Horror games are a more interactive version of our beloved horror films, offering more immersion for more intense scares. The Playstation5 has a lot of thrills to offer the most daring players. So, if you’re looking to scare yourself, allow us to show you a selection of the scariest horror games available on the PS5.

The QuarryResident Evil VillageDead by DaylightFatal Frame: Maiden of Black WaterAlien IsolationConclusion

The Quarry

The Quarry is one of the best-looking games of this selection. It uses the Unreal Engine 5 to give us gorgeous environments and detailed facial animations. This makes for an immersive narrative horror games where each of your decisions matter. Developed by Supermassive Games, already behind the enjoyable Until Dawn,

The Quarry focuses on the story of nine teenagers surviving in a summer camp with 80s slasher throwbacks. You can control each of these characters, and the game has a branching system that will determine the death or survival of your characters. The gameplay mostly consists of dialogues and quick time events (QTE) in this 2022 horror game.

Resident Evil Village

As the one of the pioneers of the survival horror genre, Resident Evil is a staple of horror as we know it in video games. After going for more action-oriented games, Capcom decided to reinvent the formula with a first person experience for Resident Evil VII. Village is the direct sequel to this first successful soft reboot of the franchise.

In this 2021 game, you play as Ethan, the protagonist of the previous game. He’s looking for his kidnapped daughter in an Eastern European village filled with mutated creatures, monsters, and governed by a mysterious tall woman, named Lady Dimitrescu. It’s an intense horror adventure filled with references to classic horror movies like Dracula.

Dead by Daylight

Despite being released in 2016, Dead by Daylight is still one of the best multiplayer experience to date for horror fans. The game is constantly updated with DLC based on famous horror franchises. Developed by Behaviour Interactive, the game opposes four survivors against a killer, all controlled by players. The killer must find the survivor and kill them to prevent them from escaping. This creates an intense gameplay for survivors who must try strategies to solve puzzles without getting caught or rescue their teammates to improve their chances.

Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water

Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water was originally released in 2014, but has been remastered recently for the Playstation5. This japanese horror game, developed by Koei Tecmo, is the fifth installment of a long-running horror series. Fatal Frame uses Japanese folklore to tell ghost stories that will remind you of movies like The Ring, and your weapon of choice is a camera.

You’ll need to take pictures of the spirits to defeat them, but you’ll also have to spare your battery to survive. In fatal frame, you can’t always fight, and your character isn’t very strong, so fleeing is often your only option.

Alien Isolation

Alien Isolation blew everybody away when it first released in 2014 with its incredible graphics. It recreates the ambiance of the Ridley Scott film. Creative Assembly, the developers, put a lot of effort to stay as close as possible to the source material from the design of the Xenomorph to the ship you’re exploring.

You play as Ellen Ripley’s daughter looking for her mother after the events of the first film, and you’re being chased by the infamous Xenomorph, which can use the ventilation systems to surprise you. Hiding and being discreet are your best weapons, since the creature is unkillable, and you have limited resources to fight back. This makes for one of the most tense games of hide and seek ever committed to Playstation.

Conclusion

With the horror games we’ve just mentioned, you’ve probably noticed a pattern. Outside scaring the living hell out of you, these games are almost always influenced by popular horror films, even when they’re not set in the same universe. The influence also goes beyond regular video games, as there are even casino slot games which are based on famous horror franchises. For instance, there are numerous zombie themed slots which most likely take inspiration from classic apocalypse horror movies. It is clear that horror will always remain a fan-favorite theme, and will continue impacting the gaming industry as a whole.
