The first Outlast game has become a modern horror favorite for many gamers, combining elements of the found footage film genre with the survival-horror game. The sequel, Outlast 2, is looking to continue that tradition, but trades the asylum setting of the first game for a foreboding, wooded countryside. The Outlast 2 teaser trailer hints that it may also explore some religious themes, which is interesting and rarely visited territory for video games.
Outlast 2 is scheduled to launch this fall for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
Overkill’s The Walking Dead
The Walking Dead franchise has already enjoyed quite a bit of success in the gaming industry, with Telltale’s episodic adventure earning critical acclaim across the board. However, Payday developer Overkill is looking to do something different with Overkill’s The Walking Dead through FPS co-op gameplay. We haven’t seen much of Overkill’s take on the series just yet, but considering the pedigree of the developer, the game stands a good chance of being quite a bit better than the previous Walking Dead FPS game, Survival Instinct.
Overkill’s The Walking Dead is due for release later this year for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
Perception
BioShock and Dead Space stand as two of the best horror games of the last generation, so when developers that worked on both of those games came together to form The Deep End Games, horror fans took notice. The freshman project from The Deep End is a Kickstarter-funded game called Perception, which puts players in the role of a blind woman that has to explore a spooky mansion. Promising a story with plenty of twists and scares and a unique art style that is meant to represent echolocation, Perception has a chance to be one of the better horror experiences in 2016.
Perception is expected to release in June for PC.
