Phasmophobia update overhauls VR mode and tweaks hiding spots — full patch notes

Ghost-hunting game Phasmophobia has seen a number of updates since launch, with additions like cursed possessions and new ghost powers. The latest update ups the ante again, especially if you’ve been playing the game in VR.

Developer Kinetic Games calls v0.6.0.0 “the VR update” on Steam, and it certainly is the highlight. “An entirely new VR system has been incorporated into Phasmophobia,” says the studio. The game now supports “all major headsets,” and there are all sorts of new options for controls and comfort. Kinetic Games recommends you readjust your in-game settings if you previously played the game in VR.

Other changes include a big reworking of hiding spots. Players were finding unintended ways to hide from ghosts, so Kinetic Games has tried to “encourage” them to use the designated spots. This means some previous hiding spots are blocked, while other new ones have been added. The higher the difficulty level, the fewer there are.

There are a whole bunch of other changes to the game too, ranging from bug fixes to lighting and sound adjustments. There are also new screens in the truck and new options for voice chat. Check out the complete patch notes below.
