Phasmophobia Updates and Events: 2026 Guides

By · Last reviewed · Checked on version 0.19.1.0

Key points

  • Four guides that track what Kinetic Games has announced: patch notes, the roadmap, Crimson Eye 2026, and events with Twitch Drops.
  • Latest patch: v0.19.1.0 on October 7, 2026. Next major update: Unity 6, scheduled for November.
  • Crimson Eye is announced for October 8 to November 1, 2026, with Double XP from October 15 to 22.
  • Dates on these pages are the developer's own; where the Steam post and the official site disagree, the page says so.

This section follows Phasmophobia as it changes. Kinetic Games posts patch notes and announcements on Steam and on its own site, sometimes with slightly different wording or dates, and the roadmap was rewritten halfway through 2026. These four guides put that record in order and keep the developer's exact words where a detail matters.

How to read dates on these pages

Three kinds of date show up, and they are not interchangeable.

  • Announced dates are the developer's stated plan, such as the Crimson Eye window. We write "announced for" until there is a post confirming it happened.
  • Steam post dates are the UTC timestamps on the official Steam announcements. We use them for every patch in the timeline.
  • Official site dates come from the news list on kineticgames.co.uk. They sometimes sit a day or more away from the Steam timestamp for the same post, and we mention it when they do.

The same care applies to wording. The Steam post and the site version of an announcement are usually identical, but not always: the Crimson Eye announcement gained an edit on the site moving its patch from October 6 to October 7, and the December 2025 notes list three new ghost types on the site that the Steam version leaves out.

What this section does not do

It does not predict. If the developer has not dated something, the page says "not announced". It also does not cover data-mined or leaked content, test branch builds or anything from community Discord servers. If you are new and want the fundamentals first, start in Getting Started.

Scope

Everything here was read on October 10, 2026 from the official Steam announcement feed for app 739630 and from kineticgames.co.uk. Schedules can change after that date; the roadmap graphics themselves are marked subject to change. This hub is unofficial and not affiliated with Kinetic Games.
