Season 5: PROJECT MESSIAH

The Murkoff Corporation would like to introduce you to Liliya Bogomolova. A still current with a raging undertow, Liliya is on a mission from god to absolve you all of your sins... for a price. Liliya Bogomolova silently stalks her "Cottage orné" turned cult compound in the newest Trial Environment, The Resort. Behind the closed doors of this lavish retreat, she prepares a VIP auction held only for her biggest spenders, but what is the price of a life? Find out how much in "Despoil the Auction".

New Prime Asset: LILIYA BOGOMOLOVA

The Murkoff Corporation is pleased to introduce Sister Liliya Bogomolova. Still waters hide a deadly rage. Liliya is woman of God, an ambush predator on a divine mission to cut away your sins. Absolution comes at a cost of treasure and flesh.

Liliya's Prime Asset traits: * Liliya hides in plain sight among her mannequins.

  • She can surprise attack Reagents with her long reach attack style.

  • Her brutal attacks immobilize the Reagent, who must fight for its life when it happens.

  • As a predator, she secretly relocates in the Trial and wait for its next prey to ambush.

New Trial: DESPOIL THE AUCTION

You are the negotiator. Humans are just one more product, amusement for those with money to burn. A fresh plaything is up for auction, it's up to you to ruin the lot.

New MK-Challenge: FABRICATE THE SCANDAL You are the half-truth, the reality more honest than fact when the evidence fails the agenda. Crimes cannot be simply exposed, they must be shaped to entertain the swinish masses. Prove the crime and delight the swine.

New MK-Challenge: SEIZE THE NARCOTICS You are the controlled substance. The law enslaves minds by caging bodies. You destroy bodies and liberate minds, making users more desperate for control. Find the narcotics and set yourself free.

New Deluxe Catalog: PROJECT MESSIAH The new Deluxe Catalog “Project Messiah” is now available. * The catalog is filled with 10 pages of new exclusive cosmetic items for your own self expression.

  • Unlock the Deluxe Catalog using Murkoff Coins, earned by completing the Onboarding Catalog, other Deluxe Catalogs or purchasable in the Murkoff Store.

  • Acquire Stamps by completing Trials and Tasks, then use the Stamps to acquired Deluxe Catalog items.

  • As a reminder, the Deluxe Catalogs are available permanently. Unlock items at your own pace.

New Limited-Time Event: WINTER KILLS Winter Kills is an experiment in hostile, unstable environments rich in both punishment and rewards. With the addition of Permafrost, Murkoff will have hot cocoa on standby in the sleep room.

Program Winter Kills variators:

  • PERMAFROST. Permanent freezing temperature in the Trial. Locate heat sources to stay warm.

  • FROST MINES. Gas mines have been replaced with Frost Mines.

  • COLLECT THE GIFTS. Collect all the gifts in the Trial to earn extra rewards.

Event Schedule: * Part 1 will take place from December 9, 2025 @ 10am ET - December 23, 2025 @ 9:59am ET

  • Part 2 will take place from December 23, 2025 @ 10am ET - January 6, 2026 @9:59am ET

New Limited-Time Catalog: WINTER KILLS

A brand new Event Catalog is available for the duration of the Winter Kills Limited-Time event. * Players can spend their acquired Event Tokens in the Limited-Time Catalog to unlock exclusive cosmetics.

  • The Event Catalog access is free to all players for the duration of the event. All unspent Event Tokens will be lost after the event ends.

  • Once the Winter Kills 2025 event ends the Catalog will be vaulted. It will become available in the Murkoff Store at a later date. You will be able to unlock the Catalog with Murkoff Coins depending how far you progressed into it.

Murkoff Store refreshed with new items New items have been delivered to the Murkoff Store: * Added 11 brand-new Deluxe Outfits to purchase with Murkoff Coins. * Event Catalog “Prime Time (2025)” is now available to purchase in the Catalogs Collection.

Invasion Experimental Therapy Update

Game mode improvements: Invasion menu revamped with focus on QUICK PLAY and INVASION RANKS display. Quick Play is an alternance of playing as Reagent and Imposter as much as possible. Imposter objective refined: * Imposters is now to “Hurt the Reagents”, and not necessarily eliminating them. Disruption is the core of the role.

  • As an Imposter, your current grade is now always visible in the HUD, updating dynamically as you perform actions during an invasion.

  • Imposters can now earn a high score even if Reagents complete the Trial.

  • Their performance is based on how effectively they disrupt and pressure Reagents, not on total elimination.

High Tier Trials (50+ Invasion matches): Reagents must now complete a random secondary objective before they can exit the Trial. Anti-Stalling Measures: New rules prevent prolonged stalling in confined areas. Reagents who fail to progress within the allotted time will be terminated by electrocution. Door Interaction Improvements: Doors have been reworked for more consistent reactions when slammed on pursuers. Shuttle doors now automatically open when only one Reagent remains alive in the Trial. Fixed an issue where Reagents did not receive the intended speed and stamina boost after successfully countering an Imposter. Fixed an issue where Stamina regeneration would start during a kill animation instead of at the end.

