Not Everything is as it Seems in This Trailer for ‘The Evil Within: The Consequence’
Bethesda has released a new trailer for the second story expansion to come to Shinji Mikami’s survival horror game, The Evil Within. Dubbed The Consequence, this DLC wraps up Juli Kidman’s story. The add-on is available now for $9.99, or you can get it as a part of the game’s $19.99 season pass, which also includes The Assignment — the first half of Juli’s story — and the upcoming third expansion, The Executioner.
You’ll obviously want to finish The Assignment before diving into this. If you haven’t grabbed it already, it’s definitely worth playing.
The Consequence is out now for PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, but it was a cheerful illustrator from England who helped to define the terrifying war-torn imagery that inspired what we now know as Grimdark (a hybrid genre combining horror with sci-fi/fantasy).
Unfortunately for fans of Warhammer 40,000, Trench Crusade and countless other sources of Grimdark thrills, veteran artist John Blanche passed away this week after struggling with health issues for the past few years.
While the artist retired back in 2023, he leaves us with an enormous legacy of iconic artwork that continues to inspire gamers and storytellers around the world to this very day.
The news is especially gloomy as it was only last year that Daniel Lowman and Napoleon Dynamite himself Jon Heder released The Grim & the Dark: The Search for John Blanche, a documentary following Heder’s exploration of the Grimdark genre culminating in a heartwarming encounter with Blanche in his own home.
Below is one of my favorite pieces by Blanche, his highly influential depiction of Warhammer 40k’s God-Emperor of Mankind on his Golden Throne.
We send our deepest condolences to John Blanche’s family, friends, and fans.
