What's the status on the game's framerate and aspect ratio?
Shinji Mikami and the team at Tango designed The Evil Within to be played at 30fps and to utilize an aspect ratio of 2.35:1 for all platforms. The team has worked the last four years perfecting the game experience with these settings in mind. For PC players, well provide debug commands on how you can alter the framerate and aspect ratio, but these commands and changes are not recommended or supported and we suggest everyone play the game as it was designed and intended for the best experience.
Does the game support 4K resolution?
Yes. The engine can go even higher if youve got a monitor and video card that supports it.
Can I disable the letterboxing?
The letterboxing (a 2:35:1 aspect ratio) is used for gameplay purposes, as certain elements display in the black areas of the screen. On PC, you can turn off the bars and force the game to render full-screen. However this option is not supported. Were keeping the ability to turn off bars as a console-only command that we will share at launch
How can I turn on the debug console?
There will be a command-line option to enable the console. More at launch.
What can I do with the debug console?
Gameplay cheats, as well as advanced camera controls will all be available via console commands. More to come!
