PC is the evil lab where many new horror games are grown and tested. Some of the greatest modern horror games are word-of-mouth hits that began life as experimental PC exclusives. To that end, we’ve selected the top 12 horror games you can play right now on PC.

While some of these aren’t exclusive to PC, each game on this list either got its start or found its audience on the platform. Some of these are horror classics that have influenced countless imitators, while others are still hidden gems lurking in the shadows of digital storefronts. These are our picks for the 12 best horror games on PC.

And when you’re done, be sure to check out our more expansive list of the 25 best PC games to play to continue on your gaming journey.

The 12 Best Horror Games on PC

12. IMSCARED

IMSCARED: A Pixelated Nightmare is the only game on this list that breaks through its .exe boundaries and carries the scares into the real world. As you creep through IMSCARED’s low-res environments, finding keys and attempting to escape the nightmare you’re currently in, an entity known as White Face stalks your every move.

Once caught, White Face triggers a crash back to your desktop and in its wake, a folder containing a text document appears on screen, taunting your failure. It plays with your mind in other ways too: your browser might suddenly open, landing on a spooky YouTube video; elsewhere, HTML web documents appear in another folder, showing a map and the supposed exit to the area you’re in, but can you trust it? It even goes as far as requiring you to delete in-game documents to progress through certain moments. Much like Eternal Darkness, IMSCARED brings its unique style of horror outside of itself — a truly cursed game. — Jesse Gomez

Release Date: January 31, 2016 | Developer: Ivan Zanotti’s MyMadnessWorks

11. The Cat Lady

Less than a minute into The Cat Lady, you find out the main character, a lonely 40-year old woman named Susan Ashworth, has committed suicide. Soon after, she reawakens in a mysterious world, only to be greeted by someone called The Queen of Maggots who instructs her to remove five ‘parasites’ from the world so that she may finally find peace.

The Cat Lady, despite its complex themes around mental health and serious tone, is surprisingly simple to play. You’ll explore twisted and bizarre environments, collect various items to solve puzzles and guide Susan’s decisions via dialogue choices with other characters. But beyond its traditional point-and-click adventure trappings is an affecting story, rooted in an authentic struggle of a woman who no longer wants to live. — Jesse Gomez

Release Date: December 1, 2012 | Developer: Harvester Games

Dead By Daylight

Dead By Daylight launched in 2016 as a meager but well-meaning asymmetrical slasher horror game where various bumbling teenagers avoided gnarly eviscerations from archetypal slasher movie villains. By 2021, it’s become the Smash Bros. of horror games, bringing in iconic killer characters like Freddy Kreuger and Michael Myers to legendary horror game villains like Resident Evil’s Nemesis and Silent Hill’s Pyramid Head. Dead By Daylight continues to evolve on its premise, routinely adding new characters, features, and more to its rock-solid foundation. One thing remains constant, though: it’s just as fun to play the game as a group of seemingly helpless survivors in one round as it is to play as a huge, powerful, horror movie monster in the next. — Brian Altano

Release Date: June 14, 2016 | Developer: Behaviour Interactive Inc. | IGN’s Dead By Daylight Review

9. Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is one of the older games on this list, but it’s here for good reason: its gameplay mechanics helped spur a rebirth (no pun intended with Amnesia’s recent sequel) of the survival horror genre that had drifted into action game territory.

Amnesia starts off with the protagonist, Daniel, waking up alone in a dark castle, Brennenburg. He has no memory of how he got there (hence the name), and as he explores his surroundings, he realizes there’s a shadow stalking him. Wandering about the castle are other creatures that will give chase if they spot you. This wouldn’t be a huge problem if you could fight back, but you can’t. Your only defense is to run and often hide in the dark – a stark contrast to more action-oriented horror games like Resident Evil 5 which had come out the year before.

