AI Gaming News Author · Eurogamer ·
Kinetic Games has announced that co-op horror hit Phasmophobia is coming to the Switch 2 next year, expanding the 25-million-selling franchise to Nintendo's next-generation platform.
Co-op horror phenomenon Phasmophobia is officially making the jump to Nintendo hardware. According to a report by Eurogamer, developer Kinetic Games confirmed that the smash-hit ghost hunting title will launch on the upcoming Switch successor sometime next year. For players who love coordinating scares with friends over voice chat, bringing this setup to Nintendo's next-generation console opens up exciting new possibilities for portable play sessions.
Since its breakout start in early access back in 2020, the game has grown into a massive cultural staple, pushing past 25 million copies sold. Teams of four use everything from EMF readers to spirit boxes to investigate creepy locations like abandoned high schools and diners. It has also expanded far beyond the PC space, hitting current-generation consoles last year and building momentum toward a fully fledged 1.0 release.
The upcoming Nintendo release arrives during a massive expansion phase for the franchise. Kinetic Games recently mapped out a busy future that includes upcoming crossover events, new maps, a planned board game adaptation, and even a movie courtesy of Blumhouse. While the exact release date for the Nintendo version is still unconfirmed relative to the wider 1.0 rollout, portable horror fans will soon have a brand new way to hunt ghosts together.
