The Outlast Trials was one of the best-selling horror games on Xbox after full release. Though recent updates have focused on events, a new killer is sure to add plenty of new experiences for die-hard players.
Franco "Il Bambino" Barbi is being released into The Outlast Trials to wreak havoc on players. Wielding an obsession with pregnancy, birth, and what comes after, he can be seen in the teaser smashing in the heads of those who cross him. His weapon may be a nail-studded bat, but he also appears to perform experiments on pregnant women and their fetuses. His nickname indicates any gameplay involving him as a villain may revolve around these themes.
