The Outlast Trials Season 2.1 Out Now

The Outlast Trials receives a new update today, adding new twisted experiments, and new Limited-Time events that take place at Murkoff’s ever-shifting psychological prison of nightmares. Welcome to Season 2.1 of Project Breach, available as a free update for all the 3.3 million owners of The Outlast Trials on Steam, Epic, PlayStation, and Xbox stores.

A major event is starting to unfold with Amelia at its center as she attempts to take a stand against Dr. Easterman’s sick experiments, aiming to undermine his control over the Sinyala Facility. She is reaching out to the Reagents for help, admitting the road to freedom won’t be easy. But if they want a real chance to escape, they must spread the word and wait for her signal. Stay alert—her clues are out there.

As Amelia prepares to make her move, Murkoff tightens its grip, ramping up surveillance across the Sinyala Facility—under the guise of a “therapy safety measure”. Surveillance cameras now monitor select Trials.

Reagents will face disturbing new moral trials in two new MK-Challenges:

  •   Stash the Contraband

Economies based on narcotics crumble without their primary market. Steal the drugs, hide them securely, and we will let you out.

  •  Kidnap the Mistress

Prostitutes receive more honest confessions than priests. Identify the pervert by his tastes, kidnap his dominatrix, deliver her for interrogation, and we will let you out.

New Limited-Time Event: Under Surveillance & New Tasks

With Reagents playing a crucial role in Amelia’s plan, Season 2.1 introduces new Limited-Time Event as well as tasks to complete in the Trials:

  • Find the Schematics hidden in Trials to help Amelia hack the Sleep Room Terminal.
  • Locate the Broadcast Television and watch Amelia’s message before Murkoff intercepts it.
  • New Tasks: “Help me…” – Amelia is working on something big. Can you assist her by completing key tasks?

New Limited-Time Amelia Catalog

Prepare for the therapy with Amelia’s exclusive outfit Catalog, available to unlock by completing Trials and earning in-game Stamps. The catalog will only be available during the Under Surveillance Limited-Time event. Once the event ends, the catalog will be removed, and any unspent tokens will be lost

One-Year Anniversary Celebration

Join us in celebrating the one-year anniversary of welcoming Reagents into the Sinyala Facility. To mark the occasion, a special set of tasks is now available, offering exclusive anniversary rewards! Make sure to complete the tasks to claim your in-game rewards before the Tasks expire on April 22nd.

Project Lupara Deluxe Catalog – Bonus Page

For those seeking even more customization, new cosmetics are now available in the Project Lupara Deluxe Catalog. These high-value items require a significant time investment to unlock.
