Scare yourself again with the Outlast 2 demo now out

For those who were brave enough to play the original Outlast game, you might be happy to know that the demo for Outlast 2 is here, available on the PC through Steam, and also on the Xbox One and PS4.

Outlast 2 will be arriving in Q1 2017, but the developer is providing a nice surprise for Halloween, with the Outlast 2 demo available through to November 1. Outlast 2 is described as:

No conflict is ever black and white. But once the dust has settled, the victors get to decide who was right and who was wrong. Who is good and who is evil. Human nature pushes us to extremes of violence and depravity, which we then justify by divine inspiration and a promise of paradise to come. Horror rises from desperation and blind faith. Outlast 2 will test your faith, pushing players to a place where going mad is the only sane thing to do.

You are Blake Langermann, a cameraman working with your wife, Lynn. The two of you are investigative journalists willing to take risks and dig deep to uncover the stories no one else will dare touch. You're following a trail of clues that started with the seemingly impossible murder of a pregnant woman known only as Jane Doe.

The investigation has lead you miles into the Arizona desert, to a darkness so deep that no one could shed light upon it, and a corruption so profound that going mad may be the only sane thing to do.
