Red Barrels announced today that The Outlast Trials, which launched its full version out of early access one month ago, has officially reached two million players on PC and console. Now the developers are launching the game’s first limited-time event, called Toxic Shock, next week.

The Outlast Trials launched in early access in May 2023 and in its full version on March 5 this year. The two-million player count includes those who began playing in early access, and according to Red Barrels, those players have experienced over 38 million deaths in-game. Out of that number, 600,000 have completed the trials and “became Reborn.”
