Synopsis:
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, the asylum has been operating in strict secrecy… until now.
Acting on a tip from an anonymous 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.
Outlast is a true survival horror experience which aims to show that the most terrifying monsters of all come from the human mind.
Features:
- True Survival Horror Experience: You are no fighter - if you want to survive the horrors of the asylum, your only chance is to run... or hide
- Immersive Graphics: AAA-quality graphics give players a detailed, terrifying world to explore
- Hide and Sneak: Stealth-based gameplay, with parkour-inspired platforming elements
- Unpredictable Enemies: Players cannot know when - and from where - one of the asylum’s terrifying inhabitants will finally catch up to them
- Real Horror: Outlast’s setting and characters are inspired by real asylums and cases of criminal insanity
Warning:
Outlast contains intense violence, gore, graphic sexual content, and strong language. Please enjoy.

Really disturbed so i guess it did its job. Dislike the whole camcorder feature, not tryna see all of that nothing with a hint of green glare, i do NOT f with that strongly. Characters were nice, Trager was a sweet guy would like to see him wear pants sometime and also have a hair transplant because the balding is severe. Also got pretty bad motion sickness from it so had to keep taking breaks but that's not really the games fault maybe it is though idk. Overall 6.67/10.
If your're a fan of survival horror games, Outlast is a must play. This game delivers an intense and immersive experience with its eerie atmosphere, chilling sound design, and heart pounding moments. Exploring the Mount Massive Asylum with only your camcorder for light creates a constant sense of vulnerability, making every encounter terrifying. The storytelling is gripping, and the first person perspective pulls you deeper into the horror. It's not just about jump scares--Outlast builds genuine tension and keeps you on edge from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone who loves horror or wants a game that truly tests their nerves.
Amazing game. One of the scariest I've ever played. If you play at recommended settings, the game is so unbelievably dark and stingy with NV batteries that this alone can create some of the worst anxiety I have ever had while playing a video game. Throw in a bunch of homicidal maniacs with pinpoint hearing and you have an experience that's just as hard to play as it is to put down.
9/10, genuinely incredible.
Immersive and actually scary at times. A bit frustrating to understand what you're supposed to do from time to time.
Reviewing this after finishing Outlast 2... I originally played through this game back when it came out and then revisited it a few years ago. Incredibly immersive and the fear when that music kicks in will haunt me forever. 10/10.
The first entry to what will become one of the best horror series of all time 👏👏
when else would you get chased by emotionally vulnerable, hunk and naked men? only when you play this game ^.^
Outlast is a creepy game and it also has a good story. Dlc is also good but I didn't like the ending of the main game. Its a top five horror in my opinion.
I've been wanting to play this game for years, not sure why it took me so long to finally play it to be honest. But it's pretty good. For a game this old, I feel like the $20 price tag is a little steep, especially since it's not very long, so if you haven't played it yet but want to, I would wait for a sale.
Random side note: was genuinely surprised to see male nudity since this is a rarity in games. I forgot what men looked like for a hot minute before I played this.
The Main things I Don't Like:
The NPCs that chased you were too omniscient, even on a lower difficulty. For example, I would be behind a door while the doorway was open, and a guy would immediately know I was there as soon as he entered the doorway. They would also seemingly know the exact room I am in when I ran quite a few rooms away. Just a bit annoying.
The chase scenes feel a bit repetitive. Wish it wasn't the same guy most of the game.
The sounds that play for "jumpscares" are ridiculously loud compared to the other sounds in the game, and this setting cannot be changed. Just felt a bit cheap. I don't scare easily in horror games, but I am more sensitive to noises, so this is just a me-thing. Literally the only time I actually got jumpscared in this game was the first one, since I wasn't sure what to expect and the sound was pretty jarring. After that, I was actually more on edge of "will there be noises?" rather than actually being scared.
No spoilers, but the ending seemed a bit out of left-field and didn't fit into the rest of the game in my opinion. Wasn't a fan of that last area. It was actually also the only part of the game that genuinely gave me chills, so I'll give it that. I don't know what it is about me with horror games, where I'm not scared at all until the writers throw in something crazy at the end that leaves me chilled. This is the second horror game I've played recently that's done this to me, which looking back is kind of funny.
Main things I like:
- Everything else.
- Insane asylum environments are always fascinating, and I like how each area feels a bit different even though you are in the same building.
- There is a variety of different types of NPCs. Not everyone is out to get you, which gives this game depth and intrigue.
