Comparing Dark Descent to Isolation for Alien, it successfully follows a similar path in building a game that embraces the themes and ideas of the film Aliens.]]>

Everything was going smoothly during the investigation of the refinery until I reached the basement. The underground complex turned out to be a perfect hiding place for the terrifying xenomorphs from Aliens: Dark Descent. Since my squad of Colonial Marines entered, they have been relentlessly harassed by these nightmarish creatures designed by H.R. Giger. Now, they find themselves cornered in a narrow corridor, desperately trying to fend off the xenomorphs' relentless advance. One of the marines works on hacking a control panel to open an escape route, but time is running out, and the cramped space offers no means of evasion.

In the nick of time, Sergeant Kurtz steps up with his trusty shotgun and takes a shot at the approaching xenomorphs. Although it stuns the leader of the pack, the Praetorian, the situation remains dire. Finally, Tekker MacDonald successfully cracks the door code, allowing the squad to escape, but not without a last stand of intense firepower and a well-placed grenade that finally takes down the xenomorphs.

Despite surviving this harrowing encounter, my marines are in bad shape, low on supplies, and overcome with fear. Though we are close to completing the mission, I decide to retreat and return with fresh troops. The xenomorphs will likely be stronger, but it's a risk I'm willing to take.

Among the various attempts to replicate the tension and action of Aliens, Dark Descent stands out as the first game since AvP 2 to truly capture the essence of the film. Developer Tindalos Interactive has skillfully blended stealth, strategy, and intense gunfights to create a captivating real-time tactics game that does justice to James Cameron's masterpiece.

Less yapping, more shooting

Dark Descent begins with its weakest aspect, which is the setting on Lethe, a moon infested with xenomorphs and owned by the Weyland Yutani tech-startup. The Colonial Marine frigate U.S.S Otago has crash-landed there, and the game unfolds through an elaborate prologue that also serves as a tutorial, explaining the cause of the crash. While Tindalos Interactive manages to capture the cinematic essence and soundscape of the original films directed by Ridley Scott and James Cameron, the script falls short in terms of wit and subtlety. The dialogue feels forced and awkward, detracting from the overall experience.

However, once you find yourself stranded on Lethe, the game compensates for its narrative weaknesses with the stories you create. In the linear-ish campaign, you lead a four-person marine team on various missions across the moon to either improve your situation or investigate the infestation of bugs. One such mission takes you to a replica of Hadley's Hope named Dead Hills, a vast colony with multiple buildings spread across different floors, including a bar, an armoury, a clinic, a command centre, and intricate mining tunnels below.

Unlike most tactics games, Dark Descent lets you control the entire squad simultaneously, moving them with the right-mouse button and interacting with the environment using the left. Though unusual at first, this approach makes sense as it highlights the vulnerability of your marines when isolated. While exploring the mission area, your shoulder-lamp helps you interact with objects, and the motion-tracker in the bottom-right corner of the screen detects movement within a 60-meter radius. It becomes essential to avoid the highlighted skittering white dots on the tracker since encountering the xenomorphs is not only dangerous but progressively worse with each encounter.

Aliens Dark Descent 3
Aliens Dark Descent gameplay

Once a xenomorph detects your presence, the hive is alerted, and the creatures enter hunt mode, actively pursuing your location. Your squad automatically fires at the aliens to hold them off, but this alone rarely proves sufficient to halt their advance. To access a more elaborate skill menu, you can press the spacebar. From there, you can employ tactics like suppressive fire, which slows down encroaching aliens in a wide cone, or use grenades and shotgun blasts to eliminate specific threats. However, the use of these skills requires Command Points, and by default, you only have three in your pool. While they regenerate automatically, the process is slow.

Hence, the core of Dark Descent's tactical gameplay involves effectively deploying these abilities, understanding when to stand your ground and when to change tactics. Nevertheless, no matter how adeptly you fend off the xenomorphs, there will be lasting consequences from the encounters. Each attack you make increases the aggressiveness of the aliens, indicated by a creeping ticker in the top right of the screen. As this ticker escalates, more aliens will appear in the mission area, and eventually, a massive horde will come your way.

Additionally, these attacks also raise your squad's stress levels, leading them to shoot more erratically and consume more ammunition. To alleviate stress, they can use Naproleve pills or take a quick rest by welding the doors of a room shut. However, both of these options consume vital resources, adding to the strategic depth of the game.

