But Creative Assembly isn't following that herd in particular. Rather, it's doing an Alan Wake 2 and promising to deliver a brand new terrifying adventure, building on its legacy rather than reconstructing it piece by piece. In a world where new horror IPs are hard to come by in the world of video games, I'll take it.

I’ve written previously that Alien: Isolation is the best horror game I’ve ever played. If the sequel leverages what made the original so great - namely, that you can’t predict how any given level is going to play out - picking it up is going to be a no-brainer.

The Road Ahead, an upcoming horror game from Saber and Stormind Games, includes a neat and creepy feature. If you have a microphone activated, the monsters in the game can hear you cough and scream in real life just like in the movies.

The upcoming survival horror game A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead will feature microphone detection that allows creatures to hear your real-life voice.