- Listening to the dialogue from NPCs.
- Optional notes to pick up if you want to know more about the story/main character's thoughts, and if you don't care, the main game, in my opinion, carries just as fine by itself without this extra information.
- The character you play as doesn't talk.
- The game doesn't sugarcoat anything.
- Gameplay is simple and easy to get into.
- Not a very long game, but by the time it starts to feel like it overstays its welcome, the game is almost over, so I feel like it's a good thing that it's a pretty short one.
+ Cool story
+ Great grafic design for the time when game was realesed (but I think it´s still good even nowadays)
+ Video game ambience and soundtrack are masterpiece.
- The only downsides are the occasional bugs which may or may not appear. But it´s nothing major.
Even with graphics that old this is still a classic of horror. You experience every feeling with your character until you get desperate and want to start running yourself.
Great and intense game, definitely sets the right mood for the horror genre. Everyone needs to give it a go at least once if you want a good narrative horror game :)
it took me 4.5 hours to beat first time it is so much fun and the ending is really good. An extremely Solid 9.9/10. The only thing that is keeping it from being a 10/10 is that the graphics are very much early 2010's graphics and Mile's Vomiting animation is very much from my scratch project from year 3 but overall absolutely worth your godam money!!!!!!!!!
Considering the age of this game and that the graphics are done in DirectX 9, this is an excellent game. It has a little of everything in it without overwhelming you with too much of each thing (like too much dialog or reading documents). Graphics, sound, story all good. It also had no problem with my ultrawide monitor which is usually the case with older titles. Only change I had to make with my settings is to set my monitor setting in nVidia Control Panel so that Monitor Technology was set to Fixed Refresh (it got rid of some flickering in the game). There are many other titles I usually have to use this setting for so it's no issue to me. I highly recommend this game.
I hate this game and love this game . I live in the horror genre when it comes to the movie world . I don't like living in it in the gaming world LMAO . But I do it anyway for my community who enjoys watching me suffer . The Outlast games are terrifying , I'm going to scream one way or another LOL . It's so different being immersed into the story into the game as a the person playing versus being the watcher or it being a movie . IDK what it is , but it HITS different and I hate it in an enjoyable way . Outlast is a game that makes me takes breaks because the anxiety is insane . IRL it's impossible to scare me , but Outlast wins , it get me every time . I applaud Red Barrels for excellent writing , visuals and sound affects . Excellent scary gaming experience .
10/10 game. Very scary.
A lil backstory... I got this game for the first time back in 2022, but I was so freaked out that I ended up refunding it. Decided to give it another shot and repurchased it… well, now I can’t refund it because I accidentally crossed the 2 hour mark. So, I’m stuck playing this game.
Now, coming to the game... It scares the crap out of me. It took me about 17 hours just to get to the sewers chapter, and that’s on normal mode. The fear factor has definitely stretched out the playtime. I’m guessing it’ll take me another 20 hours to reach the end. I’m not sure if I’ll finish the game or if the game will finish me.
Its ok ,mainly hide and seek,if you sprint on the correct path you can skip some chase sequences
Not too scary,a little bit puzzling at times
Battaries die too quickly but at least you can have a lot of them by searching a bit
Story isnt too long
Would recommend buying on sale
But the plot is stupid,one Superman "Journalist" going for hide and seek in a mental asylum full of psychos and at the beginning and later down the line doesnt try to escape once especially when he saw the first corpses,thought it would be a good idea to run away from literal Lunatic Mutants,face off an literal Superman ghost and become its Host ,in all it doesnt make sense ,Also nobody from the outside world comes to check in,i get it its an game but i laughted about this concept mid game and it took me out of the "Horror Enviroment"
Truly the best horror game experience ever. It was horrifying all the way until the end and I enjoyed everything. Thumbs up up up
A pretty good game despite its age. I swear it's still scary if you play it in an environment where there are no distractions. Recommended
I started Outlast a few times, never getting past the opening area, until my partner wanted to watch me play it. It took around 3-4 hours to complete, and I had a good time with it. Although I didn't find it overwhelmingly scary at any point, there were some moments, and it did always remain eerie and immersive.
I'll probably revisit it to master the gameplay and explore more of the lore, which I only scratched the surface of this time around. It's not a long game unless you're tackling it on Insane difficulty, but it's a solid experience overall.
