A distraught Blake holds the baby in his arms and has a brief conversation with preacher Sullivan Knoth, who has killed all of his followers, and tells Blake to kill the baby. Lynn eventually gives birth to what is heavily suggested to be the Anti-Christ, and then dies.
Blake and Lynn try to escape together, but Lynn has to lay down in the chapel when she starts going into labor. At the end of the game, Blake is constantly being pulled back into his Catholic school flashbacks/hallucinations, he has had nails driven through his hands, and in general, he is just in really bad shape, and on the brink of death.Īfter hours of searching, Blake finally finds his wife Lynn, who is now nine months pregnant, even though it seems like only a few hours have passed since the start of their ordeal. Red Barrels claims that the mode will feature fewer enemies with lower perception, so that players can spend more time digesting the world of Outlast 2 and less time running from baddies.The events at the end of Outlast 2 in the present day Arizona desert are certainly the strangest, so perhaps it's best that we start there. 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.Īlongside the cut content, Outlast 2 is also getting a new story mode that promises to be more exploration-focused. We’ve also made tweaks to the pacing of the game to make more room for exploration, instead of chases.Īlso, 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. It is still possible to die, but we’ve decreased the number of enemies and have lowered their speed, damage and perception. 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. Moreover, the developer may have tweaked the content to fit the Mature rating, either by toning down the violence/language or re-animating some portions. Given how strict the ESRB can be with its ratings process, it is possible that Red Barrels simply doesn’t believe the cut content is too mature for the M-rated audience. Re-releasing the game as an “unrated cut” is one thing, but updating the current version with removed content is another. It’s unclear if the same patch is set to release on consoles, especially since it is content that was removed in order to receive a certain rating. Before Outlast 2 released, developer Red Barrels had to cut some content to ensure that the game received a ‘Mature’ rating instead of ‘Adults Only.’ In terms of game ratings, ‘Adults Only’ can be a kiss of death, ensuring that most major retailers don’t sell the title similar to the NC-17 rating on movies.īut now that Outlast 2 has been out for a while, Red Barrels is adding the cut content via a patch on Steam.