But here’s the kicker: stay in the dark too long and you’ll lose your mind. It’s not the first game to have a “sanity meter” (Eternal Darkness says hello), but its implementation in Amnesia is pretty ingenious. You’ll need to balance the game’s use of light to see what the hell you’re even doing with hiding in the darkness to avoid monsters, the same darkness that is slowly driving you insane.

Amnesia’s sequels and follow-ups all build upon The Dark Descent’s mechanics in smart ways, and other developers have taken notice. The Dark Descent still holds up today, even if the controls and interface are a little rough on consoles, so if you’re in the mood to sit in the dark for 10 hours, take a trip to Brennenburg. Just don’t stay in the dark too long. — Jobert Atienza

Release Date: September 8, 2010 | Developer: Frictional Games | IGN’s Amnesia: The Dark Descent Review

8. World of Horror

Fans of Junji Ito and/or H.P. Lovecraft will want to look into adding World of Horror to their list of scary games to play this October. This “1-Bit” horror game feels like you just stumbled upon a series of eerie and extremely detailed drawings on MS Paint.

Set in Shiokawa, Japan, players are tasked with stopping the apocalypse by exploring various locations and fighting monsters inspired by Japanese horror manga and urban legends. It is, of course, a horror game, but World of Horror also adds elements from the roguelite and RPG genres.

World of Horror’s grasp of tension, perfectly paired soundtrack and overall challenge make it a must-play on PC.Taylor Lyles

Release Date: February 20, 2020 | Developer: panstasz

7. S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Few games have successfully captured a sense of overwhelming bleakness and foreboding like the STALKER trilogy does. Whether you’re racing to the site of the world’s worst nuclear incident deep within Chernobyl or discovering the secrets hidden within the decrepit city of Pripyat, this living, breathing world is ready to sap the life from your body. So if going toe-to-toe against spirits deep underground, or zombified foes who were once your companions and bloodsucking mutants sound like your kind of thing, it’s time to pay a visit to the Chernobyl exclusion zone. — Jesse Gomez

Release Date: March 20, 2007 | Developer: GSC Game World | IGN’s STALKER Review

6. Five Nights at Freddy’s

There was always something inherently creepy about being in a Chuck E. Cheese restaurant as a kid, a dimly lit, rat-themed birthday party center with sad pizza, a mostly broken arcade room, and a giant animatronic animal band that would shut down in between songs to stare into the souls of children with giant, dead-eyed looks. Five Nights at Freddy’s is an entire game about the fleeting joy and haunted magic of a seemingly lifeless collection of animatronic pizza restaurant mascots who suddenly spring to life and become horrifying nightmares, although instead of being a kid at a birthday party, you’re an employee tasked with watching the restaurant after dark and surviving the night yourself.

You’ll flip through security cameras and other various devices while unsettling mechanical faces pop up sporadically or generally go bump in the night, but what makes it all so unique is that Five Nights at Freddy’s is one of the few horror games that most kids can play without enduring a lifetime of trauma. It’s rare to have a game series that can cater to both young and adult horror fans, mostly because it features a thing we can all agree on: animatronic animals are terrifying. — Brian Altano

Release Date: August 18, 2014 | Developer: Scott Cawthon

5. Pathologic

Pathologic was ahead of its time when it was released way back in 2006. Set in a mysterious town beset by an unknown plague, Pathologic combines horror and mystery for a truly unique experience. Choose one of three player characters who must survive for 12 days while uncovering the mystery of the ‘sand plague.’

Each day, new quests will be available that will take characters one step closer to the truth. But be warned, because these quests will only be available on a specific day, and once it passes it’s gone for good.

Pathologic and its sequel Pathologic 2 truly excel at atmosphere. While jump scares are a bit few and far between, the overwhelming sense of dread will linger through your entire playthrough, and your time in Pathologic will burrow in your mind for much longer. — Matt Kim

Release Date: August 18, 2006 | Developer: Ice-Pick Lodge

Loading

4. Phasmophobia

Phasmophobia came onto the scene like a bat out of hell. Four players can join up as amateur ghost hunters, armed with tools like night-vision cameras, holy water, and radios. As an early access game, there are still plenty of technical kinks to work out, but the core premise works exceptionally well. Maybe that’s why so many Phasmophobia-likes have popped up on Steam in recent months.

