Outlast

As investigative journalist Miles Upshur, you break into Mount Massive Asylum after receiving an anonymous tip about the secretive Murkoff Corporation. Inside the remote Colorado facility, you try to survive and learn what has happened there. You have no weapons or means to fight back. Find your way through the asylum, sneak past hostile inhabitants, hide in shelters, and run when discovered. A camcorder with night vision helps you navigate dark areas, but its batteries are limited. Explore the facility and record events with the camera while finding documents and notes that reveal more about the asylum and its secrets. The journey also includes pursuit sequences and obstacles to navigate as you search for a way forward.

Investigative journalist Miles Upshur enters Mount Massive Asylum, using a night-vision camcorder to evade its patients and uncover its secrets.
