PHP is still relevant for browser games. There are tons of companies (Gameforge, Funzio, Goodgame Studios, etc.) that use PHP for their online games. I think PHP and Java are most widely used, but learning something like Node.js and Python can be beneficial as well. It really depends on what you want to focus on. Learn new technologies/a new programming language, or create a game with the tools you already know? As others suggested, you could improve your game-client by using technologies like HTML5 and JavaScript. For the backend you can still use PHP. That might give you enough new stuff to learn while you can still benefit from your PHP programming skills.