You’ll wander through haunted homes and abandoned prisons, calling out for spirits from the beyond. Gather enough clues and you can try and successfully identify what kind of ghost is haunting that location. Deduce correctly for a nice payday.

As the clock ticks, the chances of running into a ghost increase, and so does the danger. Nothing beats that moment when you suddenly see your friend twist and contort from getting got by one of Phasmophobia’s many evil spirits as you all scramble to the exit for a hasty escape. — Matt Kim

Release Date: September 18, 2020 | Developer: Kinetic Games

3. Chilla’s Art Games

Chilla’s Art is the name of an indie dev team formed by two brothers in Japan. Since 2018, the duo has released over 15 micro horror games on Steam priced at just a couple of dollars. While these games might only be a few hours long, they pack a horrifying punch.

Every Chilla’s Art game is a unique experience but they’re typically played in the first-person and are centered around a mundane experience that quickly escalates into something terrible. One of the most well-known is The Convenience Store, where players take on the role of night-shift convenience store employee. As players go about their night, restocking items and checking inventory, creepy happenings such as strange customers, unexplained noises, and other horrifying encounters begin to intensify as the night goes on.

With so many Chilla’s Art Games to choose from it’s hard to recommend just one. But with such a low barrier to entry, pick a few and you’re guaranteed to have a good time. — Matt Kim

Release Dates: 2018–2020 | Developer: Chilla’s Art

2. Puppet Combo Games

Babysitter Bloodbath, Power Drill Massacre, and The Night Ripper. .. No, these aren’t forgotten grindhouse films from the ’80s, but rather delightfully gory and downright terrifying games created by solo indie horror developer, Puppet Combo.

Via Patreon and itch-io, over 20 games in the past decade, all of which offer no shortage of intense and unforgiving moments. Whether you’re escaping from a serial killer while babysitting, taking part in a deadly game of cat and mouse with a psychotic nun in a boarding school (in the aptly named Nun Massacre) or controlling a park ranger on a cold and stormy night while something stalks them from afar, Puppet Combo wholeheartedly embraces its PS1-style, VHS horror roots in every game.

Dire situations, sleazy companions, and unrelenting killers make each and every one of Puppet Combo’s games an unforgettable nightmare. — Jesse Gomez

Release Dates: 2012–2021 | Developer: Puppet Combo

1. Visage

When Konami canceled Silent Hills in 2015, a slew of spiritual successors and games heavily influenced by the Silent Hills’ playable teaser came out. This includes Sad Square Studios’ first game, the psychological horror Visage.

Set in the 1980s, you play as Dwayne Anderson, a resident of a large home that is being tormented by the supernatural as he tries to find a way out of the house and learn more about what is causing all the paranormal activity in his home.

As you explore the mostly dark and quiet house, supernatural entities will taunt you by breaking light bulbs, turning on/off lights, and slamming doors. This constant barrage of sensory terror, combined with trying to maintain Dwayne’s sanity, makes Visage one of the more challenging horror games released in recent years. It’s a trial and error game, but your patience is rewarded with a fascinating story, and plenty of jump scares.

While it may not be Silent Hills, the legacy of Konami’s unreleased game courses through the veins of Visage while also maintaining its own identity. — Taylor Lyles

Release Date: October 29, 2020 | Developer: SadSquare Studio

The 10 Best Open-World Games of All Time

Elden RingFallout: New VegasGTA 5Horizon: Forbidden WestMetal Gear Solid 5

From The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild to Elden Ring, these are our picks for best open-world games of all time.

By IGN Staff

Updated: Dec 21, 2022 7:33 pm

Posted: Mar 10, 2022 2:00 pm

Open-world games have come a long way over the years, offering more freedom to explore and in how we approach objectives, but which ones have it all? The best open world, the best challenges, the best story, the best characters?

