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 of the Tanglewood rework is to raise the map to the same level as the newer locations, and make Phasmophobia the game we’ve always wanted it to be. We’re so lucky to have such a dedicated fanbase, and we’re always conscious of how it could affect our veteran ghost hunters.”
Considered by many to be a beginner’s map—in fact, the original tutorial for the game was set in this house—Tanglewood is a smaller location, consisting of a single-floor house with two bedrooms, a hobby room, two toilets, a garage, a basement, and a living room, kitchen, and dining room. Following the Phasmophobia 2026 Roadmap, the next map planned for a revamp will be 13 Willow Street—another beloved location by fans.
The 6 Tanglewood Drive map rework is a free update that will be available for Phasmophobia on all platforms. Phasmophobia is available in Early Access on PC via Steam, PS5, PS VR2, and Xbox Series X|S, and coming soon to the Nintendo Switch 2.
