    Outlast Looks to Out-Scare Amnesia

    Red Barrels is a new development studio made up of former Prince of Persia, Splinter Cell, and Army of Two developers. Their first title, Outlast, might give Amnesia a run for its money for the most frightening modern era horror game.

    In the remote mountains of Colorado, horrors wait inside Mount Massive Asylum. A long-abandoned home for the mentally ill, recently re-opened by the “research and charity” branch of the transnational Murkoff Corporation, has been operating in strict secrecy… until now.

    Acting on a tip from an inside source, independent journalist Miles Upshur breaks into the facility, and what he discovers walks a terrifying line being science and religion, nature and something else entirely. Once inside, his only hope of escape lies with the terrible truth at the heart of Mount Massive.

    The game is slated for release this year for the PC. And yes, we understand that the trailer is from last year, but the Red Barrels team apparently has a presence at PAX East 2013 and it's the first I've heard about it.

    I have a love-hate relationship with this genre.
