In The Evil Within, you play as detective Sebastian Castellanos, who — after investigating a gruesome mass murder with his partners — becomes ambushed, knocked unconscious, and awakens in a twisted, nightmarish world filled with horrifying creatures and deranged horrors. 
 
The game emphasizes survival horror: instead of being a straightforward action shooter, resources are scarce, enemies are brutal and often dangerous, and survival usually requires stealth, cunning, and careful decision-making rather than brute force. 
 
With its disturbing atmosphere, psychological horror elements, and deeply unsettling environments, The Evil Within aims to deliver a tense, frightening, and immersive horror experience — perfect if you enjoy games that keep you on edge rather than fast-paced action.
