'We act as if Halloween is ours': The best way to spend spooky season is within The Outlast Trials' Sinyala Facility
What better way to celebrate Halloween than by giving yourself nightmares?
Halloween has always been one of the busiest months for Red Barrels, kicking off the biggest part of the year - October, November, and the holiday season. Co-founder Philippe Morin told reporters that Red Barrels acts as if Halloween is theirs, giving the Sinyala Facility in The Outlast Trials a major sale to attract new players during the spooky season. The sale was a huge success, with the game's Steam concurrent player count peaking at 147,955 players in the first week of October.
Despite being out for over three years, The Outlast Trials continues to find new audiences. The multiplayer horror game is still considered the scariest there is, as adding other players usually enhances the experience. In a new event, however, players are now able to escape the Murkoff testing facility, known as the Sinyala Facility.
This communal event requires players to help protagonist Amelia make the escape, which was completed on Sunday night. Now, players can finally escape the facility, and this escape event won't last forever.
