It’s back again. Kinetic Games will be launching the “Crimson Eye” Halloween event for Phasmophobia on Thursday, October 9. Running until Halloween, the event will see Ghost Hunters tasked with working together to complete goals in order to unlock in-game rewards. As with the “Cursed Hollow” event earlier this year, Kinetic Games has made several tweaks to the previous iteration of the event to keep players on their toes.
Throughout the event, select maps will play host to guaranteed Blood Moon weather. Be warned as the Blood Moon brings with it an increase in difficulty when conducting your investigations. Ghosts will have increased speed during hunts and your Sanity will drain quicker. However, in return you’ll be granted higher rewards upon completing an investigation.
This year’s event locations include the following maps:
- 6 Tanglewood Drive
- Camp Woodwind
- Grafton Farmhouse
- Bleasdale Farmhouse
- Point Hope
- 42 Edgefield Road
- 13 Willow Street
These maps will rotate in groups of 4 each day and will guarantee Blood Moon weather. Maps not included in the event, as well as those above that are not active on a given day, will have a random chance of Blood Moon weather.
For those who are successful in their investigations during the rise of the Blood Moon, you’ll garner various rewards. Firstly, all rewards received during Blood Moon weather will be boosted by 10%, meaning the higher the risk, the higher the reward.
On top of extra rewards from successful investigations, the Crimson Eye will bestow upon the community a range of rewards should they successfully complete the goals set out at the start of the event. Based on feedback from previous events, there is now a split between Community Goals and Personal Goals:
- Community Goal 1 – Receive the Child of the Cult ID Card & Badge set.
- Community Goal 2 – Receive the Crimson Eye trophy.
- Personal Goal 1 – Receive the animated Child of the Cult ID Card.
- Personal Goal 2 – Upgrade the Crimson Eye trophy (can be completed 3 times).
Once these goals have been reached, the rewards will be auto-claimed for all players so there’s no need to worry about missing out.
The “Crimson Eye” event will be available for Phasmophobia players on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation VR2, and the Xbox Series.
