Get ready for a spine-chilling experience as Outlast series developer Red Barrels announces that its multiplayer horror game The Outlast Trials will release on PS5 in early 2024. Following its PC Early Access debut, the game is set to expand its reach to previous and current-gen consoles.
Outlast Trials is coming to PlayStation 5 on March 5, 2024
Scheduled for release on March 5, 2024, The Outlast Trials will be available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, offering a wider audience the opportunity to explore the terrifying world created by Red Barrels. The decision to bring the game to both the latest and previous console generations ensures that a wide range of players can participate in this terrifying experience.
Unlike its predecessors, The Outlast Trials brings multiplayer to the horror franchise. Players can face the mind-blowing horror alone or team up with friends as they progress through eerie trials designed by the Murkoff Corporation. Upon completion of therapy, survival is promised, but the question remains: will players emerge from the harrowing experience unscathed or forever changed?
The game is set against the backdrop of the Cold War, adding a historical layer to the horror narrative. Players find themselves as unwilling participants recruited by the Murkoff Corporation as guinea pigs to test their advanced brainwashing and mind control methods. In a world of mistrust, fear and violence, players will face moral dilemmas, test their resilience and face challenges that threaten their sanity. The overarching theme revolves around progress, science and profit, highlighting the dark and ethically questionable experiments conducted in the name of progress.
Outlast Trials invites players to step into a world where survival is not just about escaping monsters, but navigating the complex web of human psychology and the moral implications of scientific progress. With the game now available on consoles, horror fans can prepare themselves for an immersive and collaborative nightmare in early 2024.
