this may be one of the few survival horror games where people might like shed it to your can a survival horror game tug at your heartstrings and scare the hell out of you the developers behind evil within to think the answer to that question is yes and they're offering up a sort of hybrid horror experience as a foundation for manipulating all your feels so even within picks up three years after the events of the first game his daughter who he had believed it died many years ago in a house fire is actually still alive and you're gonna have to go back in to to get her my preview time took me through two very different boss fights with some exploration and puzzle solving in between the first fight was pretty status quo conserve ammo use the environment bring down scary monster you know the drill the second fight against a grotesque creature named obscura with ballet slippers on her feet and an old camera for ahead required a little more creativity on my part there's an effort here to balance these sort of classic and modern elements of horror gaming and it worked really well in the demo the fight itself should have originated from the design and the design originated from the character of Stefano once that design came out and we saw the camera apparatus how can we use this in in battle or use this as an effective medium so not to see visually intriguing or or scary but actually involve it in the gameplay somewhat between these old and new school boss battles I guided Sebastian through a decrepit city hall with some scary secrets the puzzles weren't terribly difficult but there was absolutely a silent hill's PT vibe happening in the repeating corridors which johannes admits was an influence I think any survival horror fan was a fan of that game so I think it's hard to Nazi influence of that in anything that will probably come out an exit it looks like the game will offer some linear gameplay to ratchet up specific moments and jump scares but also has sections with more open-world options where player choice factors into your experience overall we're looking forward to shedding some tears regardless of the emotions attached evil within two hits PC PlayStation 4 and Xbox one on October 13th you
