In The Evil Within 2, you play as Detective Sebastian Castellanos, who has a chance to save his daughter. Enter a world filled with nightmares and bring her back.

You are Detective Sebastian Castellanos, and you're at your lowest point. When given a chance to save your daughter, you must enter a world filled with nightmares and discover the dark origins of a once-idyllic town to bring her back. Horrifying threats emerge from every corner as the world twists and warps around you. Will you face adversity head on with weapons and traps, or sneak through the shadows to survive?

Detective Sebastian Castellanos has lost everything, including his daughter, Lily. To save her, he is forced to partner with Mobius, the shadowy organization responsible for the destruction of Sebastian's former life. Sebastian must descend into one of their terrible creations, the disturbing world of Union. Horrifying threats emerge from every corner, and he must rely on his wits to survive. For his last chance at redemption, the only way out is in.

Get closer to the nightmare than ever before in The Evil Within 2. If the horrific world and hideous creatures weren’t terrifying enough already, the entirety of the game can now be played in first-person on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, thanks to the latest free update.

“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.”

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.

Key Features:

  • Story of Redemption: Sebastian must descend into the nightmare to win back his life and family.
  • Discover Horrifying Domains: Explore as far or quickly as you dare through a world where nothing is quite what it seems, though be sure to prepare wisely.
  • Choose How to Survive: Attack from the shadows with the crossbow, run like hell, or go in guns blazing with very limited ammo.
  • Face Disturbing Enemies: Survive encounters with sadistic enemies and meet characters who may lead – or mislead – you on your path to redemption.
  • Visceral Horror and Suspense: Enter a twisted world filled with anxiety-inducing thrills and disturbing horrors around every corner.

The Evil Within 2 is currently available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
