    Developer: Red Barrels

    Platforms: Windows PC, PS4 

    Release: September 4th 2013 (PC), TBA 2014 (PS4)

    Background:

    In the remote mountains of Colorado, horrors wait inside Mount Massive Asylum. A long-abandoned home for the mentally ill, recently re-opened by the “research and charity” branch of the transnational Murkoff Corporation, has been operating in strict secrecy… until now. 

    Acting on a tip from an inside source, independent journalist Miles Upshur breaks into the facility, and what he discovers walks a terrifying line between science and religion, nature and something else entirely. Once inside, his only hope of escape lies with the terrible truth at the heart of Mount Massive.

    Features: 
    True Survival Horror Experience: You are no fighter - if you want to survive the horrors of the asylum, your only chance is to run... or hide
    Immersive Graphics: AAA-quality graphics give players a detailed, terrifying world to explore
    Hide and Sneak: Stealth-based gameplay, with parkour-inspired platforming elements
    Unpredictable Enemies: Players cannot know when - and from where - one of the asylum’s terrifying inhabitants will finally catch up to them
    Real Horror: Outlast’s setting and characters are inspired by real asylums and cases of criminal insanity

  • I've read Edge's 9/10 and Eurogamer's 7/10 and I don't know where Edge got their 9 from.... Are they hiring writers not befitting the Edge badge?

    The talent behind this are ex PoP (Sands of Time), Uncharted, and Splinter Cell staff. Says enough, don't you think?

    The Mirrors Edge running away mechanic works perfectly.

    £12 for 5 hours of tension. Can't say better than that.

    Aye, that's what I was meaning (about PS+).

    I don't think I'd buy it if it wasn't for that - survival horror just ain't normally my genre - but I'll give it a go, and have Bollo's Siren Blood Curse to try and convert me too...
  • I dont usually play these sorts of games and im just waiting for A machine for pigs really, but after my (hopefully achieveable) nap, this thing is going to get some OR treatment
  • Just gave this a couple of hours with the OR, after a bunch of tweaking i got it running very nicely, seems you can overcome the motion sickness with a bit of tweaking things and getting used to moving your head along with the mouse if you can

    Scared shitless at points, no sense so far of the paranormal, a lot of wierdness, the graphics are both subdued yet excellent and no shortage of grisly scenes - In the OR its just fecking ace, never really had something quite like that before. Need to take a break cause it was getting stressy

    I'd be all over this is my laptop wasn't fuck awful.
  • Just spent 3 hours or so on this after finally getting the settings with the OR appreciable, not an experience i'll forget too soon
