Red Barrels' co-founder is just as confused as we are as to why no one's tried to replicate Outlast's success: 'Honestly, I don't know'

Red Barrels co-founder Philippe Morin says he doesn't know why no one has tried to replicate Outlast's success over 13 years and more than 50 million players, suggesting it may come down to the lack of combat or the gore. Morin says the studio is happy to be part of a niche and succeed within it, and would create a different IP if it ever wanted to go mass market.
