Unlimited Batteries

Cheats

Note this cheat has not been confirmed!
  1. Find the 3 fuses near the end. Once you have done that there is a little corner where you can hide (on the right side).
  2. Enter that corner and look at the floor.
  3. Spin round 4 times. Then look to the sky and press X (3 times), B, up, down, down, up.
  4. A message will appear on the wall saying: 'You are dead now'.
  5. Unlimited Batteries are now locked in.

This  doesn't  work,  I  sat  here,  spinning  four  times,  jumping  three  times,  yet  nothing  happened,  I  tried  ever  way  I  thought  of  and  it  did  not  work.

I  might  be  dumb,  but  what  does  this  mean  
Find  the  3  fuses  near  the  end.  Once  you  have  done  that  there  is  a  little  corner  where  you  can  hide  (on  the  right)?  Does  it  mean  after  I  plug  in  the  fuses,  where  I  found  the  last  one  or  where  I  plug  them  in?  Sorry  if  this  sounds  dumb.

Crouching Glitch

Glitches

This works sometimes... when you are near an enemy keep pressing the circle button repeatedly and often they won't be able to touch you!

Unlimited Batteries

Hints

Here's a nice tip to get up to 100 batteries! When you find a battery, just keep saving and then reloading your game near to it. Each time you reload the battery will respawn and you can grab it and then repeat the process!

Game Lag / Enemy Spawn

Hints

If the game lags for a second, it might mean an enemy has spawned. The music will change if an enemy is nearby or has noticed you, and the main character's breathing will become rapid.

Escape Routes

Hints

Don't close all of the doors in the room you are in. Leave one open to provide yourself an escape route. Keep in mind that enemies can break down doors.

Night Vision & Batteries

Hints

Follow the instructions below to conserve your batteries.

  • If night vision is off, the camera won't drain your batteries.
  • Don't use night vision in a well-lit area.
  • Don't use night vision while hiding in a locker. Instead, listen to your enemy's activities.
  • If you run out of batteries, you will still be able to see a short distance ahead of you. Backtrack and search for more batteries. They glow blue. If you can't find any, consider loading an earlier save.

Record Notes

Hints

Whenever you see something noteworthy, such as a new enemy or writing on the wall, bring up your camera. This will record a note explaining your character's thoughts.

Nearby Enemies

Hints

Nearby enemies will hear you if you run. If you haven't been spotted yet, walk slowly until you are out of danger.

Insane Difficulty Mode Walkthrough

Guides

Watch this video to be shown how to do a speedrun of Outlast on the insane difficulty mode. If you can do it, you'll earn the Lunatic trophy (which is gold). Note that insane mode is based on "Nightmare" difficuulty mode, but there are no checkpoints and you can't save the game! If you die you will need to start from the very beginning...
