Red Barrels continues to dole out the goods for The Outlast Trials, this time with a new Halloween update. Arriving October 26, the update will coincide with a Steam and Epic Games Store sale from October 26 – November 2 that includes a 20% discount for the Early Access game, as well as the release of the Official Soundtrack on Spotify.
The Halloween update includes the introduction of new Trial ‘Program 4: Courthouse’ and new Weekly Programs for The Outlast Trials, as well as additional MK-Challenges, and Program Geister; a limited-time Halloween event that includes special rewards. Subjects can also anticipate new Amps, Variators, Prescriptions, Cosmetics, Cell Items, and a Sleep Room Minigame, as well as numerous quality-of-life enhancements.
Alongside the updates and improvements, the team also addressed other areas of the game:
- Reward efforts even in the event of failing a Trial
- Penalising group players not participating in Trials
- Improve the Trial selection process as a group
- Keep improving the solo experience
- Keep improving the AI behaviour in some edge case situations
Lastly, audiophiles will be able to listen to the official soundtrack of The Outlast Trials by composer Tom Salta (Deathloop, Halo, Ghost Recon) on Spotify on October 25.
The Outlast Trials is currently in Early Access on PC on Steam and the Epic Games Store. And don’t forget to check out the recent making-of documentary about the game.
