Phasmophobia’s latest update means ghosts can open doors and follow your voice when they search for you • Eurogamer.net

“This update now puts the game in a much more stable state.”

Kinetic Games, developer of indie-smash horror Phasmophobia, has introduced a series of changes to the ghost game, including a new feature for accessibility and quality of life improvement.

“Over the past few months, there has been a beta branch with regular experimental updates,” the developer said in an update shared over the weekend. “With these updates, the game has been fixed, optimized and changed in various ways to improve the game for everyone.

“Some of these changes are very important, but these changes are being made to improve the overall gaming experience. This update now puts the game in a much more stable state, allowing new content to launch.”

The new accessibility page allows players to swap audio for mono for hard of hearing / hearing impaired players, while a new button for the contract issue ensures that it will no longer be random.

The ghost AI has also been customized. They can now follow you around a corner and listen to the player’s voices while hunting, as well as open doors, cupboards and lockers while hunting, which sounds awfully brilliant.

Kinetic Games recently announced that it is reconsidering its development plans – which initially only required a short early access period – due to the game’s great success.

Fasmophobia is now available in Steam early access, and you can get a taste of the regularly terrifying actions, thanks to Eurogamer’s fearless video crew.
