Their helicopter crashes and when Blake wakes up, his wife is missing and he finds the pilot of the helicopter skinned and therefore consequently, dead of course. Here we play as a journalist and cameraman called Blake, who along with his wife, Lynn, are investigating the mysterious murder of a pregnant woman known only as Jane Doe (a name sometimes given to protect ones true identity). The only thing that is the same is the gameplay, but more on that later. This isn’t a direct sequel in the sense that we have different characters in a different setting with no real connection to the first game.
While I don’t think Outlast 2 ever captures the highs I had during the opening sections of Outlast, it is easily the better of the two overall. But it then went a little downhill from then onwards, so I’d hoped that the second would learn from its predecessor’s mistakes, and by and large, it has. With that game, however, the first half was extremely atmospheric, scary and tense, and as such, it was shaping up to be a truly incredible game. After all, I was a fan of the first Outlast (which has also just happened to release on the Nintendo Switch). Outlast 2 was a game that I wanted to play ever since its release on other consoles, around a year ago now.
