I think it looks better than the 1st, So glad they snuck in some gameplay at the end.

 

[SlasherJPC]

I teared up. I'm really curious what engine they are using this time

 

[Gunslinger]

Hopefully the game is more stable this time around and not a sub 20fps game like the first one.(ps4 version).

 

[GuitarAtomik]

That is a trippy ass trailer.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

Going to be released soon and just few glimpse of gameplay? When are they going to show more? There is no otehr E3 in-between.
Look at Wolfenstein II: they showed enough to please the fans.

 

[darkslayer101]

Shinji you the best!

 

[Anung]

Day one.

Just hope it doesn't run like total shit.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I liked what I saw in the trailer. Cautiously Optimistic. I think reading a preview or two will be all I need. Just wanna know what engine they're on and what changes they made from the first game.

 

[Bishop89]

full screen.
Thank god

Looks awesome and mindfuckery.

 

[Gator86]

Was disappointed with the first's abrupt changes in tone/gameplay, to the point where I wonder if they knew what they wanted the game to be to begin with. Still good game, so curious to see how this one winds up shaping up.



Either keep the stealth/limited ammo/feeling of dread exploring and lose the monster arenas, or just have those, not some hodgepodge of both please.

Agreed. EW1 was at it's best slow and tense, using stealth or creeping around looking for enemies. When the game turned into a bad RE4 clone, it struggled badly. I hope they can pull this off.

 

[dmr87]

So good, can't wait.

 

[Mr. PlayStation]

If Last of Us went full on horror, that's the visual vibe i got out of Evil Within 2, the first game at least to me was a the best survival horror experience in the last decade. That gameplay montage with that sweet smooth lighting/animation and effects work, couldnt have asked for more, cant wait for October 13th

 

[MrCunningham]

What are the platforms?

Can't wait for this one...

 

[Hatty]

Is this IDtech 6?

 

[Luminaire]

What are the platforms?

Safe to assume PS4/XB1/PC like last time. No last gen this time.

 

[Terareflection]

Very good trailer. I was impressed. Release date is a pleasant surprise, too.

Now we just need confirmation that Mikami is directing.

I thought the leak said he was?

Just fast forward a bit.

Thanks! Skipped the first - this looks interesting. I want to see a walkthrough now.

 

[Planisphaerium]

Got them bethesda dollars now. Looks amazing.

 

[StewboaT_]

Awesome trailer...day 1 for me

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

Any chances of a gameplay demo tomorrow?

 

[SmackAttack]

Did not expect this year. Really hope they're not using idTech again but if they are and it looks that nice and clean then that's awesome. Day 1.

 

[rgoulart]

For those that played the first, how well did it handle the story? These visuals, combined with the main focus being saving your daughter, seem like they could be really emotionally interesting if given to the right team.

The story of the first game is complete non sense. I'm at chapter 12 (of 15) and I have no idea what's going on at all. With that said, it's a great game to scratch that resident evil 4 itch, and by the trailer, the sequel looks better in every way.

 

[The Lamp]

This is easily the most interesting horror franchise to come out of the past several years. Mikami's horror ideas are splendid and this was his chance to flesh them out. Can't wait to see what he does next!

 

[MiamiWesker]

Fuck yes. Mikami the god with another classic.

 

[HoJu]

Looks cool but hope they spend less time on the story. Had no idea what was going on in the first and didn't care

 

[brianmcdoogle]

I think The Evil Within is the worst retail game I've played to completion this generation top to bottom. It had terrible performance and bugs, the bosses were atrocious, the story was a mess, the music was uninspired and predictable, the designs of the enemies were uninteresting, the characters annoying, and on top of it all nothing in it was frightening to me as someone who doesn't really ever play horror games.

Yet, I'll try and give this one a chance as well. Trailer and gameplay looked kind of interesting.

 

[.Anema]

I'm waiting for this since I finished the first one. And looks awesome! DAY ONE!!

 

[Ghost Slayer]

That's a great boxart

 

[steven28]

Wow 13th of october! Excellent.

[B.O.O.M]

Overall bad trailer. The gameplay at the end saved it somewhat.

 

[Gbraga]

It was actually an interesting story, imo, but it was more focused on its fiction, while this one seems to be much more personal, exploring the protagonist and his past, so I can't say if it's the kind of story that will be able to emotionally resonate with a lot of people because the first didn't even try.

I'm certainly intrigued, though, and it's quite an interesting premise, after the ending of the first game.

 

[brandonh83]

LOVE the candle wax marketing aesthetic.

 

[nextgeneration]

This is what I wished Resident Evil 7 would have been. Cannot wait! Bethesda has perfect 1-2 combination in October!

DLC will explain the story, but you can just watch on youtube if you don't want to fork over $20.

It's actually pretty intricate.

 

[PR_rambo]

Time to fire up beast mode on the PRO and finally finish the first one

 

[Voliko]

oh my god

Finally something I can get excited about

 

[ronaldthump]

goobelleey goob sorta trailer. meant to be horror but it was mostly dull.

Bad trailer that didnt emphaise the horror elements.

 

[Skux]

This trailer is absolutely Kojima-level crazy.

 

[Samanosuke Akechi]

 

[Death Metalist]

So fucking good. I can't believe it's out this year, been hoping for a sequel for so long.

 

[DVCY201]

Gotta say, the Art Team is sooo fucking on point. It's something that's been sorely missed in RE

 

[WinFonda]

it looked like quite a big leap graphically, more diverse and colorful environments too

i didn't really notice any jank in the gameplay snippets

 

[burgerdog]

Did not expect this year. Really hope they're not using idTech again but if they are and it looks that nice and clean then that's awesome. Day 1.

id tech 6 is legit, no worries at all if they're using that.

 

[Kataploom]

OMG I loved everything from that trailer, specially the music

 

[Sanctuary]

Looks like someone really enjoyed the Hannibal series.

OMG I loved everything from that trailer, specially the music

The cover of Duran Duran's "Ordinary World" was kind of bad.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

This trailer is absolutely Kojima-level crazy.

Noted. I was more wanting to play the first game to get a RE4 experience, but this trailer made me wonder if there was a cool narrative I somehow didn't hear about.

 

[Spoo]

The tech actually looked pretty similar to what they used for the last game (id tech 5, modified).

Other than that, stoked.