Bug spray

All of these elements come together to create an exhilarating and suspenseful experience, akin to a thrilling rollercoaster ride. Even a single xenomorph entering a room can escalate into a prolonged and intense battle, leaving your marines terrified, injured, captured, or worse, dead. And all of this happens before you even consider completing your objectives, which are often complex and unforgiving, just like your encounters with the xenomorphs.

For instance, in Dead Hills, you must locate the command center and use it to find six missing colonists, escorting each one to your ARC from their hiding spots. The mission is vast, relentless, and exhausting, making it unlikely to finish in one sitting. A crucial aspect of Dark Descent is knowing when to abort a mission and retreat to the Otago to recover and send a fresh squad the next day.

Aliens Dark Descent 1
Aliens Dark Descent combat

Back at the Otago, Dark Descent takes on more of an XCOM-like strategy layer, where you manage your marines. You can treat their physical and mental wounds, promote them to unlock new skills, equip them with better weapons acquired from resources gathered during missions, and research new technologies using xenomorph samples. While not as deep as XCOM's strategy layer and more derivative than the actual missions, it serves a vital purpose. Every passing day increases the infestation level of Lethe, so giving your marines a break between missions poses a risk of the situation becoming more perilous when they return.

The combination of these ideas creates numerous emergent challenges, both on a small scale, such as deciding where to set up defenses during an impending alien onslaught, and on a larger scale, like revisiting previous missions to gather additional resources and retrieve abandoned sentry turrets. Some minor issues exist, like marines occasionally getting stuck on the environment, and repetitive dialogue from the squad. However, it is in the storytelling where the quality noticeably declines.

Comparing Dark Descent to Isolation for Alien, it successfully follows a similar path in building a game that embraces the themes and ideas of the film Aliens. While its execution isn't quite as flawless, it's still a highly enjoyable and authentic Aliens game, making it one of the best in the franchise.

<![CDATA[Resident Evil 4 Remake Charm Guide: How To Get And Use]]> https://gurugamer.com/pc-console/resident-evil-4-remake-charm-guide-21927 Tue, 18 Apr 2023 02:20:00 +0000 https://gurugamer.com/pc-console/resident-evil-4-remake-charm-guide-21927
The Resident Evil 4 Remake introduces a new game mechanic in the form of charms, which offer highly beneficial bonus effects to the player.]]>

The Resident Evil 4 Remake offers charms that are small objects that can be added to your storage case. These charms provide advantages and bonuses that are useful for surviving the challenges of the game. I obtained the Black Bass charm during my playthrough, which boosted the effectiveness of healing from consuming black bass by 100%. As a result, I was able to endure combat by consuming black bass as if I were a crazed fish enthusiast.

There is a wide range of charm effects available and you can attach up to three charms to your case. This allows you to customize the benefits to suit your specific play style or weapon preferences. In this article, I will provide instructions on how to unlock the shooting range, as well as tips for obtaining charms. Additionally, I will provide information on how to attempt to reroll charms, and a comprehensive list of all the charms we have discovered thus far, along with their effects.

In order to obtain charms you must first visit the shooting range managed by the merchant. This shooting range can be found in the merchant's primary store near the lake in chapter three. To access the store, you must first pass through the Quarry, after which you will arrive at the merchant's shop. Once there, take the elevator to the right of the merchant to descend into the shooting range.

RE4R Shooting Range

By successfully completing shooting challenges in the shooting range, you can earn tokens of varying value: bronze, silver, or gold. However, each challenge only allows for the use of certain weapons. To achieve the highest score, or to obtain an additional gold token by hitting every skull symbol, you must fulfill the extra condition to unlock the bonus round. Although there is only one shooting range in the village area, there are multiple ranges in the castle and on the island, and each one offers new challenges to complete. You can also replay old challenges at each range, so there is no need to worry about achieving perfect scores before leaving the village.

There are four crucial pointers to bear in mind while playing the shooting range in the Resident Evil 4 Remake:

  • You can obliterate all targets simultaneously by shooting the dynamite.
  • Headshots do not award additional points.
  • Rifles and the Punisher can shoot through targets.
  • It is permissible to switch weapons during certain challenges.

After obtaining tokens go to the prize vending machine located near the entrance and use the tokens to obtain a random charm. Inserting three gold tokens increases your likelihood of obtaining a rare charm, but you can also use a combination of token types. Once you have obtained your charms, you can attach up to three of them to your attache case at the typewriter, thereby receiving their respective benefits.

