About The Outlast Trials
Red Barrels invites you to experience stunning horror with your friends. You can complete the trials alone or as a team, and if you survive long enough to successfully complete therapy, Murkoff will gladly let you go... but will you still be the same person?
PLOT
The game is set during the Cold War, when the kind people at the Murkoff Corporation do not volunteer to recruit humans as test subjects to test advanced brainwashing and mind control techniques. In a world of suspicion, fear, and violence, your morals will be tested, your endurance tested, and your sanity shattered. All in the name of progress, science and profit.
SURVIVE: ALONE OR IN A TEAM
You are all prisoners of the Murkoff Corporation, locked inside their facility. You can choose to take on the challenges alone or complete them in a team of 2, 3 or 4 players.
HIDE OR RUN
Like the classic game Outlast, the main mechanic is to avoid enemies, hide from them and try to escape. Murkoff will give you tools that you can use to improve your stealth capabilities, create escape opportunities, slow down enemies, and more. However, you will have to earn these tools and work hard to improve them.
CHARACTER PERSONALIZATION
Choose your tools, upgrades and power-ups to suit your playstyle. Create your own test patient. Your cell will be your home while you are in therapy, you can decorate it however you like.
STUDY
You have been kidnapped by the Murkoff Corporation to undergo unethical experiments that will alter your psyche and behavior throughout the game. Collect documents and items that will help prove the Murkoff Corporation's violations of the rights of its patients.
