Outbreak: Endless Nightmares survival horror gets a native build via Linux gaming with Windows PC. Thanks to the continuing efforts and support of developer Dead Drop Studios. Which is now available on Steam.
The next game in the Outbreak series – Outbreak: Endless Nightmares is finally here. And once again, we now have support in Linux gaming with Windows PC. All thanks to the efforts of Dead Drop Studios (a.k.a., solo developer Evan Wolbach).
Survival horror fans are in for something better. Roguelike gameplay has now been added to the core Outbreak loop, with startling outcomes. Since this greatly boosts your ability to replay the game. All thanks to more trying, semi-procedurally generated “anomalies.” As you’d expect, each anomaly is filled with powerful weapons, story bits, and deadly puzzles. These also include and blood starved fiends, of course!
In a first for the series, Outbreak: Endless Nightmares offers mo-cap animations. This also means improved real-time lighting and shadows (including multi-layered VFX for gore and explosions). Plus high-res textures that look their best on 4K screens.
Year One DLC + Outbreak Complete Collection
It’s obvious that Outbreak: Endless Nightmares has a massive jump in quality. Leveling up gameplay and content for Outbreak fans. Dead Drop Studios is also proud to announce that the game will include free post launch DLC. More on this in the next few months…
Outbreak: Endless Nightmares Trailer
Death is Not the End
At the beginning of Outbreak: Endless Nightmares, you find yourself trapped. Since you are stuck in what remains of the Arzt Memorial Hospital. This becomes a central hub – a safe zone. So you can organize your inventory and storage cache. You can also level up your character(s). Or if you want, just to take a breather before jumping into the world again.
Outbreak: Endless Nightmares delivers extreme replayability. Since gameplay offers multiple character options. Each with their own abilities, upgrade paths, and more. Explore, scavenge for supplies, uncover clues, and fight. All while you work your way through the anomalies. Each coming with semi-procedurally generated instances. Since both the setting and the undead are out to get you.
In true roguelike fashion, Outbreak: Endless Nightmares also gets more difficult. This is true, each time you enter an anomaly. So you’ll need to think carefully about weapons, healing items, and other supplies. Plan what you’ll need along for the journey. If you’re lucky, you may find storage caches. These caches give you access to your expanded inventory. All while offering a chance to restock. But it’s up to you to scour the settings for supplies.
There’s more to discover in the world other than murderous zombie hordes. Find the journals spread in the area to learn more about the original outbreak. This will also help you find refuge in Outbreak: Endless Nightmares! But don’t think death can save you. Every time you die, you’ll awake trapped in the hub. This is a nexus between Life and Death.
