The first gameplay has been revealed for The Outlast Trials

Red Barrels, the folks behind the Outlast games, have used Gamescom as the perfect place to debut the first gameplay of the next title in the Outlast series, The Outlast Trials, check it out below.

Set within the same world as the other Outlast games, this one will send players to the time of the Cold War era and have them take on the role of test subjects abducted by the shadowy Murkoff Corporation. Imprisoned in a secret Murkoff facility, players will be thrust into a series of physical and mental ordeals, tormented by iconic characters, and challenged alone or in teams to survive with their sanity intact.

“After years of development, we’re excited to collaborate with Geoff Keighley and the Opening Night Live team to debut the first gameplay teaser trailer for The Outlast Trials,” said David Chateauneuf, Red Barrels co-founder and designer. “This is a huge moment for us and we’re extremely proud to be in a position to give our fans and community just a dark taste of what’s to come in The Outlast Trials during 2022.”

The Red Barrels development team is hard at work to give deliver an all-new experience with The Outlast Trials, so with that in mind the release date is sometime in 2022. Right now there are no confirmed platforms, but given the series has hit every platform so far, it is likely this will come to most of them at least.