An atmospheric horror that you immerse yourself in. As for how scary the game is, I wouldn't say it's a straight 10 out of 10 since there's nothing creepy or scary, but the atmosphere is just gorgeous and makes you feel tense. The disadvantages of this game are that it takes 3 hours for the first time, but as a person with 100 hours in this game, it also took 2. Any fear goes away after 10 minutes of playing. Some flaws. Slightly awkward controls.
I used to watch my fav Thai youtuber playin' it. (castby9arm iykyk!) Now I get to play it- lol it was quite intense for me but nothing that I couldn't handle. So 10/10 would try to finding my bestie inside of here if she was kidnapped by Murkoff Corp. and made her turn into the Walrider. <333
//also I'm sooo hype bout the new movie too!!! I hope to see Miles and Waylon in there! jajaja

All review scores are indicative of my personal enjoyment of the game and are not meant to be taken into consideration for the quality of the reviewed game(s). A negative review means I genuinely came away from a game feeling as if I had wasted my time.
It is one of the games that I think is very pretentious in its category. I have mad respect for the faint-hearted people who managed to see end of the game. It was one of a kind experience for me. I will try other games of this series as well.
one of the best horror games that I've played and one of a few that got me genuinely shitting my pants. It was worth every cent.
Replayed it again for the 4th time.
Still good as it was back when it released.
Very very gud.
Miles is a Joestar confirmed
I just finished the game. I might sound stupid, but nothing will ever change my mind about how the one part in the beginning where you need to turn on the power in the basement is the most tense part of the game. Hear me out, first: it is a damn claustrophobic room filled with cobwebs and corpses. Secondly, not the best spot to put a sick-minded monkey with a baseball bat. And third, it is the only actually dangerous part that you have to play with NO EXPERIENCE at all as your first run.
The whole ambience disencourages you to do what you have to do, all including the constant reminder that you're running out of batteries (vital for the game experience, I have no idea what happens when they run out), a quite annoying amount of requirements (2 gas pumps and a switch before pressing one last button) to complete the objective (unfair, if you consider it to be one of, if not the largest list of requirements you'll find in the entire game), and NO prior knowledge of the room's space summed by having to solely use night vision to guide yourself in there. The fact that the lunatics can notice your presence pretty easily with any noise and see your silhouette in the pure darkness, all make you a hopeless victim of any noise you make by walking over the wet floor.
This kind of setting is BRUTAL to beginners, and that's what made me stuck in the beginning. Of course, later on I managed to have progress, I even developed a strategy: running like crazy and do what you have to do until you're noticed, then try to get out of the sight of the chasers, saving a lot of gameplay time. But I didn't know how the AI worked in this game, because I never even played it (actually I played a bit of Outlast 2, but it's been 5 or 6 years), and I would pee my pants, because the guy with the bat wouldn't even see me, but somehow got suspicious of me behind some boxes. Not even mentioning how I went crazy when I found out he could check the hiding spots, I would hide in a locker and he would always check the other one aside. I would have had a heart attack if I found out earlier that they have a chance to check your locker.
I could spend hours on details about this one part, but there is an entire game worth of praise. This was just a small piece of what Outlast truly has to offer. I will have to ignore my hate for this game not having fighting mechanics (classic weak horror protagonist), or for the fact that the asylum bought the most inefficient battery brands ever, because it is considerably the best horror game of all time. (And of course, I will give my mind some rest before jumping into Outlast 2... phew)
Note: I just noticed it's January 1st, I beat the game in the first day of the year... Happy 2025!
Made my feet COLD each after playtime session. Still can't believe I managed to finish (or should i say, survive?) both Outlast and the DLC.
This is a MUST for all horror lovers out there.
Normally I am not a horror game guy, but being chased by a pig, a doctor, naked men, ghosts, and psychotic patients really did something on me. This game is amazing and I would check it out.
Amazing horror experience. Extremely fluid movement, interesting survival horror mechanics, dozens of intense horror set pieces, and an amazing ever evolving story. A horror classic, 9.5/10.
This is probably my favorite horror game to play, especially for speed running. Although some speed run routes are kinda hard to learn, they are very fun to do and it is smooth is you can do it properly. Even without speed running, this game is awesome.
Absolutely fantastic! Great story and memorable characters, Outlast is worth playing again and again!
A fun game for what it is. You do have to die quite a bit until you get familiar with the levels, but apart from that, it makes great use of music and setting. That said, I am incredibly salty about how many times I got jumpscared!
Outlast is definitely one of my favorite games! I highly recommend it. I also recommend the DLC, but I'd play it after finishing Outlast. I love the story and all of the characters are unique and memorable!
