Welcome back, Ghost Hunters. We’ve got an update for you.
Today, we have deployed a patch for Phasmophobia across all platforms. This update focuses on quality-of-life changes following the release of Chronicle in June and addresses feedback on several features that have been discussed within the community.

Added new recordable video evidence:
The ghost turning the Crucifix in Sunny Meadows
The burning Crucifix in the chapel of Sunny Meadows

-
An audio and visual cue now signifies the completion of recording video evidence
