Big changes are on the way to ghost hunting sim, Phasmophobia, including a full progression wipe in order to usher in a new levelling system.
In a Steam update earlier this week, Kinetic Games outlined what was ahead for intrepid ghosthunters when V8.1 “and onwards” roll out later this year, including new difficulties, challenge mode, and a shop update.
Noting that any and all information remains a work in progress and is subject to change at any time, Kinetic confirmed that “progress part 1; V9.0” will be the next “major” update, coming “shortly” after v.8.1 rolls out.
Acknowledging that the team has seen “a lot of players’ concerns about why we’re doing a wipe and what will happen to their current progression”, Kinetic said “the wipe is needed to make way for the new levelling system, including prestiges, and will fundamentally change how you progress through the game”.