I feel like there's definitely filler in the main game which can be a bit annoying if I'm being honest, but the DLC hardly has any. Seriously, if you love survival horror games where you have to evade and hide from the antagonists and you like or don't mind a first person perspective, give this a go! It's clear Red Barrells put a lot of care and time into this game and the DLC. I love the graphics and how the game looks as well.
If you're still unsure, then watch people play this game on YouTube, that's how I found it and decided I wanted to play it. This game is *so* worth it if you love horror games.
Outlast is an exhilarating game that combines a gripping narrative with challenging gameplay. The puzzles are intricate and require careful thought, which adds to the overall difficulty. Despite my frequent failures and the frustration that comes with dying repeatedly, I find myself thoroughly enjoying the experience. The tension and atmosphere keep me engaged, making each attempt to progress feel rewarding. Great job, devs!
This is one of the best horror games ever made. If you enjoy this game, you should play the rest of the games in the franchise, they all give you almost the same experiences as this game. 10/10 game
outlast has to be one of my favourite games of all time like it scares the shit outta me but i love it very much. also it has to be the first hororr game that i have completed! its awsome! please play it
I thought it would be scarier.
The enemies are more so a hindrance then an actual threat.
There are a few cheap jumpscares.
Its also really short, I was expecting it to take up my weekend, not half a friday night.
In conclusion I would say It might be worth buying on a 90% discount, if you get scared easy.
In my opinion this is the best and scariest horror game I've played.
The game has a lot of good jumpscares, but not too much to the point where they're predictable. The core gameplay is pretty similar just in different environments. Flip these two switches to get this main one. Or find this key to open this door. Other than that though the atmosphere and environments feel absolutely amazing. The story is great. After playing it for a while, and depending on the difficulty though, the tense parts do get less tense once you find out if they guy chasing you catches you, he doesnt immediately kill you. It takes a few hits so its okay to get hit once during the process. It's mostly a stealth game in a horror atmosphere and i love it. I still highly recommend.
A thrilling game that scares me when I open the loading screen. The jump scares are amazing, I had to wipe a few times.
I used to play this game with a buddy back in 2007/2008.
I loved revisiting it, it was a lot of fun and genuinely scary.
Great game for the price.
Father Martin had me running up and down the halls for him and for what. Overall i enjoyed jolting through the cellars escaping the grasp of the big bald hunka hunka man.
The best horror i ever played definitly i recomend this game.The start is scary but when you get further it will be less scary (trust me,game becomes repetable its the only bad thing about this game).If it is on sale definitly buy it(if you have strong mind).
Пройдя Outlast я с уверенностью могу сказать что это не история о том как Майлз сбегал из дурки, нет это история о упорстве и отваге Криса что так сильно хотел поймать своего "парасёночка" что и стало причиной смерти героя. Покойся с миром Крис - ты навсегда в наших сердцах!
Great game, came to this after playing Trials to see how it all stated. Can see where alot of the mechanics from Trails came from.
But unlike trials it's good to have a narrative!
good part:
good graphic even for an old games
nice timing for jumpscare scene's
you sh*it your self if you play late night
bad parts:
no mini map or map (you have no idead where you are)
nothing to do except walking
no stats upgrade like running speed or stealth
you cant fight
Literally the best horror game i've ever played. I felt like I was going to have a stress induced heart attack from the amount of pressure walking around with a camcorder IN THE DARK. I'm low key a puss when it comes to scary games, and I definitely had to take some breaks. But I loved this game pls get it. pimp
I fully beat Outlast, and I’m not sure if I should be proud or if I need therapy for the stress. This game is absolutely amazing, especially for when it was released, in the best and worst ways possible.
I don’t know why we willingly went into an insane asylum with no reception to the outside world, but hey, you do you. It made for an incredible experience filled with terrifying moments. The chases are heart-stopping because, guess what? You can’t fight back. Your only options are to run or hide!
Getting all the achievements was brutal. The hardest one was finishing the game on Insane mode. No saves, no mistakes, just raw panic for hours on end. I don’t think my heart or brain has fully recovered, especially after the Walrider section.
That said, this game is not for everyone. It’s gory, disturbing, and relentlessly stressful. But if you’re a horror fan, it’s a must-play.
I’m not touching this game again anytime soon, but I’m super glad I got to experience it.
10/10
Outlast – A Heart-Stopping Horror Experience:
