2025 Preparedness for Phasmophobia: Easter, Halloween, and seasonal spooks
In the thrilling world of Phasmophobia, players can look forward to a series of exciting updates and seasonal events this year and beyond, as announced by the game's developers.
The upcoming seasonal events are shaping up to be particularly terrifying, with special events planned for Halloween and the holiday season. The exact dates for these events have not been revealed yet, but players can expect a chilling experience during these festive periods[1].
One of the major updates planned for 2025 is the "Player Character Overhaul" (Progression 2.0), which is expected to be a significant overhaul of the game's mechanics. Additionally, the Grafton Farmhouse map is set for a rework, and a new small map will be introduced later in the year[1][4].
Recent updates in July 2025 included new recordable evidence mechanics and various quality-of-life improvements[3][4]. The full 1.0 version and Horror 2.0 patch are scheduled for release in 2026, marking the official "complete" version of the game. However, updates including new maps and content will continue even after that[1].
Meanwhile, Andrea Shearon, a gaming enthusiast with a soft spot for older RPGs and a love for co-op horror games, has been covering games for nearly a decade. She often has a few survival-crafting games on rotation, and her weekly to-do always includes a bit of MMO time, endlessly achievement hunting and raiding in Final Fantasy 14.
In related news, the Phasmophobia team is planning an event titled "Winter's Jest" for the Holiday season 2024, and another event titled "Crimson Eye" for Halloween 2024. The Holiday event is scheduled for mid-December[2].
For those interested, Phasmophobia Twitch Drops can be obtained by connecting your Twitch account through the in-game menu. To get the special ID card and badge, you need to watch two hours of Phasmophobia streams on Twitch between June 24 to July 15[3].
The Phasmophobia event calendar includes the Easter, Halloween, Holiday, and potential other events. The Cursed Hollow event took place from April 17 to May 7, and the Phasmophobia Chronicle update launched on Tuesday, June 24, 2025[3].
As always, the Phasmophobia team is keeping a close eye on any signs from the Blood Moon cult regarding the next event release date[4]. The team's vigilance is rewarded, as the next seasonal event should bring back the Blood Moon Cult sometime in October[5].
Stay tuned for more updates on Phasmophobia's exciting journey!
