Hi Survivors! We've gotten a few questions regarding Keyboard & Mouse controls for the game. KBM support is always active and can be used at any time on top of our gamepad support. If you'd like to see on-screen controls for your control scheme of choice: Go to Settings -> Game Settings -> Controller Icons You can set Controller Icons to Xbox, PlayStation, Keyboard, or Hidden. We also wanted to inform you that an incoming patch will fix the icon sizes for the on-screen KBM control display. In the near future, we will also support key rebinding. Thank you for reading, and we hope you enjoy the game!

Hello Survivors! Just a quick note today! After a small delay, we are excited to share that the Steam version of Outbreak: Shades of Horror Chromatic Split is now available to play and purchase with a 20% launch discount! Thank you all so much for your patience! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3107090/Outbreak_Shades_of_Horror_Chromatic_Split Chromatic Split is a standalone prologue to the upcoming Outbreak: Shades of Horror starring our hero Lydia Daniels. Our detective enters the Cypress Ridge sewer system to meet with her contact on the eve of a massive zombie outbreak, and things quickly devolve from there. Though initially unarmed, you will eventually find a melee weapon and firearms that allow you to progress through sprawling maps. Items and resources are limited, so what you use them to craft, be it healing items, ammo, or save items, will be key to your survival. Enemies can be strategically dismembered to make the most of your limited ammo, while massive boss creatures will require a lot more tenacity to finish off. Explore the Cypress Ridge underground across a three act campaign, and then enjoy a variety of bonus modes and new game plus once you complete the game! Post launch content will include additional bonus modes and the Trials of Hank, an extra side-campaign. Gory survival horror gameplay meets glamorous graphics only possible with Unreal Engine 5 in Outbreak: Shades of Horror Chromatic Split, available now!

Hello again Survivors!
https://youtu.be/y-WS-KRfjDM Today we're excited to announce a slew of new features for our upcoming arcade on-rails shooter, Railbreak! As previously mentioned, Railbreak will be launching on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Steam, and Epic Games Store on December 22nd at a price of $19.99 USD worldwide! Since we last showed off the game, Railbreak has evolved in several really important ways. The work on the game has also enhanced the map design and general gameplay for Outbreak: Shades of Horror, as well. Stay tuned for more information on Outbreak: Shades of Horror in the future! We have FOUR key categories to touch on today! 1. New Elemental Weapons If you tuned into our last stream, you may know a bit about these already! The primary and secondary weapons in Railbreak are outfitted with unique elemental effects that can give you an advantage in battle. Load up enemies with electricity and watch them explode! Stop zombies in their tracks with ice ammo! Melt through the undead with fire! Send the body parts flying with explosive rounds! The new elemental effects drive the action into absolutely chaotic territory, so be sure to take advantage of your arsenal! 2. 'Glitch' Gameplay Modifier System As you progress through the game, things may become a little dicey when new modifiers dubbed 'Glitches' trigger during a stage. Some Glitches may lend a helping hand with infinite ammo or a defensive buff, while others may serve as a thorn in your side with enemies gaining additional health or a storm of civilians running out in front of your shots. With a ton of different Glitches to encounter, you'll need to stay on your toes to survive! 3. New Special Boss Zombies On top of your run-of-the-mill zombies, keep your eyes out for powerful boss monsters! Boom Boom will detonate itself if you're unable to kill it fast enough! The demonic Fetch will blast and blind you with its powerful laser attack! Things get even hairier when you encounter 'Glitched' versions of these beasts; these enhanced versions of the special infected have are faster, stronger, and tankier! 4. Three New Bonus Modes Thought you knew all the ways you'd play Railbreak? Think again! Deal with constantly firing and random Glitch modifiers in Glitch Gauntlet! Face off against all of the game's bosses in a unique scenario in Boss Rush! Face a special challenge that serves to thank our supporters in Shoutout Shootout! With these new modes, you'll never run out of ways to play Railbreak either alone or with a friend in optional two-player coop! As the December 22nd release date for Railbreak creeps ever closer, we're getting more and more excited for you to see our take on the on-rails arcade shooter genre! Join us tonight, December 13th on our Twitch channel at 7PM EST for a special stream showing off some of these new features!

Outbreak: The New Nightmare v7.3.0 has been released. This update includes:

• Option to toggle between horizontal and vertical splitscreen.
• Fixed volumetric flashlights on the assault rifle and DMR.

Outbreak: The New Nightmare v7.2.0 has been released. This update includes:

• Fixed an issue where the wrong player name was reported in the inventory screen.
• Fixed an issue where gamepads could not separately bind the right trigger. This update also includes a major update to the underlying input manager and should provide more comprehensive support to more types of input devices.
• Fixed issues where vibration may not work or it may be attributed to the wrong player's controller.

