The Evil Within: The Assignment Review | Metal Arcade

Metal Arcade: Rick Bakker writes:

When done correctly, DLC for a video game should enhance or expand the experience of the main title to justify its additional price tag. For completionists, it can give us more of what we want from a game we enjoyed. Alternatively, it can change the gameplay within the same world, giving us a new take on a familiar experience. The first DLC episode from The Evil Within, The Assignment takes the latter path – stripping all aspects of action-oriented gameplay and shifting to pure survival horror, providing a more intense experience than the main title achieved.
