Phasmophobia hit it big back in 2020 when the game was released in Early Access, launching to near immediate success. In the years since, the team at Kinetic Games have continued to work diligently on the game, improving it across the board. Unfortunately, the game’s long-anticipated console release has been delayed multiple times. Finally however, we appear to have a solid release window.
Making the announcement via their Steam page, the Phasmophobia team at Kinetic Games offered a much-needed update on the current status of the game’s console release, saying:
“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 released on all platforms simultaneously to ensure that cross-play is always available.”
With that, the team revealed that the console version will be coming out later this year “during our in-game Halloween Event”. Additionally, once the game is finally out on consoles, it should have full feature parity, including simultaneous updates with the PC version for all future patches.
As mentioned, Phasmophobia’s console release was delayed multiple times: first due to an office fire then due to various unforeseen circumstances. It’ll be a nice moment when the console version does finally come out, both for the players and Kinetic Games themselves.
