About the Game

Final Outcry is a realistic horror experience powered by Unreal Engine 5, where you'll witness an urban explorer's terrifying descent into an abandoned prison through frightening V/H/S style found-footage gameplay.

Story

The U.S. Department of Irregular Security (DIS) has served to protect the country and American public from a wide range of anomalous activity across the nation. They’ve collected decades of case files documenting encounters with the unknown, their subjects ranging from paranormal to extraterrestrial (and everything in-between).

Final Outcry follows DIS Case File #871, a V/H/S recording from 1986 of an urban explorer who went missing while venturing into a derelict prison. Inside this abandoned prison – the Heron Correctional Facility – an unnatural horror stalks the decaying halls.

Features

  • Found Footage Gameplay: Experience the horrors of the Heron Correctional Facility through realistic V/H/S style gameplay
  • Immersive Graphics: High quality graphics powered by Unreal Engine 5 provide you with a frighteningly detailed world to explore
  • Intense Scares: Navigate chilling encounters and a tense atmosphere, where every shadow hides terror
