It has been just under two weeks since the first Evil Within DLC, and Bethesda Softworks have already announced the next one to come out on April 21st – The Consequence.

Directed by Shinji Mikami, best known as the creator of Resident Evil, The Evil Within follows Sebastian Castellanos as he tries to survive an unreal apocalypse, and unravel the mysteries surrounding it.

The Assignment explores the story of one of the supporting characters, Juli Kidman, and the upcoming DLC, called The Consequence, is the continuation of this story.

Anyone who has played the original game knows that Kidman is a mysterious character which leaves lots of unanswered questions. The Assignment and The Consequence aim to answer these questions, and shine a clearer light on what her purpose is and who she is.

Bethesda have not said much in the way of what we will be seeing in this next instalment, other than that it will see Juli Kidman’s story through to the end.

“Since it’s only been a couple of weeks since The Assignment released, we don’t want to spoil too much of what’s happening next – there would assuredly be consequences for that.” says a spokesman for Bethesda.

The short teaser they released does not reveal much, either. Most of its 19-second runtime is taken up by the ESRB and the logo, with just 7 seconds of gameplay. In those 7 seconds, we see Juli Kidman walking on what look like suspended rails, with fog all around her. She appears to be walking toward a light, until, all of a sudden, the light rushes toward her, and we hear a woman’s scream. At the very end of the teaser, we hear Kidman saying “I’m not running this time.”

The Consequence will be available of April 21st, and it is free for everyone who got the game with the 19.99$ pass. It can also be purchased as a stand-alone item for 9.99$.
