The PlayStation Japan channel began streaming a new trailer for Resident Evil director Shinji Mikami‘s The Evil Within (PsychoBreak) survival horror game on Thursday. The video reveals the game’s characters and monsters.
The story follows a detective named Sebastian and his partner as they head to the scene of a ghastly mass killing. Sebastian then witnesses the other police officers get killed off one by one, and just as the unknown assailant is about to attack him, he loses consciousness. He wakes up in a world of madness where apparitions lurk and death is never far away.
The game will arrive on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC and next-generation consoles via Bethesda Softworks this year.
