Horror Games Roundup from the last ~60 days
(In time order to show what happened when)
State of Play in early June then Summer Game Fest 2022 produced noteworthy news. It was awesome to see so many horror games highlighted in both. Mostly due to Callisto Protocol and all of the various Resident Evil titles.
April
Fobia: St. Dinfna Hotel possible release date, preorder link, and video 2 added
The Quarry video 2 added
NEW: Conscript added. Thanks to Ptirle for info and the addition! This looks like a cool top down horror set during WWI.
Chernobylite for PS5 released. Moved to different genre games archive
Evil Dead: The Game video 3 added
Injection π23 – Ars Regia May 23rd release date added
The House of the Dead Remake released. Moved to different genre games archive
May
Resident Evil Re:Verse added to different genre games list. There was recent news about this forgotten shooter set in the Resident Evil universe and now more than ever, it looks like it could release this year.
Dead Space Remake release date and article 4 added. Also a non-important video was removed to tighten it up
Evil Dead: The Game released. Moved to archive. This one was reviewed well and popular with players. Always good to see.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre video 2 added. A game vs. original film comparison video. It's unreal how authentic the locations are going to be in the game.
NEW: The Chant added. A trippy and good looking third person horror game coming out this Fall for PS5
NEW: Silent Hill 2 Remake rumored game added. Supposedly it is a PS5 exclusive from Bloober Team. If true, this would be a dream to many players. SH2 is a classic and one of my favorite games also. Rumors should be taken with a grain of salt though. Then you won't be disappointed if doesn't happen.
Fobia: St. Dinfna Hotel June 28th release date, article 3, and video 3 added. This is turning out to look like a pretty good RE7-like horror game.
Injection π23 – Ars Regia released. Moved to archive
The Quarry multiplayer update delay info, article 3, and video 3 added. Online multiplayer will be added to the game via update by July 8th. Local multiplayer is still available day one.

NEW: Resident Evil Village for PSVR2 added. This is supposedly a port of the PS5 game for use with the upcoming PSVR2. It's strange how they didn't mention it to be an update to the existing game. Guess we'll see.
Callisto Protocol release date (December 2nd), article 3, and videos 2 and 3 added

Misc
Credits section added. Ptirle is first member to suggest a game that was added to the list!
Changelog and Archive separated. Makes things easier and is better organized.
Added Bonus section with another big ol' list of horror games. This time by a user on IMDb who lists over a thousand horror games dating back to 1972. It's interesting and a trip back to memory lane.
Added a Stalled, less likely to release, or has not received updates category. There have been no signs and no news to change anyone's mind on the outlook of these titles. It is unfortunate but it might be best they receive their own category near the bottom of the list. Good thing is the games that are confirmed or likely to release will be easier to see. I hesitate to add a title to this category. There must be no updates in a long time or in Abandoned's case, reports that it's stalled, been placed on hold, or otherwise looking all doom and gloom. Hopefully some of these titles will be able to break out of this category and I will move them accordingly.
The games moved from Confirmed category to the new Stalled category:
Abandoned, Borneo, Do Not Open, Ghosts, Opus Castle
The games moved from Rumored category to the new Stalled category:
Once Upon a Time in Roswell, Project Nightmares Case 36: Henrietta Kedward
Edit: Just realized I’ve been doing this 6 months. 6 months and we have 69 total games guys. Also if the mobile phone doesn’t load this have to restart phone to get the memory back. It’s gotten too big.
