This guide will show you how to beat the recreation of the tutorial map, which is now called Freedom Mansion Rebirth, in The Outlast Trials.
Basic Walkthrough
The mansion mimics the tutorial map but in reverse, showcasing the lessons learned in the trials. It’s divided into five distinct objectives:
- Returning the boxes
- Obtaining the keys
- Tuning the frequencies
- Returning the reel
- Leaving the mansion
Feel free to explore at your own pace; there’s no rush as there’s no time limit to complete these tasks.
Returning the Boxes
When you start the level, you’ll find yourself in a room like this:
Your objective here is to return the boxes to their original rooms from the tutorial. Each box will be placed in front of the corridor leading to its destination, past locked gates.
There are two rooms to focus on:
- Room 1
- Room 2
Each room will be guarded by a large grunt. However, you can bypass them using a stun/blind rig or by utilizing bricks and bottles scattered throughout the level.
Remember, there are alternative routes in the corridors to avoid the big grunts, especially if you hear them nearby. Utilize stealth and darkness to your advantage.
Once you’ve returned both boxes, proceed downstairs.
Obtaining the keys
Once you go downstairs, you’ll reach a spot that looks like this.
Be sure to keep in mind the two main clues displayed on the televisions because they’ll change every time you play, and you won’t see them on your screen.
Turn around and go through these doors and the gate ahead to access the Courtyard area.
In the Courtyard, you’ll encounter just one enemy, the Night Hunter.
Since he can see in the dark, you have two options:
- Sneak past him quietly by keeping your noise level low and moving while crouched to check if he notices you.
- Equip stun/blinding devices or gather bricks and bottles for defense. There are plenty of bricks scattered on the ground and near the walls.
Look for keys on the bodies scattered around beyond the gate.
Remember to search only the bodies marked with the correct symbols; otherwise, you might get a shocking surprise.
Once you’ve got both keys, return to the mansion and unlock the gates.
Tuning the Frequencies
After unlocking both gates, your next task is to adjust the frequencies of the transmitters, which are located inside the areas previously blocked by the gates.
There will be three frequencies on the map that you need to adjust.
They look like this:
Usually, they spawn in a 2-to-1 configuration (2 in one sector, 1 in the other), but occasionally, they might all spawn on the same side of the map, although this is extremely rare.
Each sector will have one regular expop, which can be easily dealt with using a distraction like a bottle or by using a brick, stun device, or blind rig.
You can also choose to lead them away before searching for your objectives.
It’s advisable to start with the sector on your right (as you enter from the Courtyard) so you can search for the reel while adjusting the transmitters.
Some spawns might be harder to notice, such as:
- In the far back of the kitchen (Right sector)
- In the room immediately following the projector room (Left sector)
Once you’ve located all the transmitters in the right sector, you can retrieve the reel if you haven’t already and exit through the previously barricaded door in the kitchen to easily access the hallway and enter the left sector.
Keep in mind that the left sector might sometimes spawn an imposter after the projector room, so be alert if you hear the elevator prompt.
Returning the Reel
The reel will be located in the sector on the right side as you come from the Courtyard.
There’s a barricaded door next to the gate, and you can also identify it by the stairs nearby.
You can choose to search for the reel while looking for the transmitters on this side of the map. It’s easier to find than the transmitters because it only spawns in this sector. If you’re having trouble finding it, try looking without your night vision, as the reel will stand out in the dark.
In this sector, there are 14 possible reel spawns divided across 6 rooms:
- Entry Room (1st Room): 1 possible spawn
- Prayer Room (2nd Room): 2 possible spawns
- Room before Courtyard Corridor (3rd Room): 4 possible spawns
- Courtyard Corridor (4th Room): 3 possible spawns
- Dining Room (5th Room): 2 possible spawns
- Kitchen (6th Room): 2 possible spawns
Once you’ve obtained the reel and adjusted the frequencies in this area, you can exit through the barricaded door in the kitchen or return through the hallway you came in from.
Then, enter the opposite sector, remembering that there will be an expop there, and insert the reel into the projector.
Be cautious because after entering the room following the projector, an imposter can sometimes spawn, so listen for the elevator prompt.
Escape
After completing the tasks with the reels and signals, it’s time to leave the mansion.
Exit through the now-opened double doors and proceed straight outside.
When you reach the shuttles, turn right to locate a door.
Enter through the door and climb up the ledge. Follow the straightforward path, but make sure you have your stamina replenished before dropping down this ledge.
You will be pursued by a prime asset, so just continue through the corridor.
Once you’ve passed through the corridor, open the door—it’s time for your rebirth.
