Bethesda Softworks announces a new update is now available in
The Evil
Within 2 that adds the ability to play Tango Gameworks' horror game from a
first-person perspective. Here's
a trailer showing off
some of the game's frightfulness from a new point of view, and here are more
details:
If you already have The Evil Within 2, changing to first-person
is as simple as flipping a switch in the menu. You’ll be able to change this at
any point, so you can experience the game however you like. If you haven’t had a
chance to check out The Evil Within 2 and want to try it out, you can download
the Free Trial and play through the opening chapters of the game including the
new first-person mode. All save data will carry over if you choose to upgrade to
the full game.
“A lot of players like playing horror games in first-person, so for those who
want to see some of the game’s situations through Sebastian’s eyes, it’s a
really neat experience,” said Tango Gameworks’ producer, Shinsaku Ohara. “I
think exploring Union in first-person makes the scale feel even bigger than it
does when you’re in third-person. Also, being able to see our environments and
enemies up close allows players to get an even better look at how much effort
went into their designs.”