IGN’s staff duked it out (in a professional manner, of course) to put together a list of the best open-world games, looking at how they deliver as a complete package in letting us best get lost in a world, take over enemy outposts, and find a ridiculous way to outrun enemies. So without further ado, here are IGN’s picks for the top 10 open-worlds games of all time.

The 10 Best Open World Games

10. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales

New York City around Christmastime is magic. And Insomniac has done an incredible job of recreating that charming atmosphere in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Every aspect of this follow-up to the 2018 Spidey hit is undoubtedly built on the great fundamentals of that first game. But the approach to the world, mission design, and story is altogether stronger in Miles Morales, even if there is less of it. But the focus on a more select story and missions allow Miles’ journey to be so personally impactful on the player and character.

It’s a fantastic debut solo outing for Miles, with improved and smoother traversal and combat options, a stirring story, and a host of intriguing, important things to do. And that’s all while looking and running so well, both on PS5 and PS4. Insomniac somehow captured the real-world magic of New York and imbued it into Spider-Man: Miles Morales, letting players experience it any time of year. — Jonathon Dornbush

Loading

9. Horizon Forbidden West

Horizon Forbidden West improves on the Zero Dawn experience in just about every way. Aloy’s new journey features a dense world full of meaningful sidequests, where each character and their stories offer a unique entry point into the world. And it’s a world that feels like it meaningfully lives and even evolves around Aloy and the player. And to better serve those sidequests, Guerrilla has extended the reach of Aloy’s world to the titular Forbidden West, with a host of memorable locations that offer insight into both the current tribes populating the world and the crumbled remains of our former civilization.

Climbing traversal may not be as free as some other games on this list, but the ability to better search underwater and even take to the skies are welcome, joyous additions to the formula. Horizon Forbidden West is certainly built on the foundation of other open-world games, including Zero Dawn, but it’s an amazing step in pushing the genre forward and creating a captivating adventure in its own right. — Jada Griffin

Loading

8. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain

Metal Gear Solid 5 is one of the best examples of how an open-world game should approach its challenges. There’s more than one way to go at any situation, and the result is a feeling of unprecedented freedom of choice.

At its best, it’s pure play, reminiscent of smashing Army men together in a playground sandbox, but with a fantastic soundtrack and more than enough of Kojima eccentricity to make it feel even more special. While the story is ultimately unfinished, and it can’t hold itself together through to the end, the freedom it affords makes it incredible regardless of its narrative shortcomings. — Seth Macy

Loading

7. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

It’s been a long-running joke that Skyrim exists on almost every platform imaginable. From its humble beginnings in 2011, launching on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360, Skyrim is everywhere, including Amazon Alexa devices, for good reason. It set an entirely new standard for what an open-world adventure could be and remains amazing. The PC version houses one of the most bustling modding communities of all time, even having full-length games spawn from it. And with the recent upgrade to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, Skyrim still looks and plays fantastic.

With its engrossing story, living open-world, and more content than any one person knows what to do with, The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim still stands today as one of the greatest open-world RPGs a person can spend their time with. — Mark Medina

6. Fallout: New Vegas

A fixture in the top open-world game discussion for the past 12 years, Fallout: New Vegas burned itself into our collective memories by dropping us into an amazing story that reacts to our choices and plays out all around us. Building on the foundation of Bethesda’s Fallout 3, New Vegas moved us to the more colorful and diverse western region of the post-nuclear apocalypse United States and put us on a path to intersect with conflicts large and small.

