Troubleshooting

How to fix Phasmophobia not working

Phasmophobia is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach kineticgames.co.uk over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Restart Phasmophobia and Steam

    Close the game and your platform client, then open both again to clear a stuck login or lobby. Test a solo session first.

  2. Switch Phasmophobia Region

    In the Multiplayer menu, change the Region setting to a server near you, then try to join or host again. A distant server can cause timeouts and disconnects.

  3. Verify Phasmophobia Game Files

    Open Steam, right-click Phasmophobia in your Library, select Properties, go to Installed Files, and click Verify integrity of game files. Steam will replace missing or corrupt files, which can fix crashes and failed launches.

  4. Reinstall Phasmophobia

    If nothing else works, uninstall Phasmophobia through Steam's Library, then install it again. This takes time and a stable connection, but it clears local files that verify may miss.

While Phasmophobia is down: what to use instead

  • Demonologist If your group wants the same loop of gathering evidence and naming what haunts the place, Demonologist plays the closest, with co-op hunts through cursed locations.
  • Lethal Company Good for keeping the squad's voice chat going, because it has proximity voice and co-op scares, though you scavenge scrap for a quota instead of identifying ghosts.
  • Devour Pick it for a short session: you and up to three friends try to stop a possessed cult leader.
  • Content Warning For a sillier night, your team films monsters and tries to get the footage to go viral, so the scares turn into clips you can laugh at afterwards.
Your device

About

What happens when Phasmophobia goes down

Phasmophobia is a co-op ghost hunting game for PC and consoles, and its online lobbies, invites and voice chat carry the whole experience for groups who play together. An outage cuts into the part people came for: getting a squad into a contract and talking through it while the hunt runs.

The first thing to break is usually the lobby: a friend's game never shows up, or a join attempt stalls on a connecting screen and then fails. Voice chat goes next. Groups can hear each other fine in the lobby and lose audio once the contract starts, which kills callouts right when they matter. Losing a saved round stings more than a dropped match. Trouble clusters by platform or region, and since players host their own sessions, plenty of lobbies keep running while others fail.

Questions

Phasmophobia FAQ

Is Phasmophobia down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the game are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. This site does not ping or monitor the game servers. A quiet status can still miss a problem that only hits your account or region, so test your side before you blame the game. Try another online game or store page on the same device, then restart your router and confirm Steam or your console network is online; if Phasmophobia still fails at the lobby or during a contract, the issue is likely with the game or its servers.

Why does Phasmophobia keep disconnecting me from a multiplayer lobby?

A disconnect can come from the host leaving or a bad connection between players. If you drop before the van doors close, try hosting your own lobby and see whether friends can join you. When the same disconnect happens in solo play too, your internet route or the game servers are more likely to blame than one bad host.

Can I play Phasmophobia solo if the servers are having issues?

Solo contracts still need the same online login that co-op uses, so a server problem can block single-player too. If you can reach the main menu, start a solo contract on a small map and watch whether the game saves your progress after you finish. A failure there points to the service, while a failure only in a friend's lobby points to that host or your connection to them.

Why can my friends join my Phasmophobia lobby but I can't join theirs?

A version mismatch or a host-side connection problem can block one lobby while other rooms still work. Ask the host to restart the lobby and check that everyone has the same update, then try joining a public lobby on your own. If public lobbies work and only that friend's room fails, the trouble sits between your two connections.

Why did my Phasmophobia money and level reset after a disconnect?

Progress saves to the game's servers, so a disconnect during a contract can wipe the rewards from that match even if your account stays intact. Sign out and back into the same Steam or console profile, then restart the game and check your level and money again. If the profile is correct and everything is still gone, the save may need a server reconnect, and this page cannot restore it.

How we track Phasmophobia

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Phasmophobia, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Phasmophobia, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Phasmophobia doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
