The Evil Within was barely playable to a release of the patch

The Evil Within demonstrates not the best performance on all platforms, which came out, but it turns out to be working much worse before the patch that accompanied the release of the game.

Edition Digital Foundry conducted to compare two versions of The Evil Within: the digital version for PS4, which shipped directly from the patch 1.01, and a clean version of the disc. The results are striking, given that the game was developed on the engine id Tech 5, which manufacturability sacrificed stable performance with 60 fps.

In the video from Digital Foundry both versions are compared in parallel: see for yourself how much better the game began to work with a release patch.