In chapter 11, you will encounter the merchant who allows you to buy gold tokens for three spinels each. However, since spinels are limited and precious, it is not recommended to purchase too many gold tokens. There are a total of 30 charms that you can obtain, categorized into three different levels of rarity: common, rare, and epic. Here is a list of all the charms that have been acquired thus far:

  • Dr. Salvador (common): +20% rifle ammo craft bonus frequency
  • Don Esteban (common): +15% shotgun shells craft bonus frequency
  • Don Jose (common): +15% handgun ammo craft bonus frequency
  • Soldier w/ Hammer (common): +20% handgun ammo craft bonus frequency
  • Soldier w/ Dynamite (common): +30% craftable mines attach bonus frequency
  • Zealot w/ Shield (common): +20% shotgun ammo craft bonus frequency
  • Zealot w/ Bowgun (common): +20% bolts craft bonus frequency
  • Zealot w/ Scythe (common): +20% submachine gun ammo craft bonus frequency
  • Leader Zealot (common): +10% health bonus recovery from green herbs
  • Black Bass (rare): +100% health recovery from black bass
  • Ada Wong (rare): 30% off body armor repairs
  • Leon w/Shotgun (rare): +40% ammo resale value
  • Leon w/ Rocket Launcher (rare): 20% off rocket launcher at merchant
  • Ashley Graham (epic): +50% health recovery for green herbs

It is important to keep in mind that saving the game cannot be used to change the charms that you have obtained. Even if you save the game and try to reroll by using three sets of three gold tokens, you will still get the same three charms you received previously. If you want to reroll charms, it is recommended to try different combinations of tokens as this can lead to slightly different outcomes. Although you can obtain charms that you already have, it is not possible to stack them to increase their effectiveness. Instead, you can sell them back to the merchant for a small amount of money.

Amongst the charms I have discovered so far, those that provide a 20% increase in crafting frequency are considered powerful as they enhance the probability of obtaining additional bullets when crafting that particular type of ammunition. Another strong charm is Ada Wong, which lowers the cost of repairing body armor. This is especially useful since you will need to repair your armor frequently at every Merchant you encounter throughout the game.

Black Bass

In my opinion, the most potent charm that I came across is the Black Bass. It amplifies the amount of health recovered from consuming fish by 100%. There are numerous locations in the game where you can acquire a significant amount of bass, such as the Lake in the village, the fountain near the Courtyard in the castle, or in the watery part of the Depths area. The larger bass takes up a lot of space in your inventory, but if you fill your case with smaller ones, you won't have to worry about using healing items at all. Moreover, the bass seems to regenerate, so you can revisit the castle fountain to obtain more in subsequent chapters.

<![CDATA[Top 10 Best Psychological Horror Games To Play In 2023]]> https://gurugamer.com/pc-console/top-10-best-psychological-horror-games-to-play-in-2023-21974 Fri, 31 Mar 2023 07:38:00 +0000 https://gurugamer.com/pc-console/top-10-best-psychological-horror-games-to-play-in-2023-21974
Creating successful psychological horror games is a challenging task, but some exceptional examples have emerged within the genre, offering unforgettable gameplay experiences to users.]]>

Psychological horror is a category of horror that centers mainly on disquieting and alarming portrayals of an individual's psychological condition. With advancements in gaming technology, developers can now produce more fear-inducing and absorbing experiences, resulting in a steady improvement in the quality of the psychological horror subgenre in recent decades.

In this article, Gurugamer is going to showcase the top 10 best Psychological horror games to play in 2023.

10. Silent Hill

The original Silent Hill game was created by Konami's Team Silent and initially launched on PlayStation 1 in 1999, followed by a release on Game Boy Advance in 2001.

1124
Silent Hill

Silent Hill distinguished itself from other horror games of its time by crafting a disturbing yet captivating environment, and by placing players in control of an ordinary person rather than a trained soldier or law enforcement officer, which was uncommon at the time. Although the game's visuals and some of its gameplay elements may not stand up well by modern standards, its storyline remains enthralling, and it deserves recognition as one of the best horror game releases for its impact on the genre alone.

9. Silent Hill 3

Silent Hill 3, developed by Konami's Team Silent, was launched on PlayStation 2 and PC in 2003, following the success of the original game.

Silent Hill 3

The protagonist in this game is a young girl named Heather, who wakes up alone in a shopping mall after experiencing a nightmare. Silent Hill 3 does not attempt to introduce any revolutionary gameplay elements and focuses primarily on exploration and puzzle-solving, similar to its predecessor. The game was widely acclaimed by both fans and critics, as evidenced by its 85 critic score and 8.6 user score on Metacritic.

