Recently, the TC gang received a strange email, inviting us to assemble and go to Hallows Hill.

Phasmophobia – PS5 Early Access

You know when you're 8 years old and it's Christmas and you've never been so excited in your entire life? That was me when I woke up to a key for Phasmophobia on PS5. Kinetic Games first announced a console version of their hit game back in June 2023 and since then has hit a few bumps in the road. With a full overhaul of the PC version last year, a studio fire and multiple setbacks, the console version has been repeatedly delayed. Now it's finally here, ready and raring to launch on Xbox and PlayStation. It's safe to say I'm a big fan of Phasmophobia, but with unforeseen challenges and a winding road to release does it actually live up to the standards that Kinetic Games set for themselves?
