Kinetic Games, the developer of the co-op psychological horror game Phasmophobia, has released a new roadmap outlining plans for the game in “2024 in beyond.” However, it has removed all expected launch dates from it with the promise that things will release “as soon as they are ready.”

It noted, however, that since everything is still a work in progress, some things could change “drastically” between now and when they actually release.
Despite the lack of release windows on the roadmap, Kinetic Games confirmed that the first update of 2024 will roll out at some point next week, which will coincide with the removal of the Holiday event. This will include an overhaul to lighting, new Screen Space Global Illumination settings and more.
In future updates after that, players can also look forward to the addition of new tasks, player models and animations, player customization and more. A glimpse of the next new location within the game was also revealed, named Point Hope Lighthouse. The circular location includes a maintenance room, bathroom, and living room to hunt ghosts in.