8. Doki Doki Literature Club!

When creating a psychological horror video game, a significant challenge is that players already come with certain expectations of the genre, such as shocking visuals and deteriorating characters. This makes it difficult for developers to create a truly unsettling experience.

Maxresdefault 1
Doki Doki Literature Club!

Doki Doki Literature Club! attempted to overcome this challenge by concealing its psychological horror genre. Initially, the game was marketed as a visual novel with images that resembled a dating simulator, which is how the game appears to start. However, as the player makes choices throughout the game, it takes a disturbing turn that can affect both the main character and the player themselves in unexpected ways.

7. Outlast

Similar to other independent horror games in the last ten years, Outlast owes much of its popularity to streamers and influencers. These individuals often have a large audience, who tune in to see their terrified reactions to the game's most frightening scenes. Outlast relies on more than just jump scares to unsettle its players; it also denies them access to any weapons, leaving them with no option but to run and hide, leading to some extremely intense gameplay moments.

Outlast

While Outlast's sequel released in 2017 failed to achieve the same level of impact as its predecessor, it is still worth exploring for those who enjoyed the first game.

6. SOMA

Frictional Games, the developer behind the psychological horror game Amnesia: The Dark Descent, released Soma in 2015. As a result, fans of psychological horror had high expectations for the game, which can make it challenging for developers to create a genuinely unsettling experience. However, Frictional Games managed to subvert players' expectations by misleading them in a subtle way.

Soma Promo 2560x1440 E92be1297f6234f9171ae88de27b9
SOMA

At the beginning of the game, the protagonist suffers a severe brain injury and agrees to undergo experimental treatment, leading them to wake up in a strange and eerie place. Many seasoned psychological horror fans might have anticipated the protagonist awakening in a manifestation of their inner thoughts, as suggested by the "brain injury" plot point. This expectation was likely what the developers intended to lead players towards. However, Soma takes a different path, presenting a story that explores the potential consequences of technological advancements on the human brain, similar to an episode of Black Mirror.

5. Observer

Observer, developed by Bloober Team, hit the market in 2017, joining the studio's portfolio of horror games like The Medium, Layers of Fear, and Blair Witch. However, some players were put off by the game's gameplay, leading to criticisms. Nonetheless, the game's world design, atmosphere, and story are still among the best in the psychological horror genre, and therefore, a must-have for anyone looking for such an experience.

Observer Fa
Observer

An updated version of the game, titled Observer: System Redux, was released in November 2020, featuring better visuals, additional story content, and overall improvements, making it the ultimate version of Observer to play.

4. Alan Wake

The game Alan Wake was first launched exclusively for Xbox 360 in 2010 and later became available on PC almost two years after. In October 2021, a remastered version of the game with both downloadable content packs was released on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, PS4, and PS5.

Alan5
Alan Wake

The game's storyline draws inspiration from Stephen King's work, as evident from the reference to the author in the opening. The game features numerous supernatural enemies and events, which accompany the protagonist's fear of losing his sanity as a writer.

3. Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice

Ninja Theory developed Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, a unique psychological horror game that deviates from the norm by not being set in modern times with a protagonist that's easy to relate to. Instead, it takes place in a dark fantasy world that draws inspiration from Celtic and Norse mythology.

Senua In Hellblade Senuas Sacrifice
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice

Although it has a fantasy setting, the game's story tackles the very real mental illness of psychosis. Hellblade's depiction of psychosis, which was created with input from neuroscientists, has been a significant factor in the game's critical acclaim, earning an impressive 88 Metascore on Xbox One.

2. Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Frictional Games released Amnesia: The Dark Descent in September 2010, which became one of the most influential games not just in psychological horror but also in the broader horror genre. Similar to Outlast, the game owes much of its success to YouTubers, who played the game and their horrified reactions entertained their audience, with PewDiePie being one of the most notable.

Amnesia The Dark Descent
Amnesia The Dark Descent

What made Amnesia: The Dark Descent particularly influential was its decision not to provide players with any weapons, which was unconventional for horror games of the time. Most horror games were becoming action-oriented with zombies replacing soldiers, aliens, and other enemies.

1. Silent Hill 2

As mentioned earlier, psychological horror games are improving as technological advancements allow for more detailed, immersive, and frightening horror experiences. Despite being over 20 years old, Silent Hill 2 still provides one of the greatest horror experiences in gaming, which serves as a reminder of its uniqueness. This is primarily due to the game's excellent storytelling, as the search for answers about Mary's fate remains intriguing, and James' psyche is still one of gaming's most exceptional visual storytelling accomplishments.

