Just released this week the development of The Evil Within began in 2010. In the same year Mikami´s development company Tango Gameworks was acqired by Bethesda Softworks who finally published The Evil Within.

As the main character Sebastian Castellano the player struggles through a never ending nightmare of harassment, disgust, cruelty and fear. For saving and character development there is a special retreat wich can be reached through every mirror in the game. Ammunition and items are rare, but it´s possible to for example craft bolts for the crossbow out of the parts of disarmed traps. For permanent death zombies sometimes have to be burned when downed - but think twice on which enemy you should spend your last match!

Even as a long time Silent Hill fan I'm convinced by the pressing atmosphere and the remarkably frightening monster design in The Evil Within. A must-have for fans of that genre!
