Outlast has returned for season 2 after the show's first season intrigued the audience with its execution and dramatic twists. The series got its second edition with 16 contestants living in Little Duncan Bay of Alaska, with freezing temperatures, constant wetness, limited sunlight, and few fresh-water sources to survive.
Netflix's Tudum introduces the cast members of the new season, including well-known names like Drake Vliem, Tre Thomas, Emily Johnston, and Meghan Buchanan. The synopsis states:
"With multi-tools in their pockets, a thirst for adventure in their hearts, and squirrel meat in their stomachs (if they’re lucky), a new group of outdoorsmen and women will answer the call of the wild in Outlast Season 2."
