Kinetic Games has announced a limited-time Phasmophobia event titled “Phasmophobia by Alan Wake.” This crossover event with Alan Wake II will launch on May 12. The event “introduces a new presence that bleeds into familiar locations, shifts in the shadows, and twists investigations in ways ghost hunters have never encountered before.” A trailer for the event was also released. Phasmophobia is currently in Early Access for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam, with a Switch 2 version also planned.
Remedy Entertainment creative director Sam Lake commented on the announcement in a press release:
“There are many fans of Phasmophobia at Remedy, so it was a thrilling opportunity to bring these two horror worlds together in this dream—or rather, nightmare—collaboration, It was a joy to write this. Our two twisted worlds amplify each other perfectly.”
Kinetic Games CEO Daniel Knight added:
“Working with Remedy has been an incredible experience, and the way these two worlds overlap has opened up some unsettling possibilities that we’re excited for players to explore. It’s a natural crossover, and our art team has been hard at work capturing the atmosphere of Alan Wake II, bringing the essence of some of the game’s iconic locations into Phasmophobia. We can’t wait for fans of both games to see what the event has in store on May 12.”
