A new map and several missions are also coming soon in Project Breach, the next major expansion for The Outlast Trials

The Outlast Trials Introduces A Vigilante And Twisted Holiday Event In Major Update

Amelia was once a victim trapped in the same titular trials as player characters find themselves in, but she escaped. Now, she's back to have her revenge on the Murkoff Corporation--leaving questions about who the newest Prime Asset, or major boss, is--if anyone. Players will get to interact with Amelia in-game in ways that sound novel to The Outlast Trials' typical encounters. Personally, as a frequent player of this game myself, I'm excitedly confused by what she is bringing to the game.

The latest map is called Downtown and is highlighted by its central Trial, or main mission, called Pleasure The Prosecutor. Along with that main mission, which is designed to take a group of four roughly 45 minutes on normal difficulty, two new side missions will also be set in the Downtown map. For players looking for new gear, the game's sixth class/cooldown ability comes with Project Breach, too. It's called The Jammer, though the team at Red Barrels hasn't yet disclosed how this one works.

Amelia's place in the story shakes up The Outlast Trials in a way like no other character has to date.

Alongside Project Breach, a new limited-time event kicks off on December 10, too. Winter Kills will give players a series of holiday challenges to complete and a host of new cosmetics to earn for their character and Sleep Room. You can even wear your very own Christmas jammies while running for your life down bloodied, tetanus-friendly halls. Even in the Murkoff Facility, it's the most wonderful time of the year, I suppose.

All of this begins on December 10 on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation platforms.

Editor's note: An earlier version of this story incorrectly identified Amelia as a boss enemy.