Multiplayer horror can actually be pretty scary.

1. Dead by Daylight Mobile

Dead by Daylight is a 4 vs 1 multiplayer horror game in which one killer hunts down 4 survivors who are trying to escape. This is a deadly game of hide and seek that was inspired by cult classic slasher movies like Friday the 13th and Halloween.

To escape from the deadly clutches of the killer, players need to equip themselves with essential tips to survive, explore the map and complete various tasks needed to escape. From restarting generators to open doors to find a skeleton key to hide down a hatch, you can either survive with your friends or use them as bait to escape. Dead by Daylight Mobile's music is the best part of the game, lifted right out of a horror movie.

2. Horror Hunt

This is yet another asymmetrical multiplayer horror game in which 4 players team up to kill the big bad monster. Unlike Dead by Daylight, Horror Hunt is much more action packed, as players have the ability to fight back.

However, they can't just fight the monster right out of the gate. Players need to destroy the totems that give strength and power to the monster first... and before that, the monster is invincible. This is the horror aspect of the game, as you have to constantly avoid the monster while doing your job. Every hunter or monster has special abilities and its own playstyle. This makes Horror Hunt unique and one of the best horror multiplayer games for Android.

In this game, you and your friend will find yourself waking up in an unknown place, with a monster stalking around the place. Your task is to solve puzzles and search, collect and use items in order to escape.

4. Imposter Hide

Among Us certainly did not trademark their gameplay concept, and because of that, people copied its core gameplay and apply that to a 3D world. Overall, Imposter Hide is pretty much Among Us, but 3D.

In this horror interactive game, you are a shipmate in a spaceship, with a mission to finishing all the tasks without getting caught by the impostor. To escape, try to hide under tables and corners and don't make any noise. You can play with friends as impostors or shipmates or play against an impostor bot.

Overall, you can consider Horrorfield to be a Dead by Daylight clone, with the same 4vs1 gameplay. However, the twist here is that it is a top-down 2D game. Play as one of the 7 different survivors, each with their unique ability. Similar to Dead by Daylight, you need to hide, help each other while completing various tasks to unlock an escape route from the abandoned asylum.

Unlike Dead By Daylight, the main map of Horrorfield is an abandoned asylum full of terrifying traps and secret hiding places. Use that to evade the killers roaming around. There are also 4 killers with unique abilities.

6. Granny's House: Pursuit and Survival

There are 3 modes in this game: Escape, Infection and Story. The first one is the usual 2 vs 6 gameplay, with the 6 kids band together to gather the hidden parts and escape. In Infection mode, all the kids are on their own, and if you catch a kid as a pursuer, your roles would be switched. In story mode, you and your friends would team up and play PVE against AI enemies.

Also, as revealed on SteamDB, the game has reached a peak of 87,146 players in the last 12 days.

Phasmophobia, The Ghost Game to Play This Halloween

Currently available on PC and still on Steam's Early Access phase, Kinetic Games' Phasmophobia is based on the following premise: up to 4 players can form a team of paranormal investigators who will be in charge of detecting spirits and demonic entities, and collect evidence that proves the existence of these beings.

To do this, we will have at our disposal all kinds of instruments and tools that will help us to capture their presence in different locations. The theme, as we said, could not be more appropriate better in the month of Halloween as players look for ghost games to play at home, and that has been reflected in sales and audience ratings.

Phasmophobia is currently the best-selling game on Steam, ahead of the aforementioned Among Us or the ambitious role-playing game Baldur's Gate 3.

What is Phasmophobia About? Why is It The Best Among Ghost Games to Play at Night?

The task: find evidence of paranormal activity. The problem: ghosts. These are the basic elements upon which Kinetic Games created Phasmophobia, the computer game that is already the best-selling game on Steam. The psychological horror returns to the fray with an online cooperative mode, with up to 4 players, who will simultaneously progress and level up as they play.

How Popular Is Phasmophobia, The Ghost Game To Play This Halloween?

The name Phasmophobia owes its name to the condition that causes "an abnormal and unwarranted fear of ghosts." These spirits are the antagonists of this ghost-finding adventure, as they will seek to hunt down the investigators while they monitor the different, supposedly "enchanted", rooms.

Using a first-person interface, fear and scares are the main staples in Phasmophobia. The strong point of the game is undoubtedly teamwork, so communication will be key not only to complete the different tasks but also to get closer to the optimal "immersive experience" that the developer Kinetic Games promised, in addition to "realistic graphics and sounds" as described on Steam.

