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.

not scary but angry because of insane difficulty
Outlast Review After 100% Achievements on Steam 🩸👁️
Completing Outlast at 100% is like surviving a nightmare that refuses to end. It’s an unrelenting descent into madness where fear lurks around every corner. Outlast isn’t just a horror game; it’s a test of nerves, forcing you to confront terror with nothing but your instincts and a flickering night-vision camera.
Achieving every achievement was a heart-pounding experience, as each step deeper into Mount Massive Asylum revealed more horrors and panic-filled chases. However, despite being an unforgettable horror masterpiece, the game has its flaws.
Final Score: 85/100
Positives:
Atmosphere: The game nails its terrifying setting—dark, grim, and oozing with dread. The asylum feels alive, and the tension never lets up.
Sound Design: Bone-chilling sound effects and music amplify the fear, making even silence unbearable.
Pacing: Nonstop tension with perfectly placed jump scares and chase sequences that leave your heart racing.
Negatives:
Repetitive Gameplay: While the fear is real, the core gameplay of hiding, running, and finding objectives becomes repetitive, especially in later sections.
Lack of Combat: While being defenseless enhances horror, the inability to fight back can feel limiting and frustrating at times.
Predictable Patterns: After a while, enemy behavior and scripted scares become predictable, slightly reducing the shock factor.
Conclusion:
Outlast delivers one of the most intense horror experiences in gaming, pushing your survival instincts to their limit. Yet, its repetitive mechanics and predictability in later stages hold it back from perfection. Still, it remains a masterclass in atmosphere and psychological horror—a game that proves “sometimes, the scariest monsters are the ones you can’t fight.”
Final Rating: 85/100 🩸👁️
first-person survival horror game that has garnered significant attention for its intense atmosphere, immersive storytelling, and innovative gameplay mechanics. Set in the eerie confines of Mount Massive Asylum, players take on the role of investigative journalist Miles Upshur as he uncovers the dark secrets hidden within the asylum's walls.
What's so scary in this game? Just completed the game and I didn't even feel a shred of Horror. Will write the remaining review after I change my pants.
you can fuck off with this game yeno proper scary for first time... second time and maybe even third great idea for a game and has no cheap scares.
As a person who doesn't really get scared by horror games, this game could be a bit frightening at times.
This game is a great horror game. I love the atmosphere created by the game. It does catch you off guard a lot and the gore is top notch. The only problem with this game is that it's very repetitive with the bosses in the game. But overall, pretty decent game.
4/5, Great Game
an amazing horror game. the people in the asylum are grotesque asl which added to the creepy vibe of the game, some moments got me on my toes a few times too
very good not a fan of the ending but it gets better with dlc
Great game, genuinely puts me on edge. I thought I explored a bunch and there's still so much left for me to find. Can't wait to play the dlc one day
I beat this on playstation a while ago, really good horror game! Very fun to play around October.
This game is very nice and theres lots of nice people to meet there. You should definitely try them as they can make you happy and laugh. I dont know what the creator is on about being a horror game but its more like a freindly kids type game!
10/10
This game is a full on masterpiece, everything is hand crafted with detail and its amazing. keep up the good work!
Симулятор деда с цепью и перманентно отключенного света, короче говоря игра дерьмо
Loved the game. Aways heard of it as a classic and i see why. Amazing level design, scary and eerie atmosphere, lots of chasings and jumpscares and interesting tasks/puzzles. never feels boring or too difficult.
It's a short horror game, but man is it one that scared me. As with most horror games, being caught is not the scary part. This game does chasing, juking, and hiding from your adversaries very well. The majority of the terror this game has comes from the player not knowing if there is a threat looming just beyond your line of sight. The sound design, scripted sequences, and story all wrap this game up very nicely. I am excited to play the sequel as well as Outlast Trials. I would recommend this to all fans of horror.
One of my dreams to play. This was really the BEST HORROR GAME I have ever experienced so far I wish they could add a Movie Production for this one, I LOVE IT!
Good game, I have never played a game where I have been scared just walking around not knowing when a jump scare was gonna happen or when the monster would show up. This game gave me that experience of not being able to put my gaurd down. 7.5/10
best horror game ive ever played on fonum grave
although i didnt like the ending, my goat deserved better than that
Absolute classic. In my opinion, set the gold standard for what a triple AAA horror game should be like.
