Outlast Gets Surprise Release on the Nintendo Switch

Surprise Release on the Nintendo Switch

The 2013 survival horror title Outlast has appeared suddenly on the Nintendo Switch eShop ($24.99 USD) to the surprise of fans. Red Barrels, the publisher of the game, initially promised a first quarter 2018 release. It appears that they kept true to that promise, and is following it up with an Outlast 2 release on the Switch as well.

The Nintendo Switch port is called Outlast: Bundle of Terror, as it includes the original game as well as its DLC Whistleblower. That add-on came out a year after the original’s release. Much like the scary creatures you encounter in the game, it appears that Red Barrels wants to create the same surprise element with the Switch release.

What Game Features are on the Nintendo Switch Port?
