Every week, there’s a new Challenge Mode in Phasmophobia. Each Challenge Mode presents you with a new and custom difficulty that can either be simple or devastatingly difficult. Sometimes, you might have to go into a map without any electronics whatsoever and still determine the ghost type correctly, or other times, you might just have to complete certain maps with correct evidence. It all depends on the week and what type of challenge Kinetic Games feels like throwing at us. Let’s take a look at what this week’s Challenge Mode is in Phasmophobia.
This Week’s Phasmophobia Challenge Mode
This week, Phasmophobia has a pretty difficult task for us to complete:
- We’ve thrown out all of those prehistoric items, this contract is all about technology!
- Technophilia
- Correctly find the ghost type in Bleasdale Farmhouse three times.
- $5,000 & 5,000 XP reward
Compared to other weeks, this challenge will be pretty difficult to complete. Since there won’t be a full loadout available, you’ll need to make do with what you’ve been given.
In Technophilia you will only have access to tech equipment, making it wildly difficult to actually figure out the ghost type. You’ll need to reply on technology, rather than any other types of tools.
The best course of action in this instance, is to search for the most obvious audible evidence first. Banshees are often screaming or singing, while others might breathe heavily. Any of these noises, as well as the speed of the ghost’s footsteps, can be determined through hearing alone. You can find out which ghosts are more audible than others, as well as the speed of each ghost type in our cheat sheet here. Additionally, you can use cameras to find Ghost Orbs, D.O.T.S. Projectors, Spirit Boxes, and even EMF detectors. On the flip side of that though, you’ll have no protection items, and you won’t be able to check for ghost writing at all, so be sure to read the signs your ghost leaves behind, as well as their behavior.
Where to Find the Difficulty Settings
Finding the Challenge Mode for this week is as simple as opening up your game. By default, you start out in your safe house, which is exactly where you need to be. Head up to the main board to the right of the map board and interact with it. From there, select the difficulty of the hunt as if you are going to change it and scroll through the list until you find “Challenge Mode.” Selecting Challenge Mode will tell you everything you need to know about how to complete the challenge, as well as the terms of difficulty and what type of loadout and conditions you’ll be under.
