Since its launch in Early Access in 2020, Phasmophobia has sold over 30 million copies across PC and console platforms. The game's developer, Kinetic Games, announced this milestone alongside the return of its annual Halloween event, Crimson Eye. Running until November 1st, Crimson Eye introduces blood moon weather to rotating maps, making ghosts faster and increasing sanity drain while paying out more rewards.
Maps featured include Tanglewood Drive, Camp Woodwind, Grafton Farmhouse, Bleasdale Farmhouse, Point Hope, Edgefield Road, Nell's Diner, and Willow Street. Completing community goals unlocks exclusive items, while personal goals grant additional rewards such as a seasonal t-shirt and upgrades to the Crimson Eye trophy. Fans can also earn a Crimson Eye t-shirt cosmetic and double XP and rewards by watching two hours of Phasmophobia streams on Twitch between October 8th and 15th.
The event includes Ghost Hunts 4 Hearts, a special initiative supporting the American Heart Association, running from October 26th to November 1st. Kinetic Games CEO Daniel Knight expressed gratitude for the game's success and shared that the studio is working on a major update, 1.0, for the second half of 2027, which will include significant changes to ghost design and gameplay.
The company also launched a publishing arm, Kinetic Publishing, this year, with its first release, Contact Protocol, set to debut in Spring 2027. Phasmophobia is currently available on Early Access for Steam, PS5, PS VR2, and Xbox Series X/S, and is set to launch on Nintendo Switch 2 at a later date.
