The Outlast Trials Closed Beta Dates Revealed Alongside First Look Trailer - Gamescom Opening Night Live
After a long wait, we've gotten a new look at The Outlast Trials, and it's quite gruesome.
Revealed at Gamescom's Opening Night Live event, The Outlast Trial reveals a world reminsicent of BioShock, complete with freakish masks. Be warned, because the new trailer is not for faint of heart or weak of stomach.
The Outlast Trials is a spin-off from developer Red Barrels' horrific first-person horror series. The Outlast Trials was first announced back in 2019, and adds multiplayer to the horror mix. Set amid the Cold War, you play a human guinea pig recruited to test methods of brainwashing and mind control. You'll be trying to survive deeply unethical experiments alone, or with up to three partners.
In addition to the first look, The Outlast Trials was also confirmed to be getting a closed beta on Steam. The beta will run from October 28 to November 1, so you'll be appropriately be able to play on Halloween.
The Outlast Trials was shown alongside lots of games at Opening Night Live, including Dead Island 2 and Hogwarts Legacy. You can find the full Gamescom Opening Night Live recap here.
