Outlast, a first-person horror game developed and published by Red Barrels on Steam, has been released on the Linux platform.

The developers from Red Barrels have made the game available for Linux and Mac OS X users. It's one of the best-looking games on Linux, which is a difficult thing to achieve. They haven't said anything about porting the game, but now it's out, and it's not a Beta.

The game is not a shooter, and it's all about survival. Users will have to use the shadows and parkour skills to evade the enemies, which are always coming from different directions, and they never attack from the same spot once.

"In the remote mountains of Colorado, horrors wait inside Mount Massive Asylum. A long-abandoned home for the mentally ill, recently re-opened by the “research and charity” branch of the transnational Murkoff Corporation, the asylum has been operating in strict secrecy… until now," reads the Steam synopsis.

Users will need to have Ubuntu 14, Fedora 21, or Steam OS, a 2.8 GHz Quad Core CPU, 4GB of RA, a 1GB NVIDIA GTX 460 or ATI Radeon HD 6850 video card (OpenGL 4.x needed), and 5GB available HDD space.

More details about the Outlast FPS can be found on Steam.
