Outlast 2 Announced, Moving Its Setting

January 8, 2016 by Ryan Parreno

No word if it picks up where the first game left off, a grim turn of events indeed.

Red Barrels have shared the first few details for Outlast 2.

The developer has indicated that the game will play very similarly to the original, but there will be a key difference. This time, it won’t be set on an insane asylum. We have yet to learn what the new setting will be for the moment.

The original Outlast was a tense survival horror, giving you only uncommon opportunities to fight and defend yourself from enemies. Instead, your character had to use parkour and hide under beds to escape enemies. Much of the game had you collecting evidence and piecing together clues on what happened to the asylum.

You can read the official press release below.

No conflict is ever black and white. But once the dust has settled, the victors get to decide who was right and who was wrong. Who is good and who is evil. Human nature pushes us to extremes of violence and depravity, which we then justify by divine inspiration and a promise of paradise to come. Horror rises from desperation and blind faith. OUTLAST 2 will test your faith, pushing players to a place where going mad is the only sane thing to do.

What are you hoping from Outlast 2? Share your thoughts with us in the comments.
