Philippe Morin, Co-Founder of Red Barrels comments:
The Closed Beta was just a taste of what’s to come in The Outlast Trials. Our first round of willing participants to take part in the trials provided us with some insightful feedback and very interesting data, which we have used to improve the experience.
“We received so many requests for the Closed Beta that we’re looking forward to welcoming even more players to The Outlast Trials when it comes to Early Access on May 18th.
The Outlast Trials brings a brand-new take on The Outlast franchise. It is set inside the same terrifying universe as the previous titles however, this time around, you can choose to play solo or with a friend or random people with up to four players in a team. The game is set in the height of the Cold War era and in the game, players will take on the role of test subjects abducted by the shadowy Murkoff Corporation. You are imprisoned in a secret Murkoff facility and will be subjected to a series of physical and mental ordeals, tormented by iconic characters, and challenged to survive with your sanity intact.
Additional details about The Outlast Trials will be revealed at a later stage however if you are interested in playing The Outlast Trials during its Early Access phase, you can head to the official Steam and Epic Games Store page of the game and add it to your wishlist.
