Bethesda have announced that Shinji Mikami’s The Evil Within has been delayed to allow the team at Tango Softworks to further balance and refine the game in order to deliver the polished, terrifying pure survival horror experience they set out to create.
The game will now be available in North America on 21st October, in Australia on 23rd October, and throughout Europe on 24th October, 2014.
Along with the delay Bethesda have revealed pre-order DLC for The Evil Within – The Fighting Chance Pack.
The Fighting Chance Pack includes:
- Medical Kit – A vital health enhancement to enable Sebastian to fight on.
- Green Gel – Used to upgrade Sebastian’s attributes.
- Double Barrel Shotgun and Three Shells – A larger and more formidable shotgun than the regular shotgun, it’s useful for tight situations with multiple encroaching enemies.
- An Incendiary Agony Bolt – Capable of showering nearby enemies with damaging fire sparks.
- A Poison Agony Bolt – Will draw enemies towards it and poison them, allowing Sebastian time for a quick escape.
Accompanying the announcement was a new trailer showing a group of excitable Yanks ‘Terrified’ whilst playing the game. Check it out.