I bought this game because of Outlast Trials.
I bought Trials not too long ago after watching people play it and how fun it looked. I don't have a lot of hours on it, but wanting to support Red Barrels (& because Trials was/is awesome), I bought the 'Trinity Bundle.' I figured, "well, I somewhat know the game play loop of Trials, I probably got the hang of this!"
Little did I know... how wrong I would be.
Right off the bat, the game is dark. Not just thematically, but visually. In Trials, it's very clear that there are light, and dark areas. In Outlast? Even the areas with light can be juuuust dim enough to make you have to pull up your camera just to see.
Don't even get me started about being chased. I knew Outlast was a horror game... I knew that... but my lord I have never been more terrified of getting chased ever. In Trials, if you're playing with other people, they can help you out; you can use rigs. In Outlast? You quite literally have nothing but your camera. You HAVE to run and hide away from the inmates. I was basically so tense every single time there was an opportunity to have to deal with an inmate.
Speaking of tension, even the ambiance kept me on edge too! Outlast does a great job of making you feel like you aren't safe even when you technically ARE safe. Adding on to the fact that you're basically walking/running almost exclusively through close hallways and rooms. I thought I was about to get chased or get jump scared almost every time I opened a door. And even though there was one time I got confused on what to do, the game is still just linear enough to point you in the direction you're supposed to go. I think story-wise, the game was awesome. I, unfortunately, am not that good at critical thinking to completely comment on that, but I thought it was great!
I just finished the vanilla game not too long ago, and just started Whistleblower a little bit ago (taking a break though.) But I already know that it's going to be an awesome time, and I can't wait to play Outlast 2 after that. It's going to make Outlast Trials feel even more awesome.
Thanks, Red Barrels, for making these awesome games! I don't normally play single-player games, but if it's a Red Barrels single-player game, I'll definitely play it!
Edit: Just finished Whistleblower, and good lord it was amazing. I did enjoy it just a little bit better than the original, but still amazing in its own right. Now time for Outlast 2!
To be honest, whatever horror games that do not allow the main protagonist to fight back or at least do something against enemies are not really my cup of tea; Outlast is also one of them. In this game, you cannot do anything but run and hide. You cannot do some basic things, such as throwing things at your enemies or whatever needs to be done to slow them down, except closing doors. However, if you like this kind of horror concept where someone or something keeps chasing you, and you can only run and hide, Outlast is one of the best, I can tell you that. The story is not surprising; you know what has happened or will be happening quickly after playing for a while. The environments are well-designed, contributing to players' immersion in their atmosphere.
One of the bad parts you may need to consider is that the game is very dark and that it forces you to switch between night vision mode and normal vision throughout the entire game, providing the possibility of having some eyestrains. So, if you have some visioning problems, I strongly don't recommend playing this game. This, plus the fact that if you have a poor sense of direction (topographical disorientation), this game becomes crazy difficult for you to survive.
Fun game, if you don't take into account the screamers and scary locations. I played it for the first time, I didnt know that this game had a story, and it's quite interesting. DLC is a cool logical addition to the main part.
Amazing cocks. Absolutely disgusted by the Lack of Women in the Female Ward or rather the Game at all. That added to my Horror.
Truly a goated game in a horror category..
The only thing scary was running out of batteries :,),
It's very scary at the beginning. I played it for about 20 minutes before logging out
it may be the best horror game ever <3333333333333
The harder I try to escape, the further I get into this god awful place. Like fighting a tar pit. They've been torturing people in the basement, and by method. Written on the wall- "FINGERS FIRST. THEN BALLS. THEN TONGUE
Muy buen juego de terror, las escenas en las cuales tienes que meterte en una sala completamente oscura con la cámara son muy tensos y dan miedo. Definitivamente es un obligatorio para cualquiera que le gusten los survival horror.
By far the scariest game to ever be made. 10/10 horror factor. Lived up to the hype. Masterpiece.
