Ghost hunters have been exploring Phasmophobia`s haunted locales for nearly five years, and now developer Kinetic Games is set to introduce a new chilling destination: Nell`s Diner.
True to its name, Nell`s Diner is a vintage-style eatery that has seen better days. While it once offered booths and counter seating for patrons, its current spectral inhabitants likely have plans for the kitchen that wouldn`t pass a health inspection. The map`s footprint won`t be significantly larger than the existing residential maps.
Although Nell`s Diner won`t be available until later this year, Kinetic Games has announced that the long-awaited revamp of the Grafton Farmhouse map will arrive in Phasmophobia on August 12th.
The redesigned Grafton Farmhouse has undergone a “complete overhaul,” featuring “newly themed rooms” such as an attic and a seamstress`s room. It appears even more unwelcoming than Nell`s Diner, exuding a distinctly eerie vibe in the provided image.
Daniel Knight, lead director for Phasmophobia, stated, “Nell`s Diner, along with the Farmhouse reworks, are pivotal to our goal of intensifying the horror in Phasmophobia, and I`m eager for our community to experience it firsthand. Our exceptional art team has tirelessly crafted this upcoming content, and the Diner map stands out as one of our most unique additions yet. We`re keeping some surprises under wraps, but expect plenty of unexpected encounters.”
Knight previously hinted that Phasmophobia would finally reach version 1.0 next year. While deliberately vague on specifics, he mentioned, “We`re essentially going to overhaul the entire horror aspect of the game. So everything is going to change.” The recent `Chronicle` update improved how players can document paranormal activity. Additionally, a Phasmophobia movie is in development by Blumhouse.
