Dying Light 2: Stay Human
Developer: Techland
Publisher: Techland
Release Date: February 4, 2022
Dying Light 2: Stay Human is a great example of getting you feeling spooky this Halloween. Setting in a world where the virus won and civilization fell back to the Dark Ages. The City, one of the last human settlements, is on the brink of collapse. Find yourself in the role of a wanderer with the power to change the fate of The City. Use your agility and hone your combat skills to defeat your enemies, unravel the dark secrets and reshape the world. Every night is a challenge and you will need both fists and wits to survive this dread-filled game.
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed
Developer: IllFonic
Publisher: IllFonic
Release Date: October 18, 2022
Hunting or Haunting – it’s up to you! Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed based on the Ghostbusters media franchise is a fun, 4v1 asymmetrical multiplayer horror game that ditches four Ghostbusters against troublesome Spirit haunting unique locations. Wield iconic ghost-hunting tools and go on a mission to track and ultimately catch this rogue supernatural entity. While it might not be fear-inducing, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed looks like some good multiplayer Halloween fun.
Scorn
Developer: Ebb Software
Publisher: Kepler Interactive
Release Date: October 14, 2022
Inspired by the works of H. R. Giger, Scorn seeps with the disturbing originality of a nightmarish universe which intends to leave players feeling uncomfortable at all times. The narrative centres on a character “being thrown into the world” with an unsettling environment, odd forms and grim tapestry. Isolated and lost inside looking for a way out and trying to find answers to the puzzles through Scorn’s environmental storytelling. This game will be a fascinating addition for anyone looking for a horrific adventure with a unique grotesque visual style.
It was our pleasure to work on this game together with skilled developers from Ebb Software. Give it a try and let us know your opinion.
The Quarry
Developer: Supermassive Games
Publisher: 2K Games
Release Date: June 10, 2022
Our next recommendation for this Halloween is The Quarry. Players assume control of nine teenage counsellors who must survive their last unpredictable night of horror at Hackett’s Quarry summer camp amongst evil supernatural creatures and violent locals. Be careful about your choices, because with life-or-death decisions around every turn, the choices you make can lead to catastrophic consequences and will determine how the story unfolds.
GhostWire: Tokyo
Developer: Tango Gameworks
Publisher: Bethesda Softworks
Release Date: March 25, 2022
Our last but not least game to play through this October is GhostWire: Tokyo. Set in Tokyo as the game’s title suggests, players explore a unique vision of Tokyo twisted by a supernatural presence. From its ultra-modern cityscape to its traditional temples and narrow alleyways, discover a hauntingly beautiful city swarming with Yokai – vengeful spirits. The city where the population seems to be vanishing and dwindling. Interact with supernatural entities in this open-world action experience as you find the truth of the city’s demise and try to save Tokyo.
