Phasmophobia's console release gets delayed again
The co-op horror game Phasmophobia will not release on consoles this month, following another delay.
Phasmophobia was originally meant to release into early access on console in August, but an office fire incident in August caused developer Kinect Games to push launch back to October.
The release date is being pushed back again, meaning Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 owners will have to wait a little bit longer to join the ghost-hunting. In a developer update posted to Steam, Kinect Games attributed the latest delay to August’s fire incident and issues in porting the game to consoles and VR.
“As we still try to adapt to our new remote working life after the fire incident and to establish a new office, we’ve encountered unforeseen challenges in adapting the game for consoles,” Kinect Games said. Further setbacks were caused by a rework of the game’s Maple Lodge Campsite map to improve performance on PSVR2, the studio added.
