- Locale key LongDescription modified: Race against the clock and battle the undead in this co-op survival horror nightmare. → <!--textBlock--> <!--title--> # A hospital overrun with the undead... <!--text--> **Beware! This survival horror nightmare is designed to look, play, and sound like a brutally difficult and archaic '90s era experience. It's part of the legacy Outbreak series and was developed by a solo developer a long time ago, but this version includes some quality of life improvements. Only proceed if you're comfortable experiencing a truly retro experience, with pure 2D overhead gameplay, slow and deliberate movement, crushing inventory management, and non-stop pixelated gore. So... if you're brave enough to face these fears...** Explore a nightmarish environment, scrounge for supplies, and battle the undead in Outbreak -- a brutal survival horror game with optional co-op. The clock never stops as you attempt to manage an extremely limited inventory with a murderous horde on the hunt. Choose between acquiring additional weapons, healing items, or necessary tools for progression. You have only one life. Make it count! - Optional Local Co-op: Play Campaign and Onslaught Mode in 2-player splitscreen! - Cut the cord: All modes playable in single-player with pause support. - Campaign Mode: Play the entire story alone or with a friend in splitscreen co-op! - Nightmares Mode: Narrative hardcore single-player story mode. - Onslaught Mode: Fight waves of endless enemies alone or with a friend! - Friendly bots: Optional Partner AI bot in solo Campaign & Onslaught modes, even in co-op! - Dark atmosphere: Explore a deserted hospital infested by the undead. - Brutal difficulty: Your character only has a single life; includes 3 difficulty settings. - Limited inventory: Decide which items are worthy, and which should be left behind. - Expansive arsenal: Defend yourself with a multitude of firearms and melee weapons. - Challenging puzzles: Scour each room to solve puzzles and learn about the outbreak. - High replayability: Semi-random enemy and item layouts make every playthrough unique. - Distinct survivors: Seven playable heroes with unique attributes and starting equipment. - Essential equipment: Earn during play and trade with other players. - Play your way: Customizable gamepad, mouse and keyboard controls.
