The new Story Mode of Outlast 2 allows players to experience the game with minimal challenges, fewer enemy encounters and more breathing room to fully immerse yourself in the universe.

It is still possible to die, but we’ve decreased the number of enemies and have lowered their speed, damage and perception.

We’ve also made tweaks to the pacing of the game to make more room for exploration, instead of chases.

Also, we’ve taken the opportunity to reinsert some of the things we had to remove from the original game in order to get an M rating. These changes are not drastic in our opinion and do not impact gameplay, but they had to be made to avoid an Adult Only rating. 

That’s it. Hope you enjoy!