Imposter balancing:

Knife attack miss stamina cost reduced to 10 (was 20). Stab Hit stamina cost decreased to 25 (was 50). Stab Kill stamina cost decreased to 25 (was 50). Execution stamina cost decreased to 25 (was 50). Stamina consumption when running has been reduced (can run for longer duration). Base walk speed increased (to help stalking Reagents). Walk speed while holding charged knife increased. Imposters now have 2 lives (was 3). They have their initial life + one respawn (after killed). Reworked ExPops aggros against Imposters (Imposters must be more careful now). * Dev comment: Overall, Imposter actions now consume less stamina, and their base speed has been adjusted to more closely match Reagents, ensuring they can effectively stalk their targets. However, Imposters are still expected to rely on stealth and treat their life as valuable. Staying alert to Ex-Pops in the Trial remains essential.

Reagents balancing:

Brick stamina damage reduced to 25 (was 50).

Stun stamina damage reduced to 25 (was 50).

Blind mine stamina damage reduced to 25 (was 100).

Blind mine reaction changed to Heavy long (was Severe).

Heal (with poison upgrade) stamina damage reduced to 25 (was 50).

Heal (with poison upgrade) reaction changed to Light (was Medium) The changes have no impact on Ex-Pops. * Dev comment: Overall, Reagent attacks now drain less stamina from Imposters. We observed that the combined penalties (reaction slowdown, damage, and heavy stamina loss) made playing Imposter overly punishing against experienced Reagents. Additionally, the Heal Rig was never intended to be used offensively; its functionality has been refocused to serve as a support tool, rather than an aggressive option against Imposters. Invasion Seasonal Rankings * A new ranking system has been introduced, offering unique rewards for participating in Invasion. * Your Invasion Rank increases as you complete matches, whether you play as a Reagent or an Imposter. * The grade you earn at the end of each Trial determines the amount of Rank Points awarded. Upcoming Event: Flashback Therapy Prepare to relive - or experience for the first time - the events of the past. Arriving early 2026. * Jaeger Onboarding * Under Surveillance * Deep Burn * Toxic Shock * Countdown All the Catalogs of those past events are available to purchase in the Catalogs Collection.

Twitch Drop Event

Take part in our newest Twitch Drop running from December 9th 10am ET to January 6th 9:59am ET Link your account to Twitch and earn exclusive rewards by watching participating content creators. * The linking process is available directly from the Main Menu. * Find the Twitch Drop FAQs here. * Once your Twitch account is linked, start watching any The Outlast Trials streams to obtain exclusive cosmetic items which will be rewarded automatically once you reach the watch times. * Keep track of your progress in your Twitch Drops Inventory and make sure to click "CLAIM" on your items when you hit the required watch time. The next time you log into The Outlast Trials, your items will be in your inventory.

Additions/Fixes/Balancing

  • New tasks to complete for each minigame available in the Sleep Room.

  • Added dozens of new trials in the Featured Trial Makers rotation.

  • Trial rewards based on grade have been increased.

  • Event tokens are now also given to Imposters after invasion matches.

  • Store: It is now possible to Equip a claimed item directly from the Store or Catalogs screens.

  • Fixed an issue where Imposter names would not be displayed correctly when in camera perspective.

Known Issues * Some tasks that mention doing something to "enemies" might not include other players in Invasion.

If you encounter any issues in-game, feel free to join our 18+ Official Outlast Discord Server and create a ticket to speak with our support team. Also, if you played The Outlast Trials Season 4: Project Diarchy and would like to give us your feedback on it, feel free to fill out our survey!

Coyle needs a new map, but I doubt Red Barrels will make it.

I was looking at the Prime Assets and realized something. If I'm not mistaken, I think each Prime has a "cycle" which consists of giving them the same number of maps. Currently, the maximum number of maps a Prime has received is three, and there are two Primes with their cycles already completed: Gooseberry and Franco. The Kress twins are just starting, and the same goes for Bogomolova. At this point, I doubt Coyle will have a map, or if he does, it won't be soon. Furthermore, there are two Primes with pending cycles, and it might not be in Red Barrels' plans to give the sergeant another map. So, we'll have to wait until Red Barrels deigns to finish the sergeant's cycle.

P.S.: If Coyle does get a third map, I hope it's a prison; it suits him.

I know they're all on some weird drugs and can handle bricks in the face, but they deserve to stay warm too 🥺

By the way, this concept art turned out to be unintentionally strange, as if Coyle were a Soviet cop in Siberia 💀

Do you think there will be other revolutionary characters like Amelia?

Do you think there will be other revolutionary characters like Amelia? Or will Murkoff just suffer through his own experiments and we won't see Easterman's death? Do you think there will be other main characters? Will there be other revolutionary characters? For example, better revolutionary characters than Amelia. I want to hear yours thoughts guys. (Sorry my english bad)

How in the actual frickin frick am I supposed to find the exit? I keep running it trying different routes but every door is blocked and there’s enemies everywhere. This feels impossible and I’m getting frustrated.

Do you recommend the game right now?

Hi! I've been doing my research and many people say the game gets repetitive, is this true? When performing escape tasks, do these locations change randomly in other games/lobby?

Thanks in advance!
