We’ll be honest, the horror genre took a few hits with some games not living up to their hype. Still getting the full release of Hello Neighbour, a prequel to Until Dawn and possibly the best representation of a classic series coming to life in video game format, there was still plenty to keep us up at night. Here are our choices for Best Horror of 2018.
THE NOMINEES ARE:
Call of Cthulhu
Hello Neighbour
The Inpatient
The Forest
Agony
THE WINNER IS:
Call of Cthulhu
The Call of Cthulhu series is more about psychological horror over jump scares and that is exactly what Cyanide Studios has done so well with the latest iteration of the series. With multiple endings, a character building system that affects how you’re playing the game, and a well told and paced story, Call of Cthulhu is easily the best horror game of 2018.