Man when i tell you this game is amazing am not lying, this game is just great, whether its the gore or the guy making love to a headless corpse, this game will genuinely make you fear for your damn life, like now a days horror games aren't doing the scarys anymore which is disappointing, but the other reviews are not lying about the horror aspect.
this game is worth every penny, BUY IT and don't miss out this is probably ONE OF THE BEST HORROR GAMES OUT THERE, even though it may be short (took me about 3 hours to complete it) its worth and especially if you also buy the DLC, now that't just another yummy which i also highly recommend as it gives a interesting prospective which i wont spoil.
Whatever you think on horror games you should try nevertheless, i hope this swayed you in some form or way but please keep in mind that it might not be for you and that this is my first review.
Great game, greater scars. Love the story and can't wait to play the second game after beating the DLC to see where the sotry goes from here. 5/5.
Bought the base game. Played it. Finished it. Liked it a lot. Completed an insane run of base game. Bought the DLC. Played it. Finished it. Liked it a lot. Completed an insane run of DLC.
The Outlast story is a bit confusing to follow but playing the game was a really fun and good horror experience!
Playing this game on the hardest difficulty was a type of fun I haven't experienced in a while. Would highly recommend (or just play nightmare instead). 9/10 (-1 because of bugs)
A classic survivor horror game that has greatly influenced the story developments of newer games. Not only has outlast had a massive impact on the industry, it still holds up strongly 10 years after it's release.
The experience is enjoyable and the camera mechanics heighten the experience, allowing you to explore dark areas while managing battery life and running from threats. The gameplay loop is predictable but enjoyable regardless.
Personally, I found it not as scary as others often advertise. It was scary at times but suffers in the same way all horror games do of familiarity significantly reducing scare factor. Despite this, the sound and map design still gives some incredible moments between some more calm aspects. I found myself startled at times, or maybe the occasional jump but it isn't the nightmare inducing game that I often hear discussed.
For the content and infamy, outlast is definitely worth a play-through but I'd recommend waiting for a sale as it's a little pricey and is often on sale.
This game is so good. The building and other areas being so dark definitely was spooky, my favorite villain here was Richard Trager I had fun seeing him chop off Upshur's fingers, his overall insanity behavior and him chasing me until his death. This horror game is a 10/10 for me, no complaints.
Finally finished this game after it sat in my library for ages, lol
Now I truly understand why Outlast is so highly praised. It gave me an unforgettable experience with its intense chase sequences and relentless horror. Usually, I’m not a fan of horror games like this, but I found myself completely hooked and genuinely enjoyed every terrifying moment.
I first played this game 10 years ago. I was so scared I ended up using CheatEngine to get unlimited battery power for the night vision because I spent so much time hiding with it on. I didn't get very far.
I came back to it exactly a decade later. My old saves were perfectly preserved in the steam cloud. It's done. I finally finished it. I can rest now, my purpose in life is done.
the game’s atmosphere is so tense that you’ll feel your heart racing throughout the experience.
the asylum’s design and audio effects are pure horror brilliance. 💀
This game is fine but has quite a few problems.
Scripted movements, such as vaulting, climbing, and jumping, are all clunky and unreliable. This can be incredibly frustrating in chapters 4-5, which rely heavily on these movements on short notice. You may find that you will struggle to get away from enemies due to these problems, and that can be incredibly frustrating for a game that leverages the run-and-hide mechanic so often. If there are barriers to this gameplay cycle that feel unfair or disadvantaged, then the deaths feel less deserved. Because of this issue, movement in the game feels very dissatisfying and, at times, frustrating.
Another issue with this game is that it goes on for too long. I am glad I finished it because the final chapter is very well made and feels unique and exciting, both story-wise and gameplay-wise. However, this game could and should have been two chapters shorter. There are far too many "New objective: find this thing. Also, there is a guy with a lead pipe walking around; watch out for him. Oops, the thing you wanted fell/was moved/you fell. New new objective, find a new way to this thing” moments. I think there are four objectives back to back that are all basically "Find a way to get to Father Martin." This is unnecessary, poorly paced, and kills the tension the game works so hard to build.
