Red Barrels is bringing a new limited-time Halloween Event to its multiplayer horror game, The Outlast Trials, emphasising upping the scares.
It sees the indie developer taking even further inspiration from the real-life brain-washing experiments in ’50s and ’60s Montreal.
Program Geister brings new trial variations, new tasks, minigames, challenges, limited-time player rewards, and improved jumpscares.
The Outlast Trials Geister Halloween Event Start and End Dates
The event takes place from October 29 until November 12, 2024. A second part will begin on November 12 and culminate on November 26, 2024.
