Critics praised the series for its eerie atmosphere, strong performances, particularly Patrick Fugit’s portrayal of Kyle Barnes, and the intriguing exploration of demonic possession different from typical horror tropes. Rotten Tomatoes did not compile enough critic reviews for a formal score, but audience feedback reflects appreciation for the show's dark, brooding tone and psychological depth. Some reviewers noted that while the pacing could be slow at times, the buildup added to the suspense and mood, differentiating it from more action-focused supernatural series. Metacritic shows a score around 58/100, indicating mixed or average reviews.

Overall, fans of horror dramas that blend mystery and emotional storytelling may find Outcast a compelling watch.
