[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
“It’s time. I’ve gimmicked the Trial Shuttle to take you to the escape; you can call it from the terminal. Act like nothing’s out of the ordinary, I’ll keep this running as long as I can, but Murkoff’s going to realize something is wrong. Go now!”

The Escape

Reagents, this will likely be the only chance we’ve got… Now is your chance to Escape the Sinyala Facility!

With the help of the schematics that were collected, Amelia was able to hack Murkoff’s Trial Terminal. Interact with the Terminal in the Sleep Room to commence your Escape.
Assemble your group! You can attempt the Escape with up to 4 Reagents.
Don’t miss your shot at freedom, it may never come again.

[h2]Under Surveillance Limited-Time Event pt.2[/h2]

“For reasons solely based around your safety during therapy, we have temporarily heightened surveillance in our Trial environments. Falling under the scrutiny of our all-seeing eye will alert staff to any nearby hazards.”

Continue your progress by completing Part II of the Under Surveillance Limited-Time Event as Murkoff tries to fight against Amelia’s Escape plan.

[h3]Secondary Objectives[/h3]

Find the Escape Plans scattered throughout the Trials to help Reagents escape the Murkoff Institution.
Find the Television Broadcast and watch the Amelia’s Escape message before Murkoff does.

[h3]New Tasks: “Distract them…” [/h3]

Continue to help Amelia by completing her next batch of Tasks.

[h3]Limited-Time Catalog: Amelia ENDS April 22[/h3]

Show your support to Amelia by unlocking and wearing the exclusive cosmetics available in the Amelia Catalog.

Acquire Event Tokens by completing Under Surveillance Trials and certain Tasks.
Make sure to use all acquired Tokens before the event’s completion on April 22nd. All remaining Event Tokens will be lost.

[h2]Reagent Reborn Experimental Changes[/h2]
Since our 1.0 Launch, Reagents have amazed us by completing over 1.3 million Rebirths! As we mentioned in our previous Blog Post, the Season 3 update will be coming April 22nd and the Sinyala Facility will usher in some changes to its Reborn scientific experiment/Rebirth initiative in order to improve the Therapy. As of the Season 3 update on April 22nd at 10am ET, access to the Rebirth hallway will be closed off for the near future while we retool the Reborn procedure.

Now is the time to test your resilience and attempt becoming Reborn! Remember that you can obtain exclusive Legendary Outfits when you become Reborn, as well as Trophy Cell Items when you hit 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 75, and 100 Reborns.

Hotfix Patch Notes | Under Surveillance - March 27

Greetings Reagents,

We are deploying a small patch to fix some issues that have been reported since our latest update!

[h3]The issues our team has fixed in this patch:[/h3]

Fixed the Pitcher not spawning.
Fixed an issue where the player could crouch jump infinitely.
Fixed an issue where room clues for Kidnap the Mistress were localized to the language set in-game therefore not matching the way it is labelled within the Downtown map. All room clues will now be labelled in English for clarity.
Fixed an issue where Night Vision Goggles were misaligned after players equipped them in their Sleep Room Cell.
Fixed an issue where some players were unable to complete or claim their Weekly Task rewards. We have reset all Weekly Tasks and players can now complete them again for extra rewards.
And various other minor bug fixes.

If you experience any in-game issues feel free to join our Official 18+ Outlast Discord Server and create a ticket to speak directly with our support team. We thank everyone for taking the time to reach out to us with your issues and feedback on The Outlast Trials. Our team values your input!

Bold and brutal, if you haven't played The Outlast Trials yet, now is the time

When it arrived back in 2014, Outlast felt raw and nasty, a horror game with a distinctive aesthetic and a fantastic gimmick. The game doesn't make you, but armed with a handheld camera, you feel responsible for documenting the terrors of Mount Massive - as well as staying alive, there's this implicit pressure to capture every monstrous twist. Though it's extremely different in terms of structure, The Outlast Trials, which even after 53,000 player reviews boasts a 'very positive' rating on Steam, is true to the original's visual style. Now, just over a year since its 1.0 launch, the new Outlast Trials update makes it a more tempting proposition.
