The Outlast series has long been known as one of the most terrifying in gaming. In 2024, Red Barrels introduced The Outlast Trials, a fresh take on the franchise that adds cooperative gameplay while preserving its signature atmosphere of horror and survival. This time, players find themselves in the 1950s, during the Cold War. The Murkoff Corporation is conducting brutal experiments on humans, testing methods of mind control. You are one of their test subjects, trapped in this nightmarish labyrinth where every mistake can cost you your life. Your goal is to survive, hide, and endure terrifying trials while trying to keep your sanity intact.
