The newest game in the Outlast franchise—The Outlast Trials—is out now in early access. The game is available on PC through Steam and Epic Games Store, and is priced at $29.99. Check out the early access trailer below.
Taking place during the Cold War, The Outlast Trials is a prequel to its predecessors. Players are put into the shoes of people have who have been kidnapped by the Murkoff Corporation where unethical experiments are being run. Players have to try and complete the titular trials, while simultaneously looking for clues to try and shut down Murkoff Corporation’s illegal experiments.
In a twist from the original two Outlast games, The Outlast Trials also allows players to team up with up to 3 other players and play through the game in co-op. Levels and objectives have been designed with co-op in mind, but the game can also be completed from start to end solo.
The early access release of The Outlast Trials features character and cell customisation, as well as full character progression. More content will be added to the game throughout its time in early access, but the core of the game is available to play now.
