Red Barrels’ Outlast, its expansion, and its sequel, are some of the scariest video game experiences you can have.
In Outlast 2, players step into the role of Blake Langermann, a cameraman investigating a mysterious murder in a remote Arizona desert. The search leads to the secluded and cult-like town of Temple Gate, where Blake and his wife, Lynn, become trapped in a terrifying world of fear and madness. With only a camcorder to document the horrors, players must navigate the darkness and uncover the town's sinister secrets while evading the cult's murderous members. This intense survival horror game is a sequel to the acclaimed Outlast and offers a new, nightmarish journey into the human psyche.

Outlast 2 review: “A disturbingly infuriating exercise in disappointment
Horrific in completely the wrong way, Outlast 2 is a night-vision journey into frustration. An intriguing story just can’t save the infuriating misery that awaits.

Outlast 2 has all the makings of a good horror game: alarming visuals, intense situations, menacing antagonists, and an overwhelming feeling of powerlessness. Though I would have liked the world of Temple Gate to be developed more beyond Knoth’s Gospel, I loved every minute of my playthrough.

Stealth and pursuit haven’t changed much in Outlast 2, but it excels as a beautiful, brutal journey through extreme spiritual anxieties.
