The game landscape is blessed with quality offers, while the horror category also has a wide range for players from which they can choose. Resident Evil Almost every aspect of this genre improved, the original games were a mixture of horror and action. Resident Evil 4, 5, and 6 turned primarily to an event of an occasional scary moment while Resident Evil 7: Biohazard He returned to horror, but moved to the first person's perspective. Village The aim of finding middle land between them, largely to succeed in this process; Meanwhile, Capcom revised several classics through a generally fantastic remake.
Resident Evil It is undoubtedly the most famous franchise of horror games of all time, to the point that fans of the Capcom series, who have largely neglected most of the genre offers. As a result they lack some of best Horror games as Resident Evil.
Updated October 13, 2025 Mark Sammut: Resident Evil Requiem is still about three months away, so you have to look elsewhere if you want to get your excitement. So we added two more horror games similar to Resident Evil, which could be able to fill this void. Both are a bit rough (Maid of Scheyra and Daymare: 1998), but they have their positives.
The last of us series
Post-apocalyptic horror Master work with strong writing
One of the most decorated features of video games of all time, naughty dog The last of us Imagines a world that could be realistic Resident EvilThe worst result if the viruses were spread uncontrolled. In addition to somewhat similar monsters, the release of 2013 is a shooter of a third person that is somewhat similar Resident Evil 4although with a harder focus on secrecy; However, gameplay, Resi Fans should not consider it too difficult to adapt to The last of usRhythm, and this also applies to continuing.
Naughty Dog focused more on the characters of games and took them on personal stories that lean into an increased and psychological horror terror rather than B-film entertainment. One type of story is not necessarily better than the other, but causes very different tones.
Ride out
An influential and very scary horror game
Although it is not particularly similar to the classic Resident Evil, Ride out Perhaps CapCom's attempts have been affected by the seventh record on the soft restart of the franchise, which meant a shift to the first person's perspective. Resident Evil 7The Baker Family Section section shares a lot in common with Red Barrels' games, including turning around the protagonist, which is largely defenseless against roaming enemies. Capcom found a way to shake a pattern and create an experience that is 100% Resident EvilBut fans of the first scary adventure Ethan Winters will want to see 2013 Ride out And its sequel, provided they enjoy their first record.
18 characters of surviving that cooled us on bones
Good horror games are created by characters that are absolutely scary, and the Outlast many managed to give us the characters that fled and hide.
On Mount Massive asylum, Ride out This revolves around a journalist who wants to find out exactly what happened in this hospital before it was closed. Players who are imprisoned inside only with a camera will constantly find themselves in the dark to try to avoid the various horrors that exist in this hell. While some rhythms can be omitted during playback, Ride out It tells a fascinating story that is rich in a (horrible) tradition.
MAID OF SKER
Resident Evil 1 Vibration
Now let's go to a game that is slightly less known than those they like Ride out or The last of us. MAID OF SKER is on most of the main systems and is a solid and short horror game from the first person that seems to be some obvious inspiration from the first Resident Evil games. The story takes place on the hotel area and you are constantly going through a scary place and solving puzzles and most of the time you try to avoid enemy meetings. The fight is very limited and not something to rely on, even though it is a possibility in desperate situations.
Like the original Resident Evil, MAID OF SKER He's doing a great job when he immers you in a nightmare, but a familiar world, forcing you to face a scary forehead using occasional weapons, but mostly your mind. Although I recommend maintaining expectations slightly low, horror fans should look for.
Crow Country
Fresh Return PS1
Although he does not hide his influences, Crow Country It makes a great job to expand and develop them to create something modern and unique. Due to its stylistic backgrounds and designs similar to the SFB game, the “horror of PS1 survival from 1998” and recognition for classics, such as the original Resident Evil The trilogy is likely to be something the main motivator to pick up this edition of India 2024. However, Crow Country It is offset in several key ways.
Most importantly, despite what its visual elements could indicate, the game wisely decided to copy the controls of tanks, instead delivered a relatively modern interpretation with several retrospective rocking. The campaign focuses primarily on puzzles, and the struggle deals with the rear seat and is largely avoided if players just want to sprint around the enemies. The setting of the amusement park is a scary treatment that supports the survey through its three main regions.
Alien: insulation
Intense sci-fi horror game
Candidate best Foreign the game of all time, Alien: insulation is a horror work of survival. Although it is not completely weapons, players spend big pieces of play and try to avoid xenomorf.
Alien: insulation He takes one of the most famous horror villains and revives them, re -sets this intimidating creation as the power to be taken into account. This is xenomorf of ForeignNo Alien vs. Predator. Although not everything comparable to a third person Resident Evil games, Alien: insulation should hit a chord with fans Biohazard and to a lesser extent Village.
Shadows damn
More comedy, less horror
Produced the production of Shinji Miki and Grasshopper, Shadows damn He went through a hard development cycle that has practically turned into another game to the end. The finished product plays as a comedy version focused on the action Resident Evil Titles, because players lead the hunter through the underworld to save their girlfriend.
Postponing some mini-games that do not bring Shadows damn He plays well for a third party shooter. The stunning environment of the game and creative designs of monsters are real stars, although the characters are also quite fun.
Devil May Cry
Born from the ashes of a resident evil
As the fans of both franchises know, Devil May Cry Originally began as Resident Evil 4. Finally, the Higeki Kamiya team took the project too different to go through the next entry into the horror series, which led to the creation of 2001 Devil May Cry.
Every game devil May Cry, ranked by difficulty
Devil May Cry has always been known for their difficulties, but some are incredibly brutal and unforgivable in their overall challenge.
Split into missions and push the action to the forefront, Devil May Cry It moves with a blister when players try to remove all sorts of enemies in style by handling Dante's different weapons and movements. Similarly Resident Evil, Devil May Cry It contains a lot of puzzles and balls. The series would expand to fight in later posts, but the original Devil May Cry is closest Resident Evil.
Alone in the dark: A new nightmare
Accepting the plan of resident evil
1992 Alone in the dark was the release of milestones in the Horror video game and almost certainly influenced later projects as Resident Evil and Silent Hill. However, the franchise quickly lost steam and until 1994 and its third numbered entry, Alone in the darkThe main concept felt tired. IP would not return until 2001 and Nightmare He made his debut in a very different climate than his predecessors. No wonder the game took some ideas from the popular horror games PS1 Survival that again defined the genre Alone in the dark.
In a franchise, which is largely consisting of a large but hard-to-bey (1992 Alone in the dark) or terrible editions (Lighting), Nightmare can just be the best Alone in the dark A game, or at least the one that modern players could have at least entertained. The 2001 game, which represents two playable figures and the island setting, is visually impressive for its era, especially its lighting effects.
Dayymare: 1998
The clone of the evil resident who has problems but also the magic
To be honest, I hesitate to recommend Lyymare games (1998 and 1994 Sandcastle). Both are deeply defective horror games that respect respect Resident Evil Without really approaching their magic. They are clumsy, rough, somewhat buggy and prone rather frustrating than fun moments. The games also lean too much in the action area, but the fight is not good enough to carry this aspect of things.
Yet the love of the developer to Resident Evil During each moment, especially in design and creation places. Therefore, if you are a hard fans of franchise capcom and you don't mind somewhat harsh adventure, Dayymare: 1998 And its sequel/prequel is worth considering.
Dino Crisis Series
Resident Evil with Dinos (& by Capcom)
Essentially Resident Evil But with dinosaurs, Dino crisis It retains many elements that helped make Capcom's zombie franchise so beloved. There are puzzles, limited inventory, tank controls and tight spaces and taken into account in the original Dino crisisAnd the dinosaurs produce a lot of unforgettable meetings, even if they are not particularly scary.
Dino Crisis 2 It is rather an action game and maybe it is the best of the series. While franchise would continue to produce another main entrance and spin-off, they are not great and should only be played for finishing purposes.
