Kinetic Games has announced that its 4-player online co-op psychological horror Phasmophobia has shipped over 20 million copies across all platforms. The company made the announcement through the game’s official X handle.
“We’re thrilled to announce that over 20 million Ghost Hunters have begun their investigations in #Phasmophobia across all platforms,” the developer wrote on X. “Thank you so much for your support.”
The comment section of the announcement was filled with praises for the studio. A comment from @CoryNSocal said, “Thank you for putting a demo on Xbox… it’s going to help me get some buddies in to try”.

However, some players have used the opportunity to report bugs they have encountered in the game so far. One X user with the handle @TwippyHippy wrote, “There’s a bug on console that’s making you buy things on the shop while trying to interact with the jenga pieces and basketballs in the pre lobby. There’s also a bug stopping you from being able to place or drop the tier 1 tripods.”
At the time of writing, the company has yet to reply to any of the comments left under their celebratory post. However, that may be because the developer has asked those experiencing issues to report on the official Phasmophobia Discord channel. Phasmophobia was launched on September 18, 2020. It has Overwhelmingly Positive reviews on Steam.
Phasmophobia received a Halloween event called Crimson Eye on October 28, 2024, on Steam. The event also came with a significant update to the game that included optimizations and bug fixes. See the full patch note here.
Shipping 20 million copies since launch is not a small feat and part of that number can be attributed to the game’s console launch. You can purchase Phasmophobia and three other spooky games for $30, thanks to the Spooky Buddies Bundle on Steam.
