    Kinetic Games announced that Phasmophobia has sold more than 30 million copies across PC and console since launching in Early Access in 2020. Its annual Crimson Eye Halloween event is back and runs until 1st November, bringing blood moon weather to a rotating set of maps that makes ghosts faster and drains sanity more quickly while paying out more. Community goals unlock the Beholder ID Card and Badge and the Blood Moon Trophy, while personal goals unlock the Blood Moon Charm, a seasonal t-shirt, and Crimson Eye trophy upgrades. CEO and game director Daniel Knight said his initial goal was to sell 1000 units in the first year, and that the 1.0 release is slated for the second half of 2027.

    GTA 6 leaker CyberLeek posts another video, says full build follows if coin hits target

    GTA 6 leaker CyberLeek posted a second roughly five-minute video on ResetEra showing Lucia parachuting off a rooftop, a day after threatening to release a full playable build. The clip shows Lucia using an ATM in Vice City with a $15,000 limit and a Buckme logo, and a dev menu is visible, so the naked Lucia may be a debug feature rather than open-world gameplay. CyberLeek says the full build will be released if their cryptocurrency coin reaches a $30 million market cap, while Rockstar has called the leaks heartbreaking and parent company Take-Two is seeking the leaker's identity. GTA 6 is due out on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on 19th November.

The game takes up almost 150GB on Xbox Series X|S, and the PS5 version will likely occupy a similar amount of space.
