Previously, a major update 1.0 was released that added quality of life improvements and fixes. Recently, a hotfix was also released with VR fixes.

Since the last patch, players are facing a number of problems with the game. Today’s Phasmophobia update 0.6.2.0 will fix a few of these issues.

Check out more details below.

Phasmophobia Patch 0.6.2 Notes – June 10, 2022

Ghost Types

We’ve had reports of three new entities haunting several locations, more information is available in the Journal:

  • Deogen
    Always watching
  • Moroi
    Risen from the grave to curse their victims
  • Thaye
    The ever-aging ghost
  • These three ghosts will have an increased chance to spawn for 2 weeks

We’re introducing “The Investigation Period” along with these new ghost types!

This gives players around two weeks to try and work out the ghosts’ abilities, traits and secrets before we update these patch notes with the specifics (spoilered of course). We’re hoping this will bring back the original investigator feeling and allow players to work together, as a team, to uncover the truth!

Voice Recognition

Our Voice recognition system has been completely replaced!

We are no longer relying on Windows’ speech systems, meaning it supports many more languages and platforms, such as ‘GeForce Now’ and Steam Deck, with no setup required (and fixes that pesky tab-out bug).

  • You now only need to set your microphone in-game, instead of your ‘Windows Default Microphone’
  • You can now see the input volume of your microphone in the Audio Settings
  • Additional microphone input options have been added:
    • Voice Detector Sensitivity
    • Noise Suppression
  • Due to the new system only working if you are in a server, the voice recognition test has been removed.

Note: The above additional Audio options are only available while in-game, through the Journal’s Options menu

Currently supported languages:

  • English
  • German
  • French
  • Russian
  • Spanish
  • Japanese
  • Simplified Chinese
  • Traditional Chinese
  • Italian
  • Portuguese
  • Brazilian Portuguese
  • Dutch
  • Swedish
  • Turkish
  • Ukrainian
  • Czech
  • Greek
  • More languages will be added in a future update

New

  • The Truck has received new models, a new layout, and materials
  • Equipment is now placed on the wall in the Truck
    Placing any equipment back on the wall, similarly to head cameras, will be added with the ‘Custom Difficulty’ update
  • When lit, the campfire in Maple Lodge Campsite will now increase the temperature of the area around it
  • The Maple Lodge Campfire will now show a hot temperature reading on a Thermometer
  • You can now buy four lighters and three salt shakers

    • Three players: +1 hiding spot

  • The map screen in the truck now has up and down arrows for changing floors, instead of a single button
  • When using their ability, Jinn will now leave EMF at the Fuse Box rather than where they are currently stood
  • You will now never see ‘ghost mist’ when the ghost type is an Oni
  • The cursor will no longer lock when playing in VR
  • All locations have had their lighting re-baked, to a higher quality, to help reduce any light leaks and artifacts
  • The chance for the Mare light ability has been slightly increased
