- This review is about the edition: Standard
A true masterpiece in the psychological horror genre, with elements of science fiction, bearing the signature of Shinji Mikami. It is exactly what a fan of the genre expects: mysterious, dark, violent, repulsive, sadistic. Truly, as an antagonist, Ruvik is a diabolical genius and his story, which we get to know as we progress in the game, is very interesting. The characters are serious, mysterious or supernatural (such as Tatiana and the tenant of the neighboring room in the safe place of Beacon Mental Hospital), laconic, with hidden motives some and the dialogues are very measured, without humor, something that is positively evaluated in this type of games. This is exactly what makes The Evil Within even more mysterious, along with one more element: we never get the answers we want, not even at the end of the game. We are left with question marks - covered by the poorly made, unfortunately, DLC. This game, compared to others of its kind, harmoniously combines horror with action, without having an imbalanced result. The great variety of enemies and the imagination in their design, prove how serious work was done by the designers. It is a true hell in akumu mode, but at the same time it is a real achievement, for those who manage it. In the beautiful safe rooms, you will enjoy the gentle music (clair de lune), taking a breath, preparing your next move. A serious problem that this game faces is the lack of good weapon handling and the fact that one must rely exclusively on the agony crossbow and bolts to finish the game, at the highest difficulty levels. The unjustifiably much blood, splattered all over Sebastian's body, along with his violent deaths (dismemberment), is an element of exaggeration in the game, but rather, in a way, fits with the overall atmosphere of horror and death. If there was an option to hide the excessively violent scenes, it would be good. The graphics are somewhat dull, one can discern a lack of clarity in the image, but let's not forget that this is a game from over a decade ago. Additionally, from level 11 onwards, the game takes on a different character, becoming somewhat less interesting, with battles in open and brightly lit areas, reminiscent of a bombed city. Finally, don't think too much, buy it at a low price! It is one of the first in its genre. Far better than The Evil Within 2.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful? At first, it may seem a little strange with its graphics, but they give it a unique touch because it is a bit of an old game. However, those who enjoy horror, supernatural, and survival genres will love it! The game is amazing in terms of sound! And the story is very well done! It's a great game that didn't get the recognition it deserves! For those who play it, it is necessary to also play the second game, which has upgraded graphics! Amazing game!

Those who want to enjoy playing a game that resembles a movie like The Last of Us, for example, and be horror, then this is a very strong choice!! Awesome atmosphere, very gory, many bosses, and a lot of shooting even though it starts stealthy in the first two chapters because it actually teaches you the gameplay. It has moments that allow you to relax and moments where you are on edge. I don't consider it as difficult as they say because it's not as unfair as a game if you pay attention to the time you play and make proper use of ammunition, and the puzzles are not as difficult as those in Resident Evil, not at all. Hello to those who say that it doesn't have good graphics, the game is very well-designed and has a cinematic aura, unlike the second one that personally reminded me of a TV movie.

Very good game, a little boring after chapter 10 but overall I liked it, it's something different from resident evil & silent hill. Those of you who say it's so difficult and can't finish it probably haven't played really difficult games.

I finished the game with patches from 2019 and the framedrops were insane. Unfortunately, the characters lacked personality (du bum tss) and the voice acting in some parts was laughable (losing our minds yaaaay). Lastly, the gameplay was acceptable but it doesn't even come close to Resident Evil 4, not even with a prayer to the Virgin Mary. Stay away.

What can I say about this amazing game? It belongs to the horror, survival category, but it would be a shame to categorize it only there. Those who want one of the best action adventure games released for the PS4, play it and you won't be disappointed.
Its duration is quite long, reaching 10 hours, but I never found myself getting bored for a moment. The only negative thing is that it doesn't let you save, and this in itself has long intervals between saves. However, this only happens in the first two levels, after that it saves more frequently.Translated from Greek ·- Graphics

The Evil Within is an atmospheric and terrifying video game that achieved what so many other games of this genre have not been able to in recent years, which is to become an instant classic. It managed to be very good in all aspects, managing to pleasantly surprise you, which is not something you often see happening in a survival horror video game. Its only drawback is that it is not perfect, but we cannot be ungrateful when we have something unexpectedly great for which Shinji Mikami should feel proud.

Impressive atmosphere, nice story but at some points excessively difficult, which ruins the gaming experience. The checkpoints are placed in random spots throughout the game, and you don't have the ability to save whenever and wherever you want, nor to skip the cinematics, resulting in constantly seeing the same things without reason. Thankfully, I downloaded it from the PS store at a ridiculous price, I wouldn't pay more than 16-17 euros for this game.

