<p>Bethesda Softworks and Tango Gameworks finally delivered the first official trailer video for the first downloadable content expansion for The Evil Within&period; The new trailer for The Assignment includes some of the more story-related content I have been wanting to see for the game&period; The new footage is encouraging&period; The Evil Within delivered a fun&comma; survival-horror video game experience that had great atmosphere and ambiance&period; The score was good&comma; but the story fell a little flat&period; In addition&comma; a ton of questions remained unanswered&period; However&comma; The Assignment trailer looks promising&comma; and I hope the expansion provides answers to the lingering questions in the story&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<&excl;-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v&period;

The Assignment and The Consequence DLC expansions will provide a much fuller backstory for the game&period; The story for these DLC will be concurrent with the events of the main game&period; Basically&comma;
