Phasmophobia Update 1.000.026 Applies Hotfix for Crimson Eye
Last week, Kinetic Games launched the Crimson Eye event in Phasmophobia, which saw the game’s Halloween event introduced. If you noticed a bug or two that came along for the ride, you’re not alone.
Kinectic is aware of this and has pushed out Phasmophobia update 1.000.026 on consoles and PC.
Read on for the short list of changes made today.
Phasmophobia’s Update on Oct. 16 Brings Fixes via Patch 1.000.026
Fixes
- Fixed players getting stuck on “Connecting” screen when joining lobbies via friend invite.
- Removed a pop-up message when unlocking the Child of the Cult foil badge.
- Main menu radio will now play spooky sounds.
- Fixed an issue with CCTV which was causing reduced performance until focusing on the CCTV.
If you weren’t able to log in last week, here’s what to expect from the event:
- Crimson Eye: Phasmophobia’s Halloween event returns for another round. Throughout this event, players will be able to earn extra rewards and work together to complete challenges. For more details, head to our blogpost.
- Moon Altars: A change to these means that they will now appear as ‘Usable’ in game, and once interacted with will disappear. Remember to take a photo before interacting with an Altar, it’ll count as a Unique piece of Media!
- While the event Trophy remains the same as the 2024 event’s, it is now upgradeable upon completing Personal Goals. The Crimson Eye trophy can be upgraded up to three times during the event, and progression will carry through to the next Crimson Eye event.
- We have added leaderboard support for in-game events to the PS5, PS VR2 and Xbox Series X/S versions of Phasmophobia.
For the complete list of changes, head on over to the patch notes.
