With so many live-service multiplayer-focused titles shutting down, it’s good to see titles like Red Barrels’ The Outlast Trials thriving. The development team its plans for upcoming content, which includes new limited-time events, cosmetics, modes, and more. However, it also confirmed a new milestone of three million players.
The Outlast Trials entered early access in May 2023 and sold over 500,000 copies in its launch week. It would cross one million sales in July and two million in April 2024. The developer also confirmed that over 1.2 million players became “Reborn” – a term used to indicate completing the base game once.
Available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC, The Outlast Trials deviates from previous titles with its co-op premise. As participants in the Murkoff Corporation’s experiments, they must complete deadly Trials (usually involving a crazed killer) and eventually escape.