Outbreak: The New Nightmare v7.1 has been released. This patch includes:

• Quick weapon swap bindings have been added. You can now swap between handguns, Shotguns & Rifles, Power Weapons and Melee Weapons through dedicated bindings WITHOUT opening the inventory. This makes it considerably more easy in local co-op to manage your loadout. NOTE: If you've played Outbreak: The New Nightmare before, you will need to either reset your controls to default to use these or manually bind them.
• Key bindings for Keyboard & Mouse on the 2nd local player are now separated. They will no longer automatically receive the same default binding as player one and their bindings can be completely unique. NOTE: If you've played Outbreak: The New Nightmare before, you will need to go to Options -> Controls and reset your controls to the defaults for this to take effect.
• Fixed an issue where the player would not play the equipping animation if they were equipping an item of the same type.
• Added volumetric lights to flashlights.

The Nightmare never ends. Nearly three years after Outbreak: The New Nightmare released on Steam Early Access, major new features are still being added!
Outbreak: The New Nightmare 7.0 has been released. It includes the following enhancements:

• Local 2-player co-op is now available. Access it via the Local Game menu (replacing the Single-player menu). You can customize the controls for both players in the Options -> Controls menu. See this post for details. NOTE: Local co-op is experimental and you may encounter bugs or other unforeseen issues. PLEASE report these to me on the forums or via the official Discord instance so I can address them. Local co-op is DEMANDING on your machine when on high quality levels as it's rendering everything twice. If you experience framerate issues, lower your graphics settings and try it again.
• Numerous performance improvements across the game. Using a new garbage collector which should reduce the amount of hitching experienced during gameplay on mid to lower-end hardware. You should also see minor framerate improvements across the board in single-player and online co-op.
• Upgraded the underlying engine to the latest version. Although this doesn't seem like a major note, this was actually extremely hard to do due to the age of the codebase, as well as how I architected it originally. Successfully updating the engine will allow me to keep pushing forward on new features and fixes, as well as update the console versions and target new consoles in the future!

Hey Survivors! Well, it's been a while. But there has been a lot underway behind on the scenes on the Outbreak series since the launch of Outbreak: Epidemic on Xbox One and Steam! One of the most demanded features across all of the co-op titles in the series is local co-op. I'm happy to announce it's in active development and nearing completion on PC (and then will be coming to consoles in some form in the future) for Outbreak: The New Nightmare. I'll be looking into other titles in the series in the future to see what can happen there, but that will be a discussion for another time.
Although Outbreak: The New Nightmare was a co-op title from day one, online multiplayer and local co-op are two very different beasts. I've found a way to balance the requirements and add proper support, as well as upgrade the underlying engine to the latest version. This local co-op is only possible due to the massive performance upgrades I was able to achieve in the last round of major patching. That being said, you will need a beefy rig to run local co-op on fully maxed out settings and high resolution. So let's talk about it!

Local Co-op Overview

Outbreak: Epidemic is now fully available on Steam! 4-player OTS co-op survival horror is back! Check out the latest major content update adding numerous new scenarios, features, fixes and more across the title. Now out of Early Access and fully available!

Outbreak: The New Nightmare v6.2.0 has been released! This update includes:

• Adjusting lighting on the Forest location to improve visibility with high brightness.
• Fixing an issue where the EPidemic scenario's game logic got messed up during a performance patch.

Outbreak: The New Nightmare v6.1.0 has been released! This update includes:

• Foundational support for DLC within the title, with support for the first piece of DLC which are cosmetic flashlight effects available now!
• More DLC is planned for the future. Stay tuned!
• Very minor bug fixes across the title.

Hey Survivors! Wow, it's been a while since we've talked about Outbreak: The New Nightmare. Since The New Nightmare left Early Access in January 2018, it's been a whirlwind of development on patches for it and new titles. And then... things went a bit quiet. Well, I've been poking around the old codebase now that I've learned quite a bit on The Nightmare Chronicles, Lost Hope and Epidemic. And... I think we can make some improvements now. I'll keep details light as it's still a WIP, but I'm starting to prepare some updates for the Xbox One and PC version to help improve framerate, load times and address some other issues across the game. Stay tuned. I'll have some news in the next week or so!

