This morning we revealed that The Evil Within will be available in North America on October 21, in Australia on October 23, and throughout Europe on October 24, 2014. Shinji Mikami and his team at Tango Gameworks have asked for additional time to further balance and refine the game in order to deliver the polished, terrifying pure survival horror experience they set out to create. We’ve also announced The Evil Within’s pre-order incentive – The Fighting Chance Pack. The Fighting Chance Pack provides players with a handful of additional items that may help them stave off death for a moment longer. 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.
Both the new release date and pre-order incentive are highlighted in our latest video for The Evil Within, which is available for download from our press site (press.bethsoft.com) or via the download link below.
