Recent Release: The Evil Within 2

Past Highlights: The Evil Within

In Development: Ghostwire: Tokyo

In 2010, legendary game developer, Shinji Mikami, founded his own private studio with Tango Gameworks. However, when the company hit money troubles, Zenimax Media picked them up, adding them to their collection of in-house studios.

Their main output has consisted of the Evil Within series: the first was frightening, weird, and distinct. The second was slick, refined, and accessible. Both resulted in incredible modern horror games, yet both sold in mediocre numbers.

Ghostwire: Tokyo, is their new action/horror game, excitingly taking a much different approach then Evil Within, as it's filled with colorful visuals, a trippy aesthetic, and an ethereal first-person view. It also happens to be a PS5 console exclusive, which is...awkward?

Regardless of their products not hitting the big time, this is a big addition to the Xbox family: the studio holds a team of iconic Japanese devs, with an ability to take unhinged concepts and deliver them into kick-ass products.