The Evil Within is filled with terrifying creatures that enjoy every opportunity to take you out. There are the vague human monsters that flood the initial chapters, but as the game progresses, you are faced with increasingly difficult enemies. However, no matter where you are, the danger of being taken out is great. The Evil Within is a violent experience where the slightest loss of focus can turn you into a bloody mess on the floor.
It does a commendable job of pushing you to your limits, but there are moments when it crosses that line and greatly hinders the gaming experience. One of the biggest culprits of this problem is the autosave system, a fantastic and unpredictable thing that doesn't seem to behave logically. It generally records your progress after major encounters, but there are times when it saves in the middle of a battle for no apparent reason, and other times when it has been so long since you last saw the small icon on your screen that you feel like you're in a desert, desperately searching for water, cursed by the sun and its painful harshness. Often, you find yourself replaying certain sections without clear reason, as the game's impressive atmosphere becomes less interesting each time. (Note: there is a Manual Save system, but it is only accessible at the beginning of each chapter, meaning that the further you progress, the more you subject yourself to the quirks of autosave.)

I am in the tenth chapter. Extremely boring, bad handling, bad graphics in general, very uninteresting. I would not recommend it. Extremely difficult and it gives you very few bullets, resulting in not being enough at all... Maybe I won't be able to finish it. Although I don't know anyone who has managed to. Complete disappointment

It reminds me of RE, Silent Hill. I had a feeling of fear, suspense, and horror with the bosses. It's worth having in your collection, and I would say it falls under the category of Survival Horror

It's worth having it in your collection, especially the limited edition! It's not perfect, but it manages well in all areas. If we want to see the same things in all games and not see fresh things, then we shouldn't call ourselves gamers. Get it for around 20 and you will enjoy it

I start with the story, which is typical with some good moments, writing that if you put it aside and it doesn't bother you, you will truly enjoy one of the best action horror games in its category.
The game in the initial chapters reminds me of Resi 4, but as it progresses, it plays with the player's psychology and strongly reminds me of the Silent Hill series. However, what sets it apart from other survival games in the category is that even the simplest battles are difficult, as enemies and especially bosses are tough to defeat due to the game providing you with limited ammunition, which may initially make it challenging for some, but I really liked it. Overall, the gameplay and gunplay are very well-structured.
In terms of the game's technical aspects, it has some frame rate issues on the PS4 (at least in the initial chapters) and the camera is a bit cumbersome, but you get used to it after a while. I would also like to add that there is an update for the game that gives you the option to play without the known black bars that it had in its initial release, as if you were watching a movie.
Finally, regarding the duration, the game is divided into 15 chapters with an average of about 15 to 17 hours for a first playthrough on the survival difficulty level (that's how long it took me approximately). Oh, and I have to say that it has a very good music and sound design that keeps you on edge, which is a big plus for horror games.
Overall, for those of you who are fans of the genre, buy it with closed eyes, especially at this price, it's worth the money. It's not a coincidence that the great Shinji Mikami, the "father" of Resident Evil, worked on it, so you understand what kind of game we're talking about.

Very scary but heavier than Resident Evil and Silent Hill. I stopped it about halfway through because all of this constantly stresses me out, especially the bosses that chase me. I was very bothered by the two black bars and the frame rate.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful? - This review is about the edition: Standard
It is quite scary and somewhat morbid and heavy for my taste. It is, in fact, a level above Resident Evil in my opinion when it comes to the horror element. So I believe it is mainly for fans of the genre. For its genre, on the other hand, it is exceptional.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful? - This review is about the edition: Standard
Very satisfied with the game! Awesome survival with various intense scenes! Variety in weapons and their upgrades, as well as the variety of monsters and bosses! Finally, a nice story with a crazy background story! We are looking forward to the DLC... I definitely recommend it!

If it had a better viewing camera, it would be much better. But for survival/horror, it's worth trying!

This review is about the edition: StandardResident Evil Within! The game is a reproduction! Those who are fans of horror in games.. The camera will frustrate them a bit and they will struggle badly until they learn the buttons because they put it on survival mode for hardcore gamers to play. Stop starting with maximum difficulty. There are certain games that you have to play on normal mode at first. This particular game has many flaws and yes, it will be difficult for you to learn it, but later on when you play something else, you will be like "this boss looks like that boss from Evil Within" yes, it's that good that it stays in your mind. As for the graphics, Silent Hill had terrible graphics but go play it and see. Those of you who are not little kids and spoiled brats, get it because it's worth it especially at this price. And the next one has also been released now, so it's good to have the back story before you start the next one.
