Phasmophobia 2025 Roadmap: Upcoming Updates You Can’t Miss

Phasmophobia 2025 Roadmap: Upcoming Updates You Can't Miss

Phasmophobia continues to captivate players as it evolves, especially since this popular ghost hunting game is still in early access. With regular updates rolling out every few months, excitement is always in the air. If you’re curious about what’s on the horizon, the roadmap provides essential insights into upcoming content.

This year has already treated Phasmophobia fans to an array of thrilling additions, but there’s more to anticipate. Below is a concise overview of the late 2025 roadmap for Phasmophobia, highlighting everything you can expect to see before the year’s end.

The Phasmophobia Roadmap

The official roadmap, along with various developer blog updates, reveals that two significant updates are still in the pipeline for 2025: the Nell’s Diner update and the player character overhaul update.

Nell’s Diner Update

Prepare for the Nell’s Diner update, which introduces a new, compact map akin to 13 Willow Street. As the title suggests, this small American diner boasts 13 rooms, with 11 of them serving as potential favorite haunts for ghosts.

According to the 20th developer blog, the diner includes various areas, such as a parking lot complete with a police car, a back exit leading to a dumpster, kitchen facilities, bathrooms, an office, and the main dining area.

This update embraces “environmental storytelling,” aiming to convey the eerie narrative of an unsettling event that left the diner abruptly abandoned, with uneaten food still scattered around. This lore could potentially lay the groundwork for an official Phasmophobia movie in the future.

Player Character Overhaul Update

The player character overhaul update is poised to transform your in-game character with a complete redesign and an array of new customization options. Players can expect to fully dress their characters, with some cosmetics already teased for future Twitch drops. However, whether you will also have the ability to alter hair and eye color is still uncertain.

The 2025 roadmap blog indicates that this update aims to enhance character models, refine animations, and improve the overall player experience in Phasmophobia.
