Phasmophobia adds two new ghosties that I don't want to meet

I picked up Phasmophobia again for the first time in a while this weekend, and man, I'm bad at it! I'm not up-to-speed on how to properly identify the current ghosties, and now there are already two more for me to run away from. On Friday, developers Kinetic Games added the Yokai and Hantu spectres, who both sound rather awkward to pin down - but hey, sometimes challenges are fun even if you know you're doomed to fail them. The devs have also hired a couple extra people to help out with production too.

Phasmophobia will no longer be a single-developer game

The developer behind the smash-hit Phasmophobia - undoubtedly one of the best horror games on PC - has been a single-person studio for most of the game's existence, but the team is finally expanding due to the continued popularity of the fantastic multiplayer game.

I have now started the process of hiring an experienced artist and a programmer to work on Phasmophobia. They will both start working with me on future content very soon as well as improving and expanding on the current content."
