TOP 10 Xbox One Horror Games


10. Resident Evil 3


In Resident Evil 2, Mr X kept the creepy factor at 100. Resident Evil 3’s Nemesis is no slouch and will definitely make it hard for you to sleep easy after the first time you encounter this terrifying tyrant. Trailing your every move, this biohazardous behemoth utilises a rocket launcher, flame thrower and numerous grizzly forms to keep you on your toes as you high tail it out of Raccoon City. Alongside more flesh-eating zombies than ever before, this incredible remake hides terror behind every corner.


9. The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes


The third game in the Dark Pictures Anthology, this interactive cinematic horror experience builds on previous entries in the series by implementing a difficulty setting that allows players to adjust the speed of quick-time events, while the redesign of the Moral Compass feature offers the most polished Dark Pictures title yet. A compelling and chilling masterpiece in the horror genre of gaming.


8. The Evil Within 2


This solid sequel expands the scope of the series which ratchets up the tension considerably, resulting in an often-harrowing gaming experience.

This is a thrilling horror game and one that is definitely worth your time if you’re brave enough.


7. Back 4 Blood


Ever since Left 4 Dead took the multiplayer genre by storm, players have been clamouring for more. Back 4 Blood offers just that, with the original creators coming back with this spiritual successor that offers more cooperative zombie-slaying mayhem. After “the Devil Worm” parasite infects most of humanity turning them into the vicious “Ridden”, it’s up to you to lay waste to the hordes. Lock n’ load.


6. Outlast Trinity

4. Alien: Isolation


Alien: Isolation puts the player into an atmosphere of constant dread and mortal danger, as you must navigate a decommissioned trading station on the fringes of space while being stalked by a staggeringly intelligent and dynamic Alien who responds to your every move to hunt you down. Every step you take has consequences, making this an incredibly intense experience – and a truly horrifying one when you are caught.


3. Little Nightmares 2


Preceding the events of the first game, Little Nightmares II challenges players to discover the dark secrets of the Pale City while building upon its predecessor's haunting atmosphere, graphics, gameplay and sound. The result is an incredible and immersive game that pulls you into its twisted, nightmarish work like few other games can achieve. Sleep tight, gamers.
