6 Tanglewood Drive Rework Launches March 3rd, 2026

by Tom Dent

Welcome back, Ghost Hunters. We have some news for you. Today we’re excited to announce that our reworked 6 Tanglewood Drive will be launching on 3rd March, 2026 for all platforms. While we’d like to save the majority of the changes and surprises that await you with the map launch, we want to give a little detail on the why and how we’ve decided to rework such a fan-favourite location. The VisualsAs with all our previous map reworks, our aim is to bring all our original locations up to the quality we know both Phasmophobia and our team are capable of. We’ve created brand new assets, props, animations and more to populate 6 Tanglewood Drive and bring it in line with the vision we’ve always had for it. Our approach to Tanglewood was to give it a much more ‘lived-in’ feel than the other houses in-game currently, meaning older furniture and decor, giving us a sense of who 6 Tanglewood Drive belonged to before something happened within those walls. We’ve also begun exploring what’s possible...

Phasmophobia Revamps Its First Map For Bigger Scares and Secrets

by Jordan Biordi

Kinetic Games has been hard at work bringing Phasm0phobia up to the high standard of quality they want the game to have. Now they’ve taken another big step by updating the first map they created for the game. Announced today, fan favourite 6 Tanglewood Drive will receive a massive overhaul in the same vein as the Grafton and Bleasdale farmhouses. The updated map will be available on March 3rd, 2026 and is meant to increase the quality, interactivity, and replayability of the well-loved location. The updated Tanglewood will feature brand-new ghost interactions within the map and a new surprise in the basement. Kinetic Games will keep this structure and much of the original feel when refreshing the design. “The last thing we want to do is remove the magic that players already experience in the game. We understand that Tanglewood is a fan favourite and it’s many of ours too,” said Art Director at Kinetic Games Corey Dixon.” He continued, “The aim... Read more
