Phasmophobia hits new sales milestone with over 25 million copies sold

Phasmophobia hit it big back in 2020 when the game was released in Early Access, launching to near immediate success. In the years since, the team at Kinetic Games have continued to work diligently on the game, improving it across the board. 5 years on and Phasmophobia continues to thrive, having now officially sold over 25 million copies.

Making the announcement via a press release, the team at Kinetic Games officially revealed that “Phasmophobia has now surpassed over 25 million sales across all platforms.”

For context, the game first arrived in early access back in September of 2020, going on to achieve near immediate success.

In the years following, a console version of the game was planned. Unfortunately, a fire at the studio’s office led to a number of delays. Finally however, Phasmophobia officially launched on consoles back in October of last year – going on to sell over 1 million units in its first month and pushing total copies to 22 million.

Phasmophobia Million

Though we did not get a breakdown of platforms, it is likely that a majority of the 3 million additional players hail from the PS5 / Series X|S. That said, given just how much support Phasmophobia has received (and continues to receive), it’s entirely possible that the game has simply found even more of an audience on the PC platform.

Regardless, Phasmophobia is now one of the best selling games of all time, putting it just outside of the top 50 list. Given just how much the game continues to sell however, it’ll only be a matter of time before it outperforms the likes of GTA: San Andreas; Super Mario Odyssey and perhaps even Elden Ring. We will have to wait and see.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
