Far too often in the games industry does the European market get shafted in terms of release dates. However in the case of The Evil Within, quite the opposite is happening. Originally slated for October 18th, Bethesda has moved the European release date of The Evil Within up to October 14!
For other territories such as Australia, New Zealand, and Japan the release dates have not changed. The date move to match the North American release of the game is unfortunately only for Europe.
