PhasmophobiaThe very popular Koop Ghost hunting game has come up on Twitch since at least 2020, and the developers' Kinetic Games said on Monday that it had previously sold more than 22 million copies. In 2025, the team had a stem-packed development roadmap, including plans for an updated look for its known inconspicuous character models for players. We know the following about the updates and upgrades that are intended for later this year, which were detailed on Monday A press release.
The first big update for Phasmaphobia This year the Chronicle update is called and was previously described in detail A developer blog contribution. Kinetic says it will revise how players collect evidence – things such as spectral temperature fluctuations and uncanny noises that are now archived for the first time. For this purpose, the Chronicle update replaces the “Photos” tab with a media tab. It should be particularly practical if one of her friends in the middle of a particularly hectic haunt was busy hunting, arguing or having to panic in other ways.
Developers said that data acquisition would also give more nuances. The first recording of a media type is marked as unique and is delivered with great rewards at the end of a contract. Duplicated media pieces rewarded much less, which encourages players to try different tools to create a wide portfolio of different evidence.
At some point after the Chronicle update comes the overhaul of the player character. At the moment, players can only select one A handful of avatarsNone of them have a lot of personality. The roadmap shows a figure that carries different shirts, which could mean that players can adapt their threads and exchange outfits between contracts. It would be a welcome change in the current status quo, in which all simple button-down shirts and other simple, reasonable, unforgettable clothing wear.
Later in the year, Kinetic also said that it would publish a brand new card. It will be small, they said: “Similar to the houses” that already exist in the game. Additional changes are made on the existing cards. The Bleasdale and Grafton farmers in particular receive important updates, revise the layout and create new rooms for spirits. There are also public holidays for Easter and Halloween, and even around 2026 features, including one as “horror 2.0” that certainly arouses my interest.
