Speaking of horror games, 2019 has been one of the strongest years for the genre in recent times. This year 2019 includes many high-quality indie horror titles, as well as several AAA products.

The best horror games of 2019 range from virtual reality to traditional survival horror games. Each name on this list is sure to please you.

A PLAGUE TALE: INNOCENCE

Before A Plague Tale: Innocence, Asobo Studio mainly developed copyrighted games based on Pixar movies. A Plague Tale shows that Asobo has a lot of ideas of his own, especially horror fans. A Plague Tale is a stealthy horror game where the player must avoid soldiers and swarms of infected rats. The player assumes the role of Amicia de Rune during the game, but you’ll also take control of your younger brother Hugo later on, who has a mysterious ability that allows him to control the mouse. A Plague Tale: Innocence was praised for its storytelling and was nominated for Best Narrative at The Game Awards 2019.

BLAIR WITCH ONLY

One of the biggest surprises at E3 2019 during Microsoft’s press conference was the appearance of Blair Witch. This is a game based on the horror movie series of the same name. Developed by the famous horror studio Bloober Team, Blair Witch lets you explore the scary forests in the movie, to find the lost boy with the help of his loyal dog Bullet. Bullet’s presence relieves the tension a bit, but the dog cannot protect the player from the scares, bizarre creatures, or the shivers that plague the game. The game captures the pace of Blair Witch movies perfectly. Despite some complaints about the decisions being made into the game, Blair Witch is still one of the scariest games of the year.

DEVOTION

Taiwanese studio Red Candle Games launched the first-person horror game Devotion on PC earlier this year. The game quickly appreciated and compared to games like Hideo Kojima’s PT. But like PT, Devotion has been removed from online stores, making it quite difficult to play the game mainstream. Even so, Devotion may also return after tweaking some content, but when it will return is still unclear. This is definitely one of the best horror games to come out in 2019, with a unique setting and content that sets it apart from other horror games this year.
