Phasmophobia is a horror game developed and published by the British indie studio Kinetic Games. Drawing inspiration from the world of ghost hunting, this immersive experience, available in early access through Steam for Microsoft Windows since September 2020, delivers a nerve-wracking journey into the unknown. But is it coming out on Game Pass?
Here’s all you need to know about whether or not Phasmophobia is coming to PC and Xbox Game Pass.
Is Phasmophobia on Xbox Game Pass?
No, Phasmophobia is not coming out on Xbox Game Pass.
The game came out in 2020 only for PC in early access. Recently, an announcement was made for an early access console release on June 13, 2023. However, the console release has now been delayed for an indefinite amount of time. Hence, we will not be seeing Phasmophobia coming out on Xbox Game Pass anytime soon.
Is Phasmophobia on PC Game Pass?
No, Phasmophobia is not coming out on PC Game Pass.
Phasmophobia got an early access release for PC in 2020. While the game is still in early access, it is expected to get a full release with version 1.0 sometime in 2024. Hence, players should not expect the game to come to PC Game Pass anytime soon. Also, the developer of the game, Kinetic Games, is an independent developer. Indie developers usually focus more on direct sales rather than listing their game on a subscription.
Can you play Phasmophobia via Game Pass?
Unfortunately, you cannot play Phasmophobia via Xbox or PC Game Pass. This is because the game is still in early access for PC and will take quite some time to also get a console release. In the middle of all this, getting a Game Pass release seems highly unlikely. Players can, however, play the game on PC by purchasing it on Steam.
The game’s description reads:
“Phasmophobia is a 4 player online co-op psychological horror where you and your team members of paranormal investigators will enter haunted locations filled with paranormal activity and gather as much evidence of the paranormal as you can. You will use your ghost hunting equipment to search for and record evidence of whatever ghost is haunting the location to sell onto a ghost removal team.
You can choose to support your team by monitoring the location with CCTV cameras and motion sensors from the safety of the truck or head inside and get your hands dirty with the ghostly activity that will get increasingly hostile as time goes on”
