Shinji Mikami's second entry is messier and stranger than most of the games around it on this list, and that is part of what makes it interesting. The semi-open environments give you room to approach situations with stealth or noise or running, and the creature design is genuinely grotesque in ways that stay with you. Some of the mid-game pacing sags, and it never quite decides whether it wants to be a tight horror experience or an action game with horror aesthetics, but when it commits to the former the tension is real. I would rank it lower than the top tier because of those structural inconsistencies, but as a PS4 game still sitting in the PS Plus catalogue it represents good value for a survival horror evening.
