Originally scheduled for this autumn, the developers made the decision to postpone the game’s release in order to ensure it meets their mission of bringing players “the best, most terrifying, most fulfilling experiences possible.”
The team sympathized with fans of the highly-anticipated game, adding:
The second installment in the spine-tingling series follows cameraman Blake Langermann as he searches for his missing wife in the Arizona desert. And much like its predecessor, the game aims to leave us all having nightmares, with the Red Barrels team promising “Outlast 2 will scare the crap out of you.”
Outlast 2 will be available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC when it finally releases in 2017.
