Sebastian relied on strength, toughness, loads of green goop, and a small arsenal to get him through The Evil Within. "What‘s most interesting about Kidman is how differently she plays from Sebastian. Those looking for an action-oriented experience, like The Evil Within itself, are probably going to be pretty disappointed. When I say different perspective, I mean it. Don’t misunderstand me: The Evil Within’s DLC isn’t a necessity, but it you want a different perspective on The Evil Within’s world, it’s worth checking out. Leave it to Tango Gameworks to prove me wrong. I really wasn’t sure, mostly because I didn’t think the game could really support, or really needed, DLC. What, I wondered, could Tango possibly have up their sleeve? Maybe some challenge rooms pitting Sebastian against some of The Evil Within’s bosses? Perhaps a prequel campaign set before the events of the main game? Or maybe a side story focusing on another member of the game’s cast?
The main game leaves things open for a proper sequel, but doesn’t leave much room for the short stories that have come to define downloadable content. When Bethesda and Tango Gameworks announced that The Evil Within would be getting DLC, I didn’t really know what to expect.
