Outlast 2 (stylized as OU⸸LASTII) is a 2017 first-person psychological survival horror game developed and published by Red Barrels. It is the second installment in the Outlast series, serving as a sequel the 2013 video game Outlast. The game features a cameraman named Blake Langermann, who works with his wife Lynn, a journalist, to investigate the murder of a pregnant woman only known as Jane Doe in the Arizona desert.[2] Both get separated in a helicopter crash, and Blake has to find his wife while traveling through a village inhabited by a deranged sect that believes the end of days are upon them.
Shortly after the release and popularity of Outlast, Red Barrels announced the sequel. A gameplay demo was then released at both PAX East and E3 2016 on April 22 and June 15 respectively, with a release originally slated for Autumn 2016. Due to development delays, the game was ultimately released on April 25, 2017, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The Nintendo Switch version released on March 27, 2018.
The game was met with generally positive reception upon release, with praise going towards the graphics, sound design, and atmosphere. Criticisms were reserved for the amount of gore, and difficulty.
The Murkoff Account, a comic book series set between Outlast and Outlast 2, was released from July 2016 to November 2017. A third installment in the series, entitled The Outlast Trials, was released on March 5, 2024, on Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5. It takes place during the Cold War, and is a prequel to the first Outlast.[3]
