Dusk Golem
A 21st Century Rockefeller
A fan site of Evil Within noticed that concept art for Evil Within that wasn't supposed to be seen un-internally was open to the public, and as its the internet, it's now out there in the open.
Before I post this, I want to mention that I think The Evil Within isn't posting much media as they want a lot of the game to be a surprise. Call it cocky or ignorant, but as the game releases this year, they have sort of just shown the same two areas from the same demo over the last year almost exclusively. I think new media won't be released until closer to release, and that they want the game to spread through word of mouth. But anyways.
Here's the concept art:
(possible SPOILER warning, as these weren't made for the public)
These shots show something very different than the other shots shown of the game so far. Those have depicted a man in a mental asylum who can't seem to escape and strange, nightmarish creatures. These show something that looks far more akin to an apocalypse scenario, though of course maybe something broke out of the asylum, or maybe our character is crazy at the end of the world, or maybe the world really isn't over and he just thinks it is, or something like that.
Also notable that these concept arts are marked as being done on March 2013.
Now some observations that aren't mine, but from people on an Evil Within fan forum. These may contain spoilers, of course, but here are a few notable things:
Notice that in the concept art, the mark on the grave is the same as the mark on a wall in an in-game screenshot of the Boxman. Could it be a religious insignia?
In this screenshot, it looks like what tore the buildings wasn't an Earthquake, but some giant monster, as you can see giant claw and teeth marks on the buildings and such:
Also note worthy the town is called "Crimson City" by the notes.
