Today, Kinetic Games unveiled the release date for Phasmophobia’s hotly anticipated new map, Nell’s Diner! During a TwitchCon panel celebrating the fifth anniversary of the genre-defining horror game, the developers released a trailer offering a new glimpse into the abandoned restaurant – which is set to open on November 11th.
Ghost Hunters will soon be able to explore Nell’s, a run-down, retro restaurant that’s been long-abandoned by staff and diners alike. Set to be one of the game’s smaller maps, similar in size to the houses, it features a classic food counter complete with red leather stools and booths, a kitchen, storage rooms, and of course, plenty of hauntings to decipher.
Nell’s Diner will be Phasmophobia’s 14th map, and follows two substantial reworks to the game’s existing maps earlier this year, the Bleasdale and Grafton Farmhouses.
“So far, we’ve added some really classic horror locations to Phasmophobia – an abandoned asylum, creepy farmhouses, and our more linear lighthouse map, Point Hope. We always thought a diner would fit perfectly, so Nell’s was born, and it’s been such a fun challenge bringing it to life,” said Daniel Knight (Dknighter), Director of Kinetic Games and Lead Developer of Phasmophobia.
“Alongside the farmhouse reworks from this year, Nell’s is an example of how we want all the maps in Phasmophobia to feel going forward. It’s unique, and has been meticulously designed to tell more of a story to our players – beyond the immediate ghost they’re hunting. We can’t wait for everyone to get their hands on it next month.”
