The Evil Within 2 gives you more options to play your way in a much bigger survival-horror playground than the original. Although a disjointed plot and weak protagonist make it slow to get started, being pursued through an intriguingly bizarre world by pl...
Haunting and macabre atmosphere that pulls you into the lead character's struggle, Varied and inventive level design that switches things up considerably, Improved upgrading and weapon system that allows for more customization based on player choice, Soli

The Evil Within 2 improves on the sequel in every way, while retaining the core of what made the first one special. Better gameplay, better story, and more options make this an all around excellent survival horror experience...
Abstract: You've seen the trailer. You've read Jordan's tepid preview. Now you can watch over a half hour of pure, uncut The Evil Within 2 footage for yourself. It's the classic third step before step four, buying the game and never playing it and playing Dota or s...
