‘Phasmophobia’ “Eventide” Update Now Available, Console Release Progress Coming Soon
That march to a long-awaited console release is still going, but in the meantime, Kinetic Games has released a major update for Phasmophobia with Eventide. The v0.10.0.0 release (despite the noted discrepancy with the game’s roadmap) adds a new location with Point Hope, as well as changes to several progression and equipment items, fixes and more.
Unlocking at level 15, Point Hope is a lighthouse that is described as being recently refurbished, featuring 10 floors, 12 rooms, and a “unique layout which will challenge players in new ways.” As a result, players will have to utilize a few different techniques while playing on lower-evidence game modes.
Player levelling and rewards have also been adjusted, based on community feedback. Leveling is now faster, thanks to a reduced requirement for EXP for each level. Players can now level up to 9999 for each prestige, with the required experience needed to level up between 999 and 9999 increasing at every level.
And for those who love their I.D. card badges, you can now unlock four addition badges based on fulfilling requirements with Point Hope. Players can also now carry an Igniter in addition to 3 other items.
As is the usual, the new Eventide update also carries various fixes and tweaks to the gameplay, as well as optimization for Phasmophobia. You can check out the full list of changes here.
Meanwhile, in regards to the console release, Kinetic Games is “working to meet the high standards” they’ve set for the release, but haven’t given an updated timeframe as of yet. “While we understand that delays can be disappointing, we believe that the wait will be worth it. Our goal is to ensure that the console release delivers the best possible experience at release.”
The team plans to share more information on the development and plans for the console releases within the next few weeks.
Currently, Phasmophobia is on Steam, with planned releases on Xbox Series, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation VR2.

With two weeks to go until its launch, Project Cloud Games and Perp Games have given players a slice of the punishing and relentless bosses known as Brutals that players will face off against in The Relic: First Guardian. With fast-paced combat, 80 Brutals stand in your way of restoring the once peaceful land of Arsilthus to its glory.
Also featured in the trailer are glimpses of the many weapons and armour sets ready to be discovered in the game’s semi-open world, with plenty of lore attached to each piece you discover. Coupled with passive effects picked up along the way, these skill and weapon combos will directly alter your combat style to fit your flow.
The Relic: First Guardian takes place on the fictitious continent of Arsiltus. You are the First Guardian, charged with embarking on a heroic adventure to save the world. The once-prosperous Arsiltus was swallowed up by the void created by the destruction of the great relic and transformed into the land of death. Now your mission is to find the pieces of the broken great relic and close the void.
Look for The Relic: First Guardian on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam on July 31, while versions for the Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch 2 are expected later this year. Digital pre-orders are open now on PlayStation 5, where you can pick up the game ahead of its launch and claim The Night of Unextinguished Flame bonus pack at no extra cost. This exclusive day-one bundle equips you for the trials ahead with an additional brutal dungeon to conquer, a unique relic, and a legendary exclusive weapon and armour set.
