RELATED: The Outlast Trials Preview Footage Released Red Barrels has since decided to take Outlast in a different direction, leaving behind campaign-driven single-player horror games in favor of something new. Outlast 2 introduces yet another Murkoff experiment, this time leading to the rise of a murderous cult. Outlast launched in 2013, introducing players to the Murkoff Corporation's experiments on violent asylum inmates.

Up until this point, Outlast has been a single-player franchise of nightmarish survival horror games. It seems Red Barrels is hoping to do some experiments of its own, with The Outlast Trials' going into early access relatively soon.

Players can work together cooperatively to survive the horrors of the Murkoff Corporation's latest horrifying experimentation. Developer Red Barrels seeks to try a new experiment in the Outlast universe with its upcoming four-player game.

An early access release date has been announced for the highly anticipated multiplayer survival horror game The Outlast Trials.
