    Outlast 2 does not quite reach even the average moments of the first game. However, what saves this is Red Barrels' talented artists and voice actors.

    Thanks to its ambiance, sound environment and plot, this is a good effort at creating a horror-themed game for the Nintendo Switch. It is not as immersive as it should be and it becomes inevitable to compare it to the original but Outlast 2 still has assets to allow it to stand on its own.

    The oppressing setting of Outlast 2 and its skillful use of all horror codes injects a level of tension rarely achieved in a survival game.

    Outlast 2 does little to elevate it beyond the original Outlast. What results is a well put together, but ultimately predictable, and even generic horror experience. At times the story stumbles into masterpiece territory, but then quickly course corrects back into a generic evil cult plotline.

It's prettier, scarier, longer and more interesting. It does basically everything better than its predecessor: the levels are bigger, the enemies are smarter, and the story is more articulate. And yes, it's more terrifying, if that's even possible. The Switch version of Outlast 2 is not too different from the PC and console versions released last year.… Full Review »
