Regardless, there has been no indication that Red Barrels is moving on from the Outlast series or that they’re done making games, so it’s not hard to imagine an Outlast 2 DLC story expansion coming in the next year or so. Neither Ethan, nor Lynn would have access to a camera, so it would likely have to be a new character, perhaps one from Murkoff as was the case in Whistleblower, that would have some reason to record what he sees and some means to do so.

Outlast is known for its night-vision camera, functioning as its own unique gimmick that it uses brilliantly to up the scare ante. One issue affecting this speculation though is the camera. Outlast: Whistleblower Protagonists Waylon Park Antagonists Jeremy Blaire Eddie Gluskin Neutral Steve Andrew Dr. Would he make an appearance in any DLC expansion? I don’t see why not. Outlast received the prequel Whistleblower DLC post launch where players take on the role of a new playable character, the tipster who was the catalyst for the main game's events. Don’t get me wrong, I did enjoy playing against the villains that were in the game, but it seemed as though Knoth was being set up as a final encounter that simply never came. More importantly, additional DLC would give us the opportunity to finally play against Papa Knoth as an antagonist, something we were regrettably denied by Outlast 2. At a certain point in the game, we’re under the assumption that she’s merely been kidnapped, but what if she’s also continually escaping and being pursued before eventually becoming kidnapped? That would make for an interesting playthrough. Lynn is alive in the game for just as long as Blake (take that as you will), and she is shown on at least one occasion to be capable of escaping the grasp of the Temple Gate residents. Of course, Ethan meets a brutal end that I won’t necessarily spoil, so that could limit the effectiveness of this particular story.Īnother option would be a more important character that could be used in this theoretical Outlast 2 DLC: Lynn Langermann, Blake’s wife and journalism partner. He seems to have had a tumultuous relationship with the Temple Gate residents, and he even defied Papa Knoth by helping his daughter escape (or at least try to). Ethan, a non-violent character who shelters Blake from Marta, was also the father of “Jane Doe,” the pregnant girl who turned up murdered and attracted Blake and his wife to the area in the first place.
#Outlast 2 main character update#
Their most recent update confirms that the Murkoff Corporation was directly involved with the village in Outlast 2, even going so far as to place recording devices inside the now-infamous Chapel.Īs for characters involved, a minor character we met in Outlast 2 could be a prime candidate.
