Now,Update 0.12.0.1 forPhasmophobiahas been released, bringing some major changes to the Bleasdale Farmhouse, one of the oldest maps in the horror game. According to the patch notes, Bleasdale Farmhouse has been fully overhauled with a new layout, fresh visual assets and other environmental features. Some of the new changes include motion-sensing exterior lights that both players and ghosts can trigger, more ghost interactive objects, and several lights that can be toggled with switches. Overall, it seems like the map was greatly changed, so gamers can expect new surprises. Apart from these major tweaks, a few bugs have been fixed, preventing problems like white blocks appearing on screen, location glitches that caused gamers to get stuck, and more.
