Phasmophobia developer Kinetic Games has sure been busy experimenting of late. The horror game has just got several new updates, in which the studio's trying out a whole bunch of gameplay changes. And, going by the patch notes, it looks we could see Phasmophobia's ghosts get a whole lot savvier.
In the latest beta build update notes posted on Twitter (below), ghosts get a lot of love. For example, "all ghosts except Revenants will now move increasingly faster over time if they see you during a hunt" - and this new-found speediness will "only drop if they can't see you after they have checked your last known location". On this topic, ghosts also now have a "slightly increased" maximum chase speed overall.
Additionally, ghosts in the indie game's beta build now have a chance of slightly opening both closet doors at the same time while a hunt's going on - and, they've now got a 50% chance of remembering where they last saw you during a previous hunt, too. That means they'll be heading to that area to search for you during the next one. Gulp.
