The Outlast Trials – Official Invasion Trailer

Escape was the injury. Relapse was triage. Now… it’s time for the surgery. The Outlast Trials introduces the Invasion Experimental Therapy, which was announced today at IGN Fan Fest with a gruesome new trailer illustrating the new, PvP Invasion Mode. The centrepiece of the upcoming major update in Season 4, Invasion Mode will allow players to enter the Trials of their fellow Reagents, disguising themselves as Imposters and wielding brutally effective knives to sabotage and slay their opponents. Combining unique co-op strategy with close-quarters combat, the new Invasion mode heightens the suspense—and the violence—of The Outlast Trials on October 21st, just in time for Halloween.

You are not your brother’s keepers: you are your father’s children. And a father gains the trust of his children by trusting them himself. That’s why the ever-gracious Easterman has provided his beloved children with the tools they need to truly sympathize with one another: knives, security cameras, and disguises made of human flesh. After all, sometimes you have to hurt the ones you love to help them get better… and in the world of The Outlast Trials, harm and healing always go hand-in-hand.

Accessed via the Sleep Room Terminals, the new Invasion Mode allows players to join as either a Reagent or an Imposter. Only a limited number of Imposters can invade any given Trial, but while the others wait, they can be the eyes and ears of their murderous teammates. Each Imposter will get a chance to invade the Trial, as their peers succeed in their sabotage…or die trying.

Lords of Ravage is Now Available on Steam

Lords of Ravage is now available on Steam! A tactical RPG with roguelite elements set in a dark fantasy world, presented in pixel 2.5D style by developer Synthetic Domain and publisher 101XP. Here you don’t play as the hero, but as the Lord of Ravage, commanding an army of followers and crushing enemies in brutal turn-based battles to achieve your ultimate goal. Lay waste to kingdoms, become a threat to the world, and make all tremble in fear.

Heroes will not save this world. They will fall, like all the others. Choose one of the Lords of Ravage and carve your way through the ruins of kingdoms. Tactics, calculation, merciless turn-based battles — destroy your enemies and leave nothing but ashes behind. Seek the artifact that can warp fate itself and claim what is rightfully yours.

In Lords of Ravage, you command one of three powerful Lords — each with their own story, unique style of warfare, and loyal servants. This is not just a change of appearance, but a change in strategy and tactics.

Key gameplay features:

  • A unique approach to waging war. Play as one of three Lords, each with their own story, philosophy, and style of destruction. Begin with Berold, the ruthless warlord whose steel knows no mercy, and as you progress, unlock two more: Zavris, mistress of forbidden magic, and Azneya, the fierce demoness who leads her abyssal hordes into battle. Their darkness is in your hands — but only you decide whether it will lead to triumph… or ruin.
  • Tactical turn-based battles. At the core of the game are turn-based battles, where you act not just as a commander but as the embodiment of strategy and control. Manage your army and its abilities with care. Recruit loyal allies or bribe greedy mercenaries with gold. It is up to you who is allowed to fight under your banner. Combine warriors from different factions and crush your enemies not only with strength, but also with the curses of ancient Edicts.Threat system. Your presence will not go unnoticed. The more you ravage the land, the stronger your enemies will become. Every path your army takes raises the Threat meter. Decide how to move through the regions — cautiously, taking only what you need, or scouring everything and facing ever greater resistance.
  • Powers that change the course of battle. Grow in strength as you burn and pillage enemy lands, taking their gold to improve your warriors or hire new ones. Absorb the power of magical sources and uncover hidden knowledge in the form of Edicts — global abilities that can strengthen your troops or weaken your foes. Relics found across the regions will open new possibilities, capable of changing the outcome of battle. Experiment with artifacts to empower your forces or turn the tide in unexpected ways.
  • A variety of enemies. Every fight is a challenge. Heroes cannot be defeated by brute force alone — they have their own classes, abilities, and tactics. They will adapt, grow fiercer, and fight harder, all because of you. Face a wide range of enemies with unique mechanics — each with their own strengths and weaknesses that define their behavior in combat. Ruin their plans and make sure every foe who dares to oppose you falls.
  • Base upgrades. The citadel of the Lord of Ravage is not only a refuge from endless war, but a forge of power. Here you construct buildings that strengthen your army and unlock new opportunities. Each faction has its own style, unique structures, and advantages. By developing your base, you lay the foundation for future victories — and the downfall of your enemies.

Today we have shared only a small part, but even more exciting content and discoveries await you in the game. Walk the path of each Lord of Ravage and discover how their story ends — in triumph or in ruin.
