Originally slated for release this year, The Outlast Trials is now has a 2022 release on PC to allow the team more time to give fans the best experience possible. “This is a huge moment for us and we’re extremely proud to be in a position to give our fans and community just a dark taste of what’s to come in The Outlast Trials during 2022.” “After years of development, we’re excited to collaborate with Geoff Keighley and the Opening Night Live team to debut the first gameplay teaser trailer for The Outlast Trials,” said David Chateauneuf, Red Barrels co-founder, and designer. The Outlast Trials is a unique cooperative horror game with a fantastic premise and some really memorable scenarios, but while the early access version proves the concept there’s a lot of work.

The game is a whole new take on the Outlast survival horror experience, The Outlast Trials is set in the same universe as the previous titles for one to four players, set for release during 2022. Red Barrels have promised that pricing and available content will be revealed at a later date.Red Barrels released the gameplay reveal of The Outlast Trials during gamescom Opening Night Live 2021. We’ll see which way The Outlast Trials swings when it launches into early access on May 18th on Steam and The Epic Games Store. Outlast 2 was a much longer romp that definitely (ahem) outlasted its stay, but its trippy, disappearing environments worked well enough to scare me. The sequel was a little more divisive as it took the gory chase scenes to a rural Arizona, replacing brainwashed patients with brainwashed cult goers. The original Outlast made waves for its shakycam scares and shadowy mental institution that will “intrigue, terrify and surprise you in equal measure,” according to RPS’s original review. Although, arguably the the most gruesome stat was that players spent 35 years of playtime in Trial's closed beta - a sickening feat for even the most masochistic horror buff. 225k players died over the Halloween weekend, with a further 650k incapacitated. Speaking of the closed beta, Red Barrels’ co-founder Philippe Morin said “Our first round of willing participants to take part in the trials provided us with some insightful feedback and very interesting data, which we have used to improve the experience.” The studio also released some fun data from the playtests.Ĭlosed beta players spent 11 years in the safety of night vision, something that I’d incessantly turn on in Outlast 1 and 2, before I ran out of batteries and cowered in the dark. Outlast Trials contains all of that fun stuff, but this time you can also drag along a friend to be traumatised with you in this Cold War-era prequel. The Outlast Trials has everything you’d expect from the horror series anxiety-fuelled sprinting in the dark, shakily hiding from brainwashed killers under bed posts, using a night vision camera to re-enact the snotty crying scene from Blair Witch.