How Popular Is Phasmophobia, The Ghost Game To Play This Halloween?

The game's environment ranges from the safety of the truck in which the players start their adventure, to the usual gloom and doom within the homes that must be investigated. Within the player's reach, there are different tools such as flashlights, thermometers, or motion sensors. But time is also a factor to take into account, as the ghosts will become more aggressive as time passes.

Phasmophobia went on sale on September 18 and it did not take long to catch on with users, especially as well-known streamers began to spread the news of the game around. The ghost game to play is still in development and can be downloaded in Early Access on Steam.

<![CDATA[Horror Multiplayer Game Dead By Daylight Mobile Will Haunt You And Your Friend Next Month!]]> https://gurugamer.com/mobile-games/dead-by-daylight-mobile-launch-april-16-9476 Wed, 25 Mar 2020 07:47:00 +0000 https://gurugamer.com/mobile-games/dead-by-daylight-mobile-launch-april-16-9476
The game is very famous on PC, and you can enjoy the get-away from the horrifying killer on your mobile very soon!]]>

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has enacted the 21-day lockdown for the whole country yesterday and has threatened that you every one trying to sneak out of their house will be severely punished. This also means that the only way for you to have fun with your friends now is through gaming, and Dead By Daylight Mobile is going to be a great choice!

The PC version Dead By Daylight is reviewed by the users as 'very positive', and the developer Behaviour Digital is aiming to bring exactly the same frightening experience on your mobile devices. If you haven't heard about the game yet, below is the release date trailer of Dead By Daylight Mobile for you to catch the vibes:

The concept of Dead By Daylight Mobile

Dead By Daylight Mobile is a multiplayer horror game, where five players will get into a haunting ground. One of them will turn into an absolutely terrifying killer, and the four remaining ones will have to find a way out of this place while staying as far as possible from the killer. Or else, you'll be chopped and tortured before getting hanged onto a hook, waiting to be eaten.

Dead By Daylight Mobile Launch April 16 6
The jobs of the Survivors are getting away from the Killers, and open a path out of the Killing Ground

But that's much easier to talk than to do, since the Survivors could not just hide or run away from the savage Killer, expecting him to fall behind. In fact, Dead By Daylight Mobile will require the Survivors to complete a certain task, asking players to get out of the shelters to collect some items and fix a machine to open the light to the escaping path.

Meanwhile, the job of the Killer is much simpler: hunt down the Survivors one by one, and hanging onto a hook for a mysterious creature to consume them. You'll also have to keep an eye on the objectives that the Survivors are trying to complete, and obstruct it as much as you can.

Dead By Daylight Mobile Launch April 16 3
Seems illogical, but you're not dead just with being hanged, and your friend can still come to save you

Furthermore, since the Killer has to deal with 4 survivors at a time, they're blessed with their unique special ability that takes inspiration from many horror series. They include Stranger Things' Demogorgon, Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm Street, and even a pig from Saw. Alongside with their special powers, their haunting visuals is also the thing that makes the survivors frightened.

Dead By Daylight Mobile Launch April 16 7
Including the scariest characters from horror movies/series

On top of everything, Dead By Daylight Mobile focus on personal achievements, which means you could just ignore your friends or use them as distractions to fulfill the missions and get out all on your own. While separation is not always the most desirable thing, it's still worth considering in the case where, you know, your team is nearly useless. In exchange, it's easier for the Killer to chase down the Survivors that separate themselves from the pack, so make your mind before you sacrifice your friends.

Dead By Daylight Mobile Launch April 16 5
You can unlock more characters and maps through grinding

Launch in April, pre-registration now for skins and other rewards

Overall, Dead By Daylight Mobile is the perfect multiplayer game to enjoy with your friends while staying at home for the next 21 days. It will launch for both Android and iOS on April 16, but you can already register to get exclusive rewards once the game launch.

Dead By Daylight Mobile Launch April 16 1
The rewards are very juicy if the game reaches 10 lakhs pre-registration

Here are some of the best titles that would be part of this year's releases.]]>

2019 was a great year for the genre, with various amazing titles like Blair Witch, A Plague Tale and Resident Evil 2 Remake going around, claiming awards left and right. However, 2020 would be even bigger and better for the fans of the genre, with quite a few major titles set to be launched this year.

In this article, we would list out some of the most anticipated horror titles that would be released in 2020.

