A new limited-event is here for The Outlast Trials to bring back in another horrible program from the past of Outlast
It looks as if we have a nice and new project to dive into with The Outlast Trials just in time for Halloween and the future holiday season to keep it all gory. Starting today, October 29th, Red Barrels has opened up the latest program for the game to test us all further with Program Geister. A new one that will keep us further on our toes and also worried about the others we are playing with in the game. All with the over-the-top gore that Outlast fans love in the game. It is only running for about a month, so it is limited, but given that it is split into two parts, that might catch us all further into the madness of this classic but new program in the game.
To get into the specifics, this new event for The Outlast Trials will run from October 29th with Part 1 ending on November 12th. There will be no downtime after that as on November 12th until the 26th, Part two will pick up to keep the horror going right into the American Thanksgiving holiday. It will have us harvesting more organs and keeping an eye out for other imposters in the game, along with other updates coming for The Outlast Trials. There will be some new jump scares, Sleep Room minigames, angrier enemies, and a slew of new tasks to complete during the trial. Have a look at the basics in action just a little lower down with a full list of updates right after all of that. I do hope we are all ready for this program and the others still to come…
The Outlast Trials — Geister Limited-Time Event
Program Geister is in full swing in The Outlast Trials 🎃 The Skinner Man is morphing and with further testing, we’re hoping to find out how our Reagents dreams are slipping into their terrifying reality… Gather yourselves and survive the Trials!
Program Geister features new Trial variators, new tasks, new limited-time player rewards, improved jumpscares, a new MK-Challenge, and a new lobby minigame. Part 1 takes place from October 29th–November 12th, and Part 2 follows from November 12th–November 26th.
- New MK-Challenge “Eliminate the Past” – Shred documents detailing Murkoff’s history of war crimes to secure your escape.
- Improved Jumpscares – When your sanity wanes, receive a visit from the Skinner Man…
New Program Geister Variators:
- EXTRACT ORGAN SAMPLES. Find deceased Reagents and extract organ samples for analysis.
- HALLUCINATIONS? Are they side effects from Murkoff’s therapies, or is something more nefarious at play?
- MORE IMPOSTERS. More Imposters in the Trial: Violent adversaries that look like your teammates and mimic their nameplates.
- NO PLAYER NAMES. Player names are hidden, making Imposters more potent and harder to detect. (Intensive and Psychosurgery Difficulties)
- ENRAGED ENEMIES. Enemies are on high alert! (Intensive and Psychosurgery Difficulties)
- New Tasks: Tasks are divided into two parts, with each task rewarding Event Tokens, Stamps, and a random Geister item. Complete Part 1 of the Geister tasks to unlock Part 2.
- New Sleep Room Minigame: Tennis, the first digital video game created by Murkoff and offered exclusively to facility residents.
- New “Geister” Event Catalog: With event currency earned during Program Geister, players can unlock unique cosmetics for their Reagents and their sleep chambers.
