With the publication of the last update, The Evil Within 2 adds support for mid-gen consoles of PlayStation Pro 4 and Xbox One X. The patch 1.02 version of Bethesda’s horror adventure is already available for download.


Owners of PlayStation 4 Pro, and shortly of Xbox One X, can now choose whether to play at the highest resolution or unlocked framerate. If you’re hoping for HDR support, you’ll have to be patient for a while, which has not been integrated with this update yet.
