Updated Date :

Phasmophobia is the best combination of multiplayer and horror. In this game, up to 4 players can come together to gather evidence and engage in some ghost hunting. It is still in early access right now and those who want to get the true experience, can use the VR mode for added horror. If you want to be a paranormal investigator with your friends, you might want to know how to invite friends in Phasmophobia. In this guide, we will explain how to invite as well as join friends in Phasmophobia easily.

If a friend of yours has created a lobby and you want to join it, all you have to do is press the Play button and click on Join Private Game. Next, paste the code that you have received from your friend and start the game.

Be warned, though, because you will be spooked! Make sure you know how to use the crucifix, set up the cameras and light the smudge sticks during your ghost hunting. Plus, learn how to communicate with ghosts by using the Spirit Box. There’s also a known Spirit Box bug/glitch and we have a fix for it in our linked guide.
