You can even stealth-attack bosses occasionally if you wish, and those that you can’t can be taken down with a pistol if you want. It helps that it’s fun to play too, with a fairly satisfying balance of stealth and action, leaving it up to you on how you play. Likewise the focus on Union and keeping the location-jumping to a minimum means you usually have your bearings and there’s an actual sense of progression. Evil Within 2 makes the story more personal and in doing so makes the whole Mobius/STEM angle actually interesting. The story was forgettable and the location jumped around so much you never felt you were in a real place. The other two things Evil Within 2 corrects are story and focus, neither of which were hot in the first game.
The game’s certainly very Silent Hill, the way it alternates between town exploration and more confined (and probably more horrific) sections. There are loads of little moments like that in the game and I appreciated the opportunity to find them myself. I was really impressed when I wandered in to a random house and it turned out to be haunted, with a terrifying ghost who would reappear again later. While the town of Union (and surrounding areas) isn’t strictly speaking open-world, it is a large area that Sebastian can explore at will, with loads of side-quests and hidden secrets. Tango Gameworks have managed this by improving several areas of Evil Within and, perhaps most importantly, adding a semi-open world feel where players can explore at will. The Evil Within 2, however, manages to do the sequel thing correctly: it innovates, it changes what needs to be changed, and while it plays in the same enjoyable fashion it doesn’t feel like I’m repeating myself. We just posted our review of Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, and while a great game it didn’t feel much different from Shadow of Mordor. One of my biggest gripes with gaming sequels is when they feel just like the last game with a few minor extras, so you literally feel you’re playing the same game again. Unfortunately things couldn’t be less stable, as weird twisted monsters roam the landscape. Now three years later, Mobius is asking Sebastian to go into a new supposedly more stable STEM to recover the daughter he’d thought dead. There Detective Sebastian Castellanos investigates Beacon Hospital, and finds him and his teammates sucked into a nightmare called STEM created by the Mobius Group. It was rather confusing and the story’s wasn’t its best part. If you don’t remember much about the last game’s story, we don’t blame you.
THE EVIL WITHIN 2 STORY HOW TO
How to activate First Person Mode in Evil Within 2! How To Beat Every Boss Battle in The Evil Within 2! We enjoyed the first game but there was definitely room for improvement. We started the year with the fantastic Resident Evil VII: Biohazard, and now just in time for Halloween we’ve got The Evil Within 2 from Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami and his team Tango Gameworks. It’s fair to say that there aren’t enough AAA survival horror games these days (thanks Konami!) but this year we’ve been especially blessed.
