About Outbreak
Outbreak is a cooperative survival horror game developed and published by Dead Drop Studios, an independent studio dedicated to reviving the classic survival horror genre. It was released on January 17, 2017, for PC via Steam, and marks the first entry in what has since grown into an ongoing Outbreak series, with sequels including Outbreak: Epidemic and Outbreak: Shades of Horror following in the years since.
The game draws direct inspiration from 1990s and early 2000s survival horror titles, deliberately recreating the tone, pacing, and design philosophy of that era. Players select from a cast of survivor characters caught at the start of a zombie epidemic and fight through claustrophobic, resource-scarce environments where ammunition and supplies run out fast, and every encounter carries real risk. Exploration, puzzle-solving, and careful inventory management sit alongside combat, with the game's difficulty settings shaping how much narrative context is revealed through scattered notes and story elements found along the way.
Combat blends firearms and melee weapons against hordes of the undead, with the game leaning into a genuinely punishing difficulty curve, particularly on its harder settings where resources become extremely tight. Outbreak can be played entirely solo or in online co-op with up to three other players, letting a group of survivors tackle the epidemic together. Several DLC packs are available separately, covering cosmetic items like alternate flashlights, lasers, and player skins.
