The Outlast Trials is finally out after being anticipated by fans of the franchise. On the 18th of May, the game hit the shelves of Steam Early Access, which essentially means that the game is yet to be polished and made perfect before the full release. Speaking about the game, it’s yet another classic Outlast game with all the horror and nightmares that come along with playing these games.
