Phasmophobia 2024 Roadmap Overview
The first thing to note is that all known updates for Phasmophobia have no set release dates. For now, we know that the developers plan to release version 0.9, 0.10, 0.11, and a full 1.0 release at some stage in 2024. However, there's no timeframe on when these 'core' updates will launch. Likewise, we're bound to have a bunch of hotfixes and minor updates from time to time.
In addition, there's a variety of additional updates (such as the console launch and map reworks) that have not been given any specific update associated with them. Presumably, because these features are more fluid and could be pushed from one update to the next should it be required by the development team. These updates are described as "releasing separately as soon as they're ready".

Updates Releasing 'Sometime' This Year
The following features are also work-in-progress, but have no specific release date; instead, they'll be released when they're ready:
- Console - Phasmophobia's console release was delayed last year for various reasons, but the console release is on the way. Console players will also get extra features that Kinetic Games say will give them "the best experience as soon as they receive the game," such as:
-
- New & improved shop experience
- Upcoming adjustments to leveling & equipment
- Minor balance changes
- Optimizations to bring the graphical quality "as close to PC as possible"
-
- Point Hope Lighthouse - The lighthouse is Phasmophobia's newest map, featuring a "new visual them" and a "widely different gameplay experience." It will be a circular lighthouse, with rooms taking up a whole floor; this leaves developers with more room to create spots to loop and hide.
- Bleasdale & Grafton Farmhouse Map Reworks - These maps will both get a "sized layout adjustment," with updates to make them feel more alive and unique from one another.
- Other new maps
- Bug fixes
- Performance improvements
