    It may look like a damning indictment of socialized health care - not to mention food preparation standards - but the above footage is actually the launch trailer for Whistleblower, a DLC expansion slated to reach survival horror hit Outlast on May 6. Though Whistleblower offers players a first-hand look at the events leading up to the horror experienced in Outlast, it's not quite a prequel. According to developer Red Barrels, Whistleblower sets the stage for Outlast, then adds a wholly new chapter to the end of the story. The key thing to know though, is that Whistleblower still takes place within the Mount Massive Asylum, so expect the same kind of eerie, gory scares that made Outlast a hit. On debut, Whistleblower will be available at a price of $9 from both the PlayStation Network Store and Steam. More information is available on the developer's website.

    So there's good news and bad news: Outlast, the terrifying asylum game from Red Barrels, is 33 percent off right now, making it just $13. That's the good news. The bad news is that there's also a new expansion for Outlast coming up, and this means we're going to play more Outlast. The first round was almost too much terror for one lifetime. The expansion is titled Whistleblower and it tells the tale of Miles Upshur, the man who sent that tip about the horrors of Mount Massive Asylum to the journalist starring in the full game. Miles discovers first-hand (and finger, if the teaser image is anything to go by) the torture and experiments conducted on the patients of Mount Massive, and he gets involved in the slaughter preceding Outlast's main story. Anyone interested in more Outlast, hands up! ... Ew, hands down.
