We have more details about the season below from the devs, and the full patch notes can be found on their website.
The Outlast Trials – Season 3.1: Prime Time
- New Limited-Time Event – Prime Time: The "family" is back together, and Franco Barbi joins Coyle and Gooseberry for a depraved group therapy experience. Participate in a selection of Trials to earn unique rewards before the event ends.
- New Limited-Time Event Catalog: Spend your hard earned Prime Time Event Tokens on grotesque and exclusive cosmetics—but be warned, unspent tokens vanish once the event concludes.
- Two New MK-Challenges:
- FUMIGATE THE FACTORY – Retire aging workers with a gas that sterilizes the corporate bloodstream.
- REDEEM YOUR FREEDOM – Collect tickets like your life depends on it—because it just might.
- Revamped Genesis Program: The Genesis Program has been revamped to include all Trials and MK-Challenges added to the game since release and are organised by thematic.
- Group Finder (Replaces Quickplay): A new system to help Reagents connect with like-minded test subjects for faster, more relevant matchmaking. Accessible from the Terminal's main screen, the Group Finder allows players to connect with others looking to participate in the same activity.
- Pause Menu Rework: The new Pause Menu is built for survival, featuring three tabs: Menu, Tasks, and Loadout. Whether you're checking your objectives, gearing up, or just catching your breath, everything you need to stay alive (and stay focused) is now just a tab away.
- Gameplay Fixes, Balancing & New Features: From enhanced Trial Maker tools to imposter behavior updates and stamina item tweaks, this update refines the chaos.