10 – The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners (Jan 23)

Walking Dead Saints And Sinners Zombie

The horror genre could be improved greatly by the added immersion from VR headsets. The best example of this trend is probably the Five Nights at Freddy’s series. However, games that could support VR of a specific genre are few and far between, as a VR system is rather expensive. The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners will be available for high-end PC incorporated VR headsets, with a release date on other VR systems later in the year.

From what we have gathered, this game would be a zombie FPS, in which players have to mow down waves upon waves of zombies to survive. You would be able to run the game on Oculus Rift and HTC Vive.

9 – Resident Evil 3 Remake (Apr 3)

Resident Evil 3 Remake File Size

Capcom finally confirmed the existence of Resident Evil 3 Remake after months of speculations and rumors. The game is going to be made in the same engine as the previously released RE 2, aimed to be a faithful recreation of the original mixed with major gameplay improvements.

Besides the main single-player campaign, Resident Evil 3 Remake would also come with a multiplayer component called Project Resistance. It would be a coop experience similar to titles like Dead by Daylight or Friday the 13th.

The game is going to be launched for PC, Xbox One and PS4.

8 – The Last of Us Part 2 (May 29)

Most Anticipated Games 2020 The Last Of Us Part 2

The original Last of Us was one of the flagship titles of the PS3, hailed as one of the best video games made in the last ten years. Naughty Dog is looking forward to continuing the streak, as they aim to create more of the previous survival horror cinematic experience in the first game. The Last of Us 2 would have great improvements and various mechanics over the original, especially in the visuals and gameplay aspects.

The game would launch exclusively for the PS4.

7 – Dying Light 2 (Spring 2020)

Dying Light 2 Art

After exhausting the Dead Island IP, Techland is currently working on Dying Light, its newest product. The original Dying Light is an open-world survival with zombies from Dead Island, along with an advanced exploration and parkour system. Dying Light 2 would be more or less the same, with improved gameplay, graphics, and new skills. Being a cross-gen title, another version compatible with the PS5 and Xbox Series X would also be released at a later date.

The game would be released for PS4, Xbox One and PC in Spring 2020.

6 – System Shock (Q1 2020)

System Shock Remake Screenshot

The original System Shock is one of the most revolutionary horror titles of its time, laying the groundwork for later masterpieces like System Shock 2 and Bioshock. Nightdive Studios, after acquiring the rights for the series, is aiming to bring the 1995 game up to modern standards, with improved visuals, sounds, and graphics. Based on the demo that was just released in The Game Awards event, the game is more or less ready.

System Shock is going to be available for PC, Xbox One and PS4 in Q1 2020.

5 – Remothered: Broken Porcelain (Q3 2020)

Remothered Broken Porcelain Trailer

The previous title, Remothered: Tormented Fathers was amongst the best horror titles of 2018, critically acclaimed for its creepy atmospheres and effective scares. Broken Porcelain would continue on the same timeline as the previous title. In this game, players would explore the Ashmann Inn, which was filled to the brim with both supernatural and human threats. This game might not have big budgets like others on this list, however, looks like it would be amongst the scariest games of 2020.

Remothered: Broken Porcelain would launch on all systems including the Switch.

4 - Carrion (TBA 2020)

Carrion Gameplay

In most horror games, you would play as a normal guy who has to face up against some of the most horrifying monsters. In this game, players would instead take on the role of the evil monsters whose job is to stalk and kill its victims. Carrion is a "reverse" horror game - this is definitely not a new concept, but it is unique enough to be a hit if they managed to do this in a correct way. The whole world is built Metroidvania style, which is rarely used for large games. Exploring something like that would be really interesting.

Carrion would be released in 2020 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC

3 - Little Nightmares 2 (TBA 2020)

Little Nightmares 2 Trailer Gamescom Six Mono Teac

The first Little Nightmares game was pretty peculiar, as it is a striking horror platformer, with amazing uses of creepy atmosphere and dark imagery. In the follow-up title, Little Nightmares 2, Tarsier Studio would address all the issues that fans have over the first game, along with new additions of mechanics and storylines. Six would get a new companion named Mono in the sequel, who would play a crucial part in the new puzzle mechanics.

The game would launch in 2020 for PS4, Xbox One, PC and Switch.

2 - Rainbow Six Quarantine (TBA 2020)

Rainbow Six Quarantine Art

Ubisoft has managed to revitalize one of its biggest franchise, Rainbow Six, with Siege, which has definitely become one of the biggest competitive FPS available today. While continuing to update Siege with seasonal contents, Ubisoft has been trying to take the series in a new direction - and that is how Rainbow Six Quarantine was made. The game combines the traditional Rainbow Six gameplay with elements of the horror genre, with tactical coop PVE against the horrors.

