Outlast is just thirteen days away from clearing out the stock of towels and wipies from most major quick-marts across the country. As Miles Upshur an investigative reporter in Colorado you will brave the Mount Massive Asylum. The Murkof Corporation is hiding some secrets inside the asylum and no one would be crazy enough to go in there… Oh right, that’s where you come in, so get going!
Everyone knows a journalist gets their story but Miles seems to be risking a lot more than just some scuffed shoes and a stay at a horrible B&B to get this story. Luckily you’re controlling Miles so he has no choice but to go. Why is Outlast so scary? What secrets lie in wait for him? You can watch the trailer below to see a sneak peek at what waits for you but don’t expect me too! Outlast is hitting Steam September 4th 2013 for $19.99 but until then it’s 20% off at $15.99. This is also the kind of dream app that should come bundled with the retail version of the Oculus Rift so hopefully developer Red Battles patches that in at some point because honestly who needs clean pants all the time? Developer Red Barrles has said that Outlast will be coming to PlayStation 4 next year so if you like to back-flip over your couch and have your family laugh at you there’s that too.

About Outlast
In the remote mountains of Colorado, horrors wait inside Mount Massive Asylum. A long-abandoned home for the mentally ill, recently re-opened by the “research and charity” branch of the transnational Murkoff Corporation, has been operating in strict secrecy … until now.
Acting on a tip from an inside source, independent journalist Miles Upshur breaks into the facility, and what he discovers walks a terrifying line between science and religion, nature and something else entirely. Once inside, his only hope of escape lies with the terrible truth at the heart of Mount Massive.
