Outlast is an upcoming indie horror game from veteran developers

Outlast

With banner fright franchises like Resident Evil hanging up their horror hats in favor of break-neck action, the indie scene has been picking up the terrifying slack with titles like Amnesia and Slender. Red Barrels, a new studio featuring alumni of the Prince of Persia, Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell, and Uncharted franchises, is seeking to bring another sleep deprivation-inducing entry to the gore-splattered table with Outlast. The trailer above speaks (or rather, screams) for itself.

Outlast is slated for next year.
