Following the launch of Season 6: Project Judas, which introduced Reagents to the Television Studio where the Kress Twins’ manufactured political idol Bob Vanier, Red Barrels’ The Outlast Trials is running it back with Season 6.1: Prime Time. Available now, the new update “turns the dial even further toward fear, worship, contradiction, and control.”
The limited-time event prepares Reagents for a future dominated by clashing cults of personality and competing fundamentalist ideals. During the event, players will face a rotating onslaught of Prime Assets, destroy defective televisions for additional rewards, unlock new limited-time cosmetics, and endure two new MK-Challenges designed to “test faith, obedience, and survival instinct”.
In MK-Challenge: Win The Truth, you are the blind observer who consumes screen-fed ignorance and swells with the genius of idiot artifice. You must spread the knowledge that brings suffering to the wise in order to win the game which only punishes the defeated. Meanwhile, MK-Challenge: Incinerate The Relic has you as both heretic and zealot. Relics are the proof of an impossible gospel, the belief that makes whole the deservedly slaughtered lamb. Pay your way into heaven and incinerate the relic to get out.
There’s still more to come, thanks to some new “routine therapies” that will be available next month. The first known as Classified, takes place from June 16 to June 30, and will see multiple secret variators added to the game. The second is Mirror, which runs from June 30 to July 14, and sees the Trial perspective “altered” to mislead Reagents. Furthermore, by popular demand, Murkoff is extending each Routine Therapy to two weeks, giving Reagents more time to adapt or fail under these conditions.
You can read the full patch notes here. The Outlast Trials is available on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation, and Xbox.
