Morin expressed an interest in returning to the Mount Massive Asylum, the first game’s setting, at some point in the future, but for now wants to focus on something new and exciting.

In the interview he also reflects on the process of designing Outlast’s Whistleblower DLC and the studio’s general philosophy of focusing on player experience first. It’s a team of only 12 people, and Morin cautioned fans to not expect anything too soon, but Red Barrels is aiming “to make a game we’re scared to play ourselves and trust our instinct.”
