No one makes a horror-survival game like the makers of "Outlast 2." The release date of the highly anticipated sequel to the game that terrified its players is reportedly on the verge of postponement.

'Outlast 2' Latest News & Update
"Outlast" is basically referred to as the horror-survival game patterned after "The Blair Witch Project" concept. It started out as a single player campaign wherein the player takes the role of Miles Upshur, a well-known investigative journalist. Gamers are expecting "Outlast 2" to have pretty much the same concept from its predecessor, only with different locations and characters.
True enough, "Outlast 2" has gotten rid of Miles Upshur and has replaced him with a fellow investigative journalist named Blake Langermann. "Outlast 2" is reportedly set in the desert of Arizona, where Blake Langermann tries to investigate the murder of a woman. However, the plot twist happens when Blake and his wife find themselves in the middle of a dark and twisted world they had never imagined.
