Red Barrels has announced the launch of Outlast 2 for the Nintendo Switch, including a new Story Mode that's also out for other platforms.

Outlast 2 is a twisted new journey into the depths of the human mind. Set in same universe as the original game, the sequel introduces Sullivan Knoth and his followers, who left a wicked world behind to give birth to Temple Gate, a town deep in the wilderness and hidden from civilization. You are Blake Langermann, a cameraman working with his wife, Lynn. The two investigative journalists are willing to take risks and dig deep to uncover the story.

The new Story Mode of Outlast 2 allows players to experience the game with minimal challenges, fewer enemy encounters and more breathing room. The mode will be made available for free today as an update to all versions of Outlast 2.

Outlast 2 was originally released last year for PC, Xbox One, and PS4.
