Outlast

Updated v1.0a + DLC

Outlast is a first-person survival horror game set in Mount Massive Asylum, where you play as investigative journalist Miles Upshur. Armed only with a camcorder, you must explore dark corridors, use night vision to navigate pitch-black areas, and document horrifying experiments while avoiding deadly encounters with mutated patients. Stealth and evasion are essential, as combat is not an option, and you rely on hiding, sprinting, and managing battery life to survive. The game emphasizes psychological tension through immersive audio design, disturbing imagery, and a narrative uncovered via scattered documents and environmental storytelling.

About this game

Outlast Overview

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, the asylum has been operating in strict secrecy… until now.

Acting on a tip from an anonymous 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.

  • Stealth-based gameplay, with parkour-inspired platforming elements.
  • You are no fighter – if you want to survive the horrors of the asylum, your only chance is to run… or hide.
  • Outlast’s setting and characters are inspired by real asylums and cases of criminal insanity.
