I'm glad Nintendo is getting more 3rd party support, better late then never. Perfect for going to bed and having the living daylights scared out of you.

It’s time for a little status update from us.

First off, we wanted to take a moment to thank all of you that have bought Outlast 2 and have been supporting the studio for more than 5 years now. Red Barrels was nothing more than a dream, but with a lot of blood, sweat and beers it has now become a small, fully independent studio with a kickass team who can work miracles.

We strive to create unique experiences and take risks. Hopefully, we’ll manage to entertain you for years to come.

About the future, many of you have been requesting a DLC. While the first Outlast was made with the idea of a DLC in mind, that was not the case for Outlast 2. We’ve considered many options, but none of them felt appropriate for a DLC. Outlast 2 was created to make you feel like a rat in a maze, without any knowledge of what’s outside the maze.

We will, at some point, make an Outlast 3 and answers will be given. You can also check out The Murkoff Account’s epilogue. It takes places right after the events of the second game and offers some insight into the events in the game. (https://redbarrelsgames.com/comic-books/)

Currently we’re working on something a lot of you have been asking for... It won’t be a sequel to Outlast or Outlast 2, but it will be a distinct experience set in the Outlast universe. We can’t say more right now, we first need to make sure we can make it work. Like I mentioned, we strive to be risk-takers and this one is a pretty big challenge. If all goes well, we’ll soon be able to reveal more.

In the meantime, the Outlast franchise will be released on the Nintendo Switch during the first quarter of 2018.

Cheers!

I have 1 and Whistleblower on Xbox, don't feel like it's a game I need to double dip on, but cool! Heard 2 wasn't worth the time so I've avoided it

Cool for Nintendo Switch but I’m not getting it though, I already played the first one on PC but not the second game however.

Just good to see Nintendo going for as many games as possible. They are on their grind and that is good for Switch owners.

3rd party support is alive and well on Switch... but I think I've had my fill of hiding in video game lockers for a lifetime.

Like Arkham Armored Edition, COD, BLOPS 2, Deus Ex HR directors bozak edition, Assassins Creed 4, Ninja Gaiden 3 Razor to the ballbag on WiiU. It's nice that Nintendo is getting these games but I'm not interested as a Switch owner. I played Outlast on X1 and would play 2 on x1x rather then my Switch.
