The horror genre has had a rough ride when it comes to video games -- with it seemingly
going into hiding in 2018.
However, it appears to be set for a grand return this year, with a whole load of new
and terrifying games for players to feast upon.
So today on Top 5 Scary Videos, we’re going to be counting down the Top 5 Scariest Games
Coming Out In 2019.
Lets jump in.
5 The Beast Inside A made for PC game, The Beast Inside follows
a cryptanalyst who discovers a clue from a murder that took place more than 100 years
ago, and now they find themselves hunted by what appears to be the very same killer.
As the player, you must piece together the murder from the Civil War era to end the current
threat.
You will control two characters, one set in the past and one in the present, within a
small open world where every item is interactive.
Solving puzzle and deciphering codes is a huge part of the game, but you will also have
a gun that can take down the threats that emerge.
As of now, The Beast Inside is currently listed as coming soon from developer Illusion Ray
Studio -- however, the demo is available to play on Steam as we speak.
4 Pathologic 2 Another made for PC game, Pathologic 2 is
a sequel to the game of the same name released back in 2005, that instantly became a cult-classic.
However, the game was buggy and ugly to look at, but it was ambitious, and followed a group
of characters trying to prevent a plague from decimating a small town.
Its village has NPCs who went about their own schedules, timed quests, and a bleak and
horrific atmosphere.
Pathologic 2 is set to be the remake of the original game, with many fans hoping that
Ice-Pick Lodge, the developers, will deliver on the bold innovations of the first game
with a very needed facelift to creepy us all out.
As it stands there is currently no release date for the game, however it is set to come
out this year -- with a standalone prequel available as a demo right now.
3 The Peterson Case Available for Playstation 4, Xbox One, and
PC, The Peterson Case follows the story of a family that has gone missing near Roswell,
New Mexico, and you play as the detective who has been called in to figure out what
exactly happened.
You begin by investigating their house, but it may spell out your end.
The house is crawling with unnatural things, including ghosts, living symbols, and perhaps
even aliens -- confirming that we are in fact not alone in the universe.
As the detective, you have a pretty good idea about what happened to the family, however,
you may not make it out of the house alive.
As it stands, The Peterson Case currently has no release date, but it is set to come
out later on this year.
Here’s hoping it won’t get pushed back.
2 The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan Available for Playstation 4, Xbox One, and
PC -- Man of Medan comes to us from Supermassive Games, the studio behind the choice driven
slasher, Until Dawn.
With the studio planning on releasing the games as an anthology.
Man of Medan is set in the South Pacific, as a group of four young Americans stumble
upon a WWII vessel and decide to investigate it.
Because that sounds like a great idea.
Of course, they don’t like what they find, and end up trapped on the vessel due to a
storm.
As the player, you will need to figure out how to escape before the boat’s occupants
cut the characters down, one by one.
You will have the chance to play as all the characters, much like Until Dawn, with the
ability to keep all the characters alive based on your choices, or see them killed off in
gruesome ways.
Man of Medan currently has no release date, but is set to come out this year.
1 APSULOV: End of Gods Before we even begin, this game looks absolutely
terrifying -- and I am so here for it.
Made for PC, Apsulov comes to us from Angry Demon Studios, and as the player you uncover
a device that aims to bring destruction to Midgard.
Described as a future viking horror game, Apsulove blends Nordic mythology with sci-fi
-- and you must prevent an ancient horror from destroying the world, and perhaps even
reawakening the Nordic God.
Honestly -- CHILLS.
Well, there we have it!
