The Evil Within 2, the survival horror sequel developed by Shinji Mikami's Tango Gameworks, launched less than ten days ago and already folks have found a way to enable a first person mode of sorts on PC.
Here's how you can enable it, courtesy of DSOGaming:
All you have to do is open the console and type “pl_FPS 1”. In order to enable the in-game console, you’ll have to follow this guide:
- Create a shortcut on your desktop and add: +com_allowconsole 1
- Start the game from the shortcut
- While in game, press the insert key to bring the console
In his review, Rosh pointed out that The Evil Within 2 is a pretty good game though not quite as scary as he would have liked.
As a horror game, I’m not sure The Evil Within 2 could stand up on its own. With the occasional jump scare and some good direction you might get the right tone once in a while, but for the most part the game fails to deliver on the overall sense of horror. Behind that, though, is a great game with interesting enemies, a story that makes no sense but doesn’t need to and some really good piece of imaginative art design. It’s probably better that it’s less scary, the game will hopefully find a home for people looking for something on the borders of scary rather than just those few hardcore horror fans.
Although it tries a little too hard and fails to properly capture the best horror tropes, The Evil Within 2 is a great, imaginative game with enough tension that you probably won't mind the relative lack of horror.
Have you been enjoying the game so far? Are you going to try this hidden first person mode? Let us know in the comments!
