ABOUT THE GAME

Outlast 2 is the sequel to the acclaimed survival horror game Outlast.

Story
Outlast 2 introduces you to Sullivan Knoth and his followers, who left our wicked world behind to give birth to Temple Gate, a town, deep in the wilderness and hidden from civilization. Knoth and his flock are preparing for the tribulations of the end of times and you’re right in the thick of it. You are Blake Langermann, a cameraman working with your wife, Lynn. The two of you are investigative journalists willing to take risks and dig deep to uncover the stories no one else will dare touch. You're following a trail of clues that started with the seemingly impossible murder of a pregnant woman known only as Jane Doe. The investigation has lead you miles into the Arizona desert, to a darkness so deep that no one could shed light upon it, and a corruption so profound that going mad may be the only sane thing to do.

Gameplay
Much like Outlast's first protagonist, Blake can effectively hide behind and under furniture, inside barrels, among cornfields, climb ledges and crawl through narrow gaps. His only tool is a video camera with a night-vision, and a sound level meter, which he can use to navigate in dark places and to indicate sound sources. Using the night vision and the microphone consumes batteries, which Blake has to collect during his journey.