We meet some of the Fallout series’ best characters and follow what begins as a simple quest to find the man who shot you and left you for dead directly into the middle of a brewing three-way war between the New California Republic, a self-proclaimed new Roman emperor, and an immortal casino magnate to determine the fate of New Vegas. Even in all the years since, there’s rarely been an in-game world that felt as lived-in and busy or rich with stories, personalities, and dark humor – both on the surface and just beneath it – waiting for us to find them. — Dan Stapleton

Loading

5. Elden Ring

It may seem a little rash to just immediately catapult Elden Ring above some of the all-time greats that make up the top half of this list. That said, Elden Ring is one of the boldest and most groundbreaking open-world games of the past decade; one that empowers the player to find their own path without being guided by an endless series of map markers, waypoints, and hollow side quests.

The world of The Lands Between is not only gigantic, but it’s positively dense with caves and catacombs to discover, roaming boss battles to conquer, valuable treasures to uncover, and all manner of challenges to overcome. The journey through Elden Ring is not an easy one, especially if you’re not familiar with From Software’s unique philosophy when it comes to teaching its lessons through punishing difficulty, but it’s constantly rewarding, surprising, and awe-inspiring in ways few games are. — Mitchell Saltzman

Loading

4. Red Dead Redemption 2

Red Dead Redemption 2 is deliberate in the way it allows you to live out the life of a fictional cowboy named Arthur Morgan. Morgan’s story is an authored experience but the magic of Red Dead Redemption 2 is how the game’s open world allows players to flesh out that life with meaningful experiences thanks to its meticulously crafted world.

Want your Arthur to get really into hunting? Then have fun stalking, trapping, and skinning hundreds of animals, complete with their own food chain and habits. Want to get weirdly into artifact hunting? Then go right ahead. Or perhaps you just want to soak in the atmosphere and hand carve your bullets by campfire for a small damage buff. There are no wrong answers. Just a world stuffed with mystery and wonder that allows us to reach back in time and discover the world of the wild west for ourselves. — Nicholas Limon

Loading

3. Grand Theft Auto 5

A perfect send off to the Xbox 360 and PS3 era of gaming, Grand Theft Auto V’s legacy and influence has maintained a powerful presence in the industry spanning into two additional hardware generations, as GTA V proved to be a powerful force on both the PS4 and Xbox One, and may likely be again on the PS5 and Xbox Series. And, of course, it never truly leaves the spotlight thanks to the impressive and regular updates Grand Theft Auto Online receives.

But Grand Theft Auto V more than earns that legacy as a glorious achievement, thanks in part to its triple-protagonist structure that offers a compelling overarching narrative that keeps you invested in the end. And the immersiveness of its open world cannot be understated — Los Santos is brimming with life, interesting places to explore, and an incredible amount to do both in the campaign and in GTA Online. Compete in a triathlon, purchase properties, or even trade stocks in the virtual stock market — you can do all that and a lot more in the finest example of a modern open-world in gaming. — Taylor Lyles

Loading

2. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Even as it was released near other entries on this list, The Witcher 3 set a new bar for open-world games, one that plenty of other games are still compared to now, seven years later. From the barren hills of Velen to the bustling streets of Novigrad or the verdant fields of Blood & Wine’s Toussaint, every corner of The Continent is full to bursting with monsters to slay, secrets to uncover, and dozens of hours of side quests that feel just as fleshed out and meaningful as its main story.

Add on two of the best expansion packs ever in gaming, which are both included in the current retail version and introduce new maps, upgrades, and collectibles, and you have so many more reasons to explore this exceptional fantasy world. — Jon Ryan

Loading

1. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Breath of the Wild is the ultimate realization of the promise of the Zelda series, a template first laid out way back in the NES days. Breath of the Wild is, quite simply, the game we imagined ourselves playing all those years ago. The images we held in our minds, colored by the art in the instruction manual, were suddenly made three-dimensional, fully explorable, and infinitely replayable.

Even though Breath of the Wild came out in 2017, we’ve still not seen any game come close to its blend of charm, freedom, and gravitas. Simply pointing Link in any direction was a guarantee for discovery and adventure, and the movement afforded by the addition of so many easily climbable surfaces, makes it the greatest and most magical, fully realized open-world game ever created. — Seth Macy