This game also struggles to be scary after the first few jumpscares (wheelchair guy was pretty much the only one that really got me). The gameplay loop is very formulaic, and after you have experienced around 45 minutes you can tell where the jumpscares are and how they will pop out at you. The game startles you in all of the wrong ways. It utilizes tension and well-designed chase mechanics poorly, instead opting for loud noises and flashy pictures. You don’t feel the anticipatory fear that you get in games like Amnesia: The Dark Descent or Phasmophobia. There is no rise; instead, you are simply caught off-guard by a loud noise, and you instinctively jump. This game is not scary in the way a good horror game should be; it is intense. It keeps your heart rate up by screaming in your ear, not by making you feel in danger.
The enemies don’t do much to assist with this issue either. Many of the enemies are generic, stupid, and repetitive. They are also all slower than you. You don’t need to hide to win this game; you can outrun every single enemy. If you choose to hide, the search mechanic isn’t good or interesting. The enemy will walk into the room, pick a single hiding place randomly, search there, and then leave. If you happen to be in the hiding spot they pick, it doesn’t matter because they don’t kill you. They will throw you, giving you a good 3-second headstart so you can find a new hiding place. When they reach you again, you will have completely healed, and the next throw won’t matter.
Many tout this game as the best horror game ever made. To counter, I don’t believe this game is even the best horror game released in 2013. Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs was also released in 2013, and Outlast doesn’t even stand on the same podium.
Overall the game is okay, but it is not competitive in the horror genre.
This game gives me depression. I set the brightness to max and i still cant see crap. After completing this game, i can say that nothing can scare my anymore hahaha. 10/10 would recommend to any friends
Never played the Whistleblower DLC after launch and having played that recently with a friend decided to revisit the base game too.
Pretty good mechanics even today when considering all the other run/hide horror games and it's smooth enough experience to not get frustrated by one or two hit death -> reload from checkpoint scenes, and these are quite rare unless you run yourself into a deadend.
But given the game is from 2013 the graphics and character model/animation were lot worse than what I remembered, no surprise there but for the current base price tag it's worth a minor sale buy if you like run/hide horror games.
Outlast was my first horror game, and I have to say, it was a wild ride. The atmosphere was so intense that I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I never thought I'd finish a horror game, but Outlast proved me wrong.
I've known about this game since I was 7-8 years old. I remembered binge-watching youtubers playing it thinking "Gosh I don't have the balls to play horror games". Now I'm 18 years old and I just finished the game in 4 hours. Life is so weird. I love being a kid. And I think my older self deserves to be a kid once again. Thank you for all of the good memories. And thank you for making me realize that I, still, don't have the balls to play horror games.
This is genuinely the first and only horror game that has ever risen my anxiety. I've played it so many times over the course of the years and it still makes me jump. I enjoy every aspect of the characters presented. This game is right up on my favorite horror games list right next to Alien Isolation <3
This game is a classic survival horror game. After playing through the game a second time now on PC the main frustrating part is not knowing where to go. Mainly in the DLC, I have never played and it I have troubles finding where to go and with more frequent chase scenes and enemies make it more of a nuisance to get through the game.
Other than that little nit pick the game it amazing and I would 100% recommend for someone looking to get into survival horror.
Outlast is an nightmare in the best way possible. You’re armed with nothing but a camera, which somehow makes the whole thing even scarier. The game is pure chaos, filled with creepy sounds, horrifying enemies, and places you definitely don’t want to be. It’s all about running, hiding, and hoping the thing chasing you doesn’t find you.
The atmosphere is unmatched, and the story is as disturbing. If you’re into horror where every second feels like a life or death situation I recommend it.

super family friendly and educational... the part in the DLC where you are strapped to a table has a math lesson, do that part in front of your kids
Played on another platform mainly. This game is very spooky and worth the effort to beat, as the story is really interesting.

Definitely scary and has a pretty good story. This is a must play for any survival horror fans. My main problem with this game is that 99% of the time you have no idea where you are going and there's no map so you end up running around the same hallway 10 times. The night vision makes it very tension filled, but it gets very hard to see after a while especially in the part where you're running outside. There's a lot of cheap deaths in this mostly from not knowing where to go, but I'm guessing they made it that way on purpose. It does getting annoying dying 10 times in a row cause you're looking for where to go next. It's a little boring that there's no items, weapons or puzzles. It is a very good game though. I played through it in 1 sitting. The tension it creates is so good for a horror game. 8/10
