  • Outlast 1 and 2 Coming to the Nintendo Switch; New Project in Same Universe Announced

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]20963[/ATTACH]
    Red Barrels announced that Outlast and Outlast 2 will soon scare you on the go. The team is bringing these two horror titles to the Nintendo Switch in early 2018. With 2018 being just around the corner, that wait won't be long at all.

    In addition, the team said that while there will one day be an Outlast 3, they are not currently working on that game. Instead, they are working on a "distinct experience set in the Outlast universe." Since they also said it isn't going to be DLC for Outlast 2, it's a bit up in the air as to what this might be. Maybe it's a middle chapter that bridges the first two games? Maybe it's some sort of a prequel to the first game? Or maybe it's just some special virtual reality Outlast experience.
    About the future, many of you have been requesting a DLC. While the first Outlast was made with the idea of a DLC in mind, that was not the case for Outlast 2. We’ve considered many options, but none of them felt appropriate for a DLC. Outlast 2 was created to make you feel like a rat in a maze, without any knowledge of what’s outside the maze.

    We will, at some point, make an Outlast 3 and answers will be given. You can also check out The Murkoff Account’s epilogue. It takes places right after the events of the second game and offers some insight into the events in the game.

    Currently we’re working on something a lot of you have been asking for... It won’t be a sequel to Outlast or Outlast 2, but it will be a distinct experience set in the Outlast universe. We can’t say more right now, we first need to make sure we can make it work. Like I mentioned, we strive to be risk-takers and this one is a pretty big challenge. If all goes well, we’ll soon be able to reveal more.

      Sorry, can't quite make out what you said over all of the remakes and remasters still coming out on the PS4 and XB1.

    Band Together in Terror: The Outlast Trials Review
    by Shawn Zipay
    The Outlast Trials proves that survival horror can be more fun with friends.

    The Outlast Trials is a four-player PvE game taking place in the Cold War era. The game's opening moments and lore paint a gruesome and wicked scene that will be familiar to series veterans but disquieting to those new to the Outlast universe. Players work their way through a series of experiments, each of which plays out on various large maps like a police station, a courthouse, a carnival, and more. The g...
