Welcome back! We've got an update for you.



Firstly we'd like to apologize. In our haste to remove money and XP farmers from the game, we penalized our Custom Difficulty goers way too harshly and bypassed the core concept of what custom was originally advertised as "Play your way".

In the long term, we will be rebalancing the entirety of Custom Difficulty's reward multipliers, to make sure that they are fairer, not overly rewarding when lower risk is taken, and stop cheesy tactics to farm easy rewards.

Today, we're removing the -60% reduction for Custom games, and adding the following until the rebalancing is finalized, early next year with 0.8.1:
  • Custom Reward Multipliers will now have a maximum cap of x15, displayed with the actual multiplier beside it in brackets.

We’ve made the decision to increase the rewards for custom difficulty by changing the reward reduction from 80% to 60%. We have plans to add harder official difficulties in future content updates to help balance the game progression.

We are aware of a bug causing the Holiday trophy to not be obtainable. We are looking into this however for now you will need to use a VPN. This is a top priority for us and we hope to have this fixed as soon as possible.


  • Added support for HTC Vive Focus 3 Controllers
  • All doors in Sunny Meadows now have hands in VR when grabbed
  • Added a Christmas tree to the lobby

Welcome back, we’ve got an update for you.

With all of the recent paranormal interference, the weather around certain locations has become more hazardous and intense! Ghosts have been haunting locations longer and longer each night, with some disappearing just before the sun comes up. Will you brave these new conditions?

With this update comes a host of small features, improvements, and options! Additionally, there will also be another larger update in the near future (8.1) to add more features and surprises!

If you are currently forcing DirectX10, please disable it as that will possibly cause issues and crashes!


From now until Early January, you can take part in the Phasmophobia 2022 Holiday event!
  • Earn yourself a Unique Holiday Trophy for your collection as well as an exc...

Welcome back ghost hunters, we've got some news for you.

The 0.8.0.0 URP update is well under way and will soon enter beta testing. The update will be a major graphics overhaul and will improve the performance across all hardware, especially for the CPU.

Until then we will be releasing bug fix patches if there are any major bugs found so please keep reporting them.

The patch notes for this update are below. This includes a major change to how the save file was being backed up which should completely fix the issue where you needed to contact us for a new save file if your save file corrupted then reset.


  • Added a cloud backup for save files. If your save file corrupts it will now revert to this instead of a local file backup
