Phasmophobia Major Update v0.10.0.0 Eventide Adds Point Hope Lighthouse
Phasmophobia's Eventide update introduces the 10-floor Point Hope lighthouse map, progression tweaks, equipment rebalancing, and extensive performance optimizations.
Kinetic Games released a content and optimization patch for Phasmophobia. Version v0.10.0.0, titled Eventide, introduces a vertical ten-floor lighthouse map, widespread equipment adjustments, and deep performance overhauls.
New Location: Point Hope
Unlocking at level 15, Point Hope features 10 floors and 12 rooms inside a lighthouse structure. Players must navigate spiral staircases and round rooms while adapting investigation tactics to lower-evidence game modes.
Progression and Rewards
The required experience to level from 1 to 100 drops by roughly 10%. Players can prestige up to level 9999, with increasing experience requirements past level 999. Payouts for correctly identifying ghosts in medium and large locations increase, and new ID card badges are available for completing specific challenges.
Equipment and Item Adjustments
Numerous items are updated across tiers. Firelight durations and light intensities increase, headgear gains customizable keybindings and distinct audio cues, and parabolic microphones detect sounds across adjacent floors. Sanity medication, tripods, sound sensors, spirit boxes, and UV lights also receive tier rebalancing and behavioral fixes.
Performance and Technical Overhauls
The update improves performance across low-end machines by streaming textures and shaders directly to the GPU, reducing VRAM and RAM usage. Weather effects, audio propagation, shadow rendering, and cloth physics for tent doors are optimized to minimize stutters and speed up loading times.
Why this patch matters
Eventide shakes up Phasmophobia with a vertical map, progression smoothing, and engine optimizations.