The Outbreak series is created by a solo indie-dev in their free time without funding and much in the way of advertising support. Community involvement in sharing and letting the world know about the game is critical to the future success of the series. Just a quick request - If you're enjoying these games and you feel they deserve it, PLEASE consider leaving a positive review to share your thoughts with the community. If you have any issues or require support, PLEASE reach out to me here or on Discord for help before filing a negative review. If I'm unable to meet your expectations, you should absolutely share your thoughts. Above all, I'm looking for honest feedback to improve the series. The response to the Outbreak series has been awesome over the last few years and I would like to keep creating new experiences for years to come. Thank you for your support! :)

Return to the world of survival horror in Chapter Two!

To celebrate Outbreak: The New Nightmare's one year anniversary on June 20th, 2018 (Early Access Launch) we have released the v5.11.0 update for Windows, Mac and Linux! This update contains a number of QoL fixes for the game, many inspired by Outbreak: The Nightmare Chronicles. This update includes (with additional details here compared to the ingame patch notes):

• Improved enemy attack hit detection to provide more opportunity for the player to dodge.
• Players will no longer take damage from touching an enemy's arm during an acid blast and you will only take damage when the enemy is closer to actually making the swing animation. This means there is less chance you'll take damage as they wind up which allows you to juke them easier.
• Enemy attack collisions were also adjusted which should reduce the chance of you getting moved or locked by an enemy swing and there should be less chance of a collider sticking around after an enemy dies.
• Greatly reduced the spawn rate of zombies on Normal and Hard difficulty. Normal has almost 45+ seconds added between spawns and Hard has almost 35+ seconds added between spawns.
• Buffed weapon knockback.
• Rebalanced weapon spawns in Onslaught mode to provide more power weapons, especially on earlier waves.
• Adjusted Insane graphics option to improve performance. Other quality settings were adjusted slightly to bring them closer to Outbreak: The Nightmare Chronicles profiles.

A Brief Development History

Steam Release Details

Xbox One Release Details

So what else is new?

THANK YOU!!!

Outbreak: The New Nightmare is celebrating the end of Early Access with a 50% off sale through Jan 4th, 2018! After the sale, we're transitioning to the full release AND raising the price! Grab it now because it won't be this cheap for a long time!

We made it! Leaving Early Access around Jan. 5th, 2018!

We're also launching on Xbox One!

THANK YOU!

Outbreak: The New Nightmare is leaving Steam Early Access in early January 2018. When it transitions to full release, the price will be increasing. Grab it while it's cheap and save some $$$! The game will also be releasing as a single-player title on Xbox One on January 3rd. Preorders will be starting about 2 weeks prior to the launch date.

Heck of a ride

Console port?

So what other development is happening right now?

Thank you!

We're happy to announce that v5.10.0 of Outbreak: The New Nightmare has been released. It includes the following changes:

• Zombies no longer attack through doors. If a door is unlocked, they will open it and wait a short time before performing a subsequent action.
• Buffed the boss of the Epidemic scenario.
• Minor UI changes across the game.
• Added additional gameplay tips to the main menu.
• Added button to force the next tip to display on demand on the main menu.
• Postgame kill counter and accuracy now only tracks gun-type weapons.
• Grenade and explosion kills are now tracked properly, but does not impact accuracy.
• The Shotgun and Shotgun Shells will now appear more frequently in lower Onslaught waves.

Outbreak: The New Nightmare is leaving Early Access in January 2018. When the game transitions to a full release, the price will increase. Grab it now at the cheaper price point and tell your friends! With just little over a month to go until the transition to full release, the nightmare is becoming more and more real. This game has had a fantastic run in Early Access (almost 6 months now!) and have added a tremendous amount of content, features, fixes, performance boosts and much much more. The community has been fantastic in giving the game non-stop feedback that has directly shaped the direction and presentation of the experience. THANK YOU for all of your support, well wishes and thoughts. With co-op survival horror dying off in the last few years, it has been awesome to be a part of revitalizing the genre. And I feel it turned out pretty well for being primarily worked on by a single developer for over two years with no budget. ;) As we close in on the final stretch, there's a few more fixes and tweaks that are being eyed up right now. Some of them are rather dangerous, so they might not make the cut, but polish is always on my mind. I'm also busy working on the console port as well. I also want to make sure to call out the support from key community members like Standemonium!! and Mr RSpeedy. Stan was a great help in layouting the office and city initial environments and Speedy has been a fantastic community leader and coordinator (and trailer participant!). Their support helped me greatly through the daily grind as I continued to build each piece and integrate necessary assets. (And thank you to the Unity Asset Store creators as well!) I'm very excited for the full release and to begin looking into the next survival horror experience I'd like to make. Thank you everyone for playing and supporting the game! We have some very exciting times ahead in January 2018 and I'm looking forward to playing the game with everyone. THANK YOU!!! ːsteamhappyː
