Jumping right in, even the demo's opening gamma adjustment screen is scary.
The Outlast series now shifts away from an abusive asylum to a backwoods hillbilly community. Out of nowhere, we got the chance to jump right into the terror and get a hint of what's going on with the storyline. It's a tragedy that we won't actually get to play the game on Halloween as expected, with Outlast 2 now having been officially pushed back to Q1 2017, but Red Barrels alleviated that pain of loss somewhat by quietly dropping a playable demo on Steam last night.