Quarantine would launch in 2020, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

1 - The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope (TBA 2020)

The Dark Pictures Little Hope Doll

Supermassive Games have become one of the tier 1 horror game makers, after the success of Until Dawn and a couple of VR titles. While a sequel to Until Dawn might sound better, a spinoff is just as good. The next game from Supermassive is a horror anthology, which would retain the main aspects of Until Dawn's gameplay mechanics, along with some twists due to its coop nature. Will Poulter would be Little Hope's main character, in order to appeal to fans of the previous games.

Little hope would launch for Xbox One, PS4, and PC.

Here are some of the best games in the Cosmic Horror genre that was released in 2019.]]>

It is actually rather strange that this particular brand of fiction could have thrived that much when its’ progenitor was starved to death, unable to pay for even basic expenses. H.P. Lovecraft’s influence has been growing stronger and stronger to this day – numerous writers of various genres have been inspired by his works – from movies, books, music, anime, and lastly, video games. Amongst all of them, the video games genre seems to be influenced the most, as there are just so many titles inspired or otherwise referenced Lovecraft’s works. There have been more and more of them getting made – with October 2019 being the largest month. Nine “Lovecraftian” titles were released on that month alone.

Unknown tentacles of horrors outside of human imagination

Why is this “cosmic horror” genre so popular? Why are people so obsessed with these tales of people stranded at the mercy of unknown terror? After more than a century of research, science has more or less figure out the answer.

The genre is a product of his time, with the main theme being “the insignificance of a single human being amongst the vast universal scale. The reason that the genre is getting popular is that it mirrored real life nowadays: The rising inequality and the growing of massive corporate entities that can shape our thought along with all aspects of our life while operating outside of our control or understanding. This sounds pretty much the same as the premise of a cosmic horror story: a character helpless before the might of unfathomable entities.

The artistic world design that should be able to blow you away

In the following section, we will list out some of the most notable Lovecraft themed titles and their approach to the theme.

A Place For The Unwilling

Solving the mystery by talking to various characters to get clues

ALPixel’s A Place For The Unwilling is one of the biggest titles with Lovecraftian influences this year. In this game, the protagonist would be recruited to manage the estate that his childhood friend left after suicide. While investigating the unlikely suicide, the protagonist would have to deal with the local inhabitants and their various conflicts.\

The hand-drawn environment is definitely one of a kind - it looks like a creepy children's book

Every decision you make would affect the world and the fate of the city – from the day you arrive until the end of the game, there are only 21 days. There would be no puzzles or gameplay, just story, and choices. With over 100 events scattered throughout the city, every new playthrough would be a brand new experience.

Overall, this game is an amazing narrative experience that set in a Dickensian world, with a dash of Lovecraft and Majora’s Mask.

Stygian: Reign Of The Old Ones

Fight against the cultist with your party - the combat is pretty challenging

While the first game is just inspired, Stygian is an outright adaptation of Lovecraft’s works. In this game, players would travel from the ruined Arkham into the abyss. Explore the mysterious new world and brave untold danger to find a way to get out of this madness.

Discover strange locations and quests

You would be forced to the limit of your ability, as the combat is really challenging and not without consequences. The main meat of the game is the quests, environments, and storylines inspired and adapted from the original stories. You would be able to influence them with your choices and role-playing style.

The gameplay is turn-based 2D combat, similar to Darkest Dungeon or Heroes of Might and Magic.

Sea Salt

Guide your horde of monster to attack the town and nearby locations

Sea Salt is actually the opposite of previously mentioned games – in this game, you would role-play as one of the Old God whose job is to summon various strange horror to corrupt and destroy the lands of humans.

Screenshot Sea Salt 1920x1080 2019 01 18 6
All boss fights in this game are pretty unique and challenging

The story begins with the humans of a fishing colony decide to rebel against you, their patron god, by cheating on their yearly sacrifice. Summoning a horde of deathly monsters, you would have to control and direct them to smash through the defenses and overcome everyone else that stands in your way. As you progress through the game, more units, and upgrades would be unlocked, enable further strategic customization.

Gibbous—A Cthulhu Adventure

The main character of the game is a Detective of the supernatural

This one is actually rather different from the other titles – it is a comedy cosmic horror that was made in actual Transylvania. You would be put into the shoes of the protagonist, detective Don R. Ketype, who have to go on an adventure to stop an evil book, the Necronomicon, with the help of his librarian friend and a talking cat.
