Red Barrels, the studio behind the immersive indie horror series Outlast, launched The Outlast Trials‘ latest Major Update, Project Breach, this morning. This update introduces the story of asylum escapee Amelia Collier (Caroline Dhavernas; Hannibal), a new Trial, a new environment, a new enemy, and a new player ability (The Jammer Rig).
Set in 1959 at the height of the Cold War, human guinea pigs are involuntarily recruited to test advanced methods of mind control in their nightmare facility. In The Outlast Trials, crush your morals and test your sanity on the path to rebirth as one of Murkoff’s Reagents while discovering the secret documents littered throughout the facility.
The Outlast Trials is the third installment in Red Barrels’ critically acclaimed psychological horror series. In a 4-player co-op, complete escape room-style puzzles while avoiding the twisted victims of Murkoff’s experiments using a combination of stealth, speed, and teamwork. In Project Breach, the new character, Amelia Collier, provides new ground for players to explore the world and story further while also providing a challenge.
In a unique blend of survival horror and online escape room, The Outlast Trials challenges players with Aperture Science-style tests that Jigsaw himself would shudder at. Complete Trials, return to your cell, upgrade your therapies, and steel your nerves to face horrors beyond your imagination. The latest trial and challenges featured in the latest update continue to build on the precedent set by previous trials.
