What we all need is more suffering. No, wait, I have that the wrong way round. What we all need is less suffering – except when we play The Outlast Trials. Then, suffering is expected and even encouraged. Putting players into a series of psychological experiments over and over again, asking them to run and hide from an odd roster of murderers might be considered sadistic, but its fans are lapping it up. With a 93% positive review rating on Steam, The Outlast Trials is making waves in all the right ways – and with a big new update it just got even weirder, more sadistic, and better.
