ghost Hunters, we've got some news for you, and it's exciting...

Firstly we want to thank our incredibly passionate community for being patient with us while we work on the console update. With last year's estimated release date ultimately being delayed, we shared the frustration with console players and had to make sure that when we announced a new release date, it was one that we could meet.





We are collaborating with Unity to work on the console release, as well as general performance optimisations for both console and PC, this will ensure that the console update runs optimally and to the high standards that we set for the game. Working with them means that we can work alongside them on new content for all platforms, allowing faster development of new updates.

Future updates for the game will be re... Read more

Hey, this seems like an issue with Steam if it's after you updated the game. We have a lot of memory optimisations coming in the Halloween event update however that won't affect how Steam downloads and installs updates.

Hey, the main reason is because of "drug references" which is from the sanity medication. As well as some light use of blood, the ghost kills you and the multiplayer aspects. Without the sanity medication, we would have a lower rating.

  • All equipment will have new visuals
  • Most of the equipment is being rebalanced
  • Most equipment will be upgradeable, adding new gameplay features and visuals
  • Upgrades will only cost money to unlock, each “level” of equipment will cost the same (this means you can still use level 1 camera if you prefer the challenge or visuals)
  • Some equipment will become consumable (similar to sanity pills), upgrades increase “uses” so you have to buy them less (matches > cheap lighter > Zippo)
  • 1 new equipment item will now be used to find extra physical evidence for extra rewards
