The first Outlast successfully translated the found footage horror genre to video game form, and Outlast 2 delivers a similar, yet arguably even scarier, experience. Outlast 2 changes the setting from a mental asylum to rural Arizona, where players are chased down by insane cult members. Its dark religious themes help to make Outlast 2 especially unnerving, and while the first half is a bit slow, the second half is a dizzying rollercoaster of shocking scenes and moments that will be drilled into the minds of anyone brave enough to play through

The much-anticipated sequel to the original hack-and-slash game , Bayonetta 2 saw the return of the titular character for another round of action-packed stiletto-pumping action as she journeyed to the Gates of Hell to save her friend Jeanne from eternal damnation after the pair were attacked by a group of angels, and a demon summoning goes terribly wr

The third title in the single-player RPG is perhaps the longest-developed game of all time, leaving fans waiting for over a decade. Mother 3 takes place on Nowhere Island, an undetermined amount of time after the events of the previous SLG game building guide, Mother 2 . Lucas, Claus, and their mother Hinawa are preparing to journey home before the evil Pigmask Army strikes, bombing Tazmil Village and eventually taking it o

The Doom series is one much celebrated by its fans, remaining as one of the most popular and successful FPS game series of all time. These games see players jumping into the heavy boots of the unnamed protagonist as he arms himself with an entire arsenal of weaponry to send demons straight back to hell. The game thrives on buckshot, bloody action and heavy, thumping OSTs designed to get adrenaline runn

Dead by Daylight has built a dedicated fan base thanks to a constant stream of creative new killers, including famous ones like Jigsaw from the Saw franchise , as well as some original creations from the developers. Dead by Daylight succeeds in creating some genuine tension as players attempt to outsmart the killer, but with the killer controlled by a human player instead of AI, that's a lot easier said than d

Noted for its tense atmosphere and disturbing imagery, Little Nightmares is a unique entry in the horror genre thanks to its focus on platforming.

The second game brought back the same protagonist, Gordon Freeman, who awakens 20 years after the events of the first title, having to save Earth from what Black Mesa unleashed. It was seen as a definite improvement on the first, but the development process that created it wasn't exactly painless. Valve spent half a decade creating prototypes and outlines before scrapping and cutting content, resulting in a more delayed game than fans expec

Though the game is played in third-person view for survivors, you’ll play in first-person as the killer. Côté explained that the shift here is about focus. As a survivor, you’re focused on keeping an eye out for the killer. When you’re fixing a generator, you can spin the camera around to make sure he’s not sneaking up on you. If he does, though, you’ll be able to see a red glow wash over the immediate area behind your character. Not only does a third-person camera divorce you from the action so you get the same sympathetic feeling you’d get watching the victims of a slasher flick, but the pulled-out view offers a tactical advantage you sorely need as a survivor. As the killer, you don’t need the advantage. The first-person perspective gives you tunnel vision as you hunt your targets, which doesn’t just make the action more personal; it effectively reduces your vision cone and makes it easier for the survivors to escape. This led to incredibly close calls during my round as a survivor when I managed to lose the pursuing killer for the briefest of moments, then dodge into a cabinet and watch him pass by. When I played as the killer though, that same situation in reverse made it crystal clear how important it is as a survivor to slow down and not leave a trail as I threw open the cabinet doors and wrenched the terrified survivor out.
