8 Video Game Updates That Changed EVERYTHING

4. The Evil Within 2 - First Person Mode

GTA Online Heists

While it definitely took the sequel to get the horror train rolling, The Evil Within 2 is a fantastic example of body horror, suspense, and paralyzing fear that every survival horror fan should play.

Centering on a simulation of an idyllic town gone wrong, Sebastian must survive against wave after wave of disgustingly mutated enemies and of course a slew of big bad bosses who want to turn his insides into outsides.

Yet for fans looking for even more up close and personal scares, Bethesda decided to put out an update that changes everything you thought you knew about The Evil Within 2. This is because the aptly titled First Person Mode update allows players to now switch between third and first-person perspective on the fly.

Suddenly even familiar locations feel alien, and the limited peripheral view given by the new mode amps up the tension considerably.

Plus can you honestly say you wanted to see these horrible beasts in even more detail as they tear you limb from limb? Well, probably it seems, as this update was universally praised for breathing new life into this horror gem.
