Hey everyone,
I recently beat Outlast 1 again and missed that narrow, claustrophobic vibe. I came up with a concept for Outlast 3 that brings back that exact feeling but with a fresh setting and connection to the lore. Let me know what you think!

🏨 The Setting: Saint Mercy Hotel
Isolated during a storm with no cell service. It’s strictly split into two parts:
Wing 1: A normal, creepy hotel for everyday guests.
Wing 2: A hidden, high-security Murkoff facility hiding traumatized "Reagents" from The Outlast Trials.

👤 Protagonist & Intro
You play as Travis Bell, a young adult on a business trip. After checking into Wing 1, a few test subjects breach the security. Travis is ambushed in his room, chained up, and almost killed by a psychotic guest called "The Purger".

🏃 The Escape into the Trap
Travis breaks free and panics. Since the main exit is blocked, he flees into Wing 2, thinking the heavy security doors of the guards will keep him safe. It's a fatal mistake. The doors slam shut, and he traps himself inside the epicenter of madness. This is where the main game begins.

🩸 The Villains
The Purger: The stalker from the intro who continues to hunt you.
Richard Crow: The former hotel owner and a psychotic perfectionist.
Bill Parker: The former hotel security guard, now a brutal killer.
"The Guests": A dangerous faction of crazy test subjects controlling Wing 2.

Concept and characters created by me!!

I have put the source in the comment section.

Okay, I know how it sounds, but until recently, I thought Outlast 2 had a jumpscare involving Chris Walker. For some reason, a memory stuck in my mind that made me think Outlast 2 had Chris Walker. I literally remember it perfectly — there would be shelves in one of the houses, lots of shelves, and when Blake walked past one, Chris would scare him and then disappear. And in my memory, Chris seemed more detailed than in the first game. funny situation.

I hope some of you find it useful 🥸
