His breaths huff in my ears as he becomes more panicked, and bodiless whispers assault my senses, sending shivers down my spine. At one point, I direct him straight into a cactus and it actually does damage, slowing him down for a second while he recovers. He screams for his wife, and he hears horrified shrieks in return.īlake runs. After a while, though, they begin to chase him, intent on killing him. Blake spots townsfolk as he searches the houses and shacks, though at first they simply stare at him with glowing green night-vision eyes and then fade silently into the night. Crosses hang from the doorways and under one canopy, flies swarm around a pile of blood and dismembered limbs. The tiny, scattered town is rife with religious imagery and bloodshed. Outlast is a brilliantly panicky franchise, and from what I've seen, the sequel proudly continues this trend. This is on top of the constant, frantic hunt for Lynn and Blake's desperate attempts to outrun the violent demons and townsfolk occupying the small desert town. Also mirroring the first installment, night vision quickly drains the camera, sending Blake on a constant, frantic hunt for fresh batteries. Just as in the original Outlast ( which I adored), Blake can use his camcorder's night vision to see in the dark, lending a majority of the game an unearthly, eerie green glow. Some of the buildings are dimly lit, but other areas are completely engulfed in blackness.
Outlast 2 lynn series#
From a first-person perspective, Blake begins scouring the land for Lynn, eventually running into a series of ramshackle houses and barns. Blake survives - glasses, camera and all - and cries out for Lynn in the midnight desert landscape. The demo opens with Blake and Lynn speaking over a helicopter's communication system, but their words quickly turn to screams as the copter spins out and crashes into the desert below. It's gorgeous (when it's not infested with murderous demons). The search leads them to the Arizona desert's northern Supai region, an area nestled in the Grand Canyon and filled with towering mountains, rust-colored dirt, prickly cacti, massive waterfalls and sparse yet hearty vegetation. Outlast 2 stars investigative journalists Blake and Lynn Langermann, a husband-and-wife team who set out on a mission to uncover the truth behind the murder of a pregnant woman known only as Jane Doe.
