Top 3 Horror Games Hitting Switch in 2023

Abylight Studios has joined forces with Frictional Games to bring an exciting lineup of horror games to the Nintendo Switch in 2025. This collaboration will see the release of SOMA, Amnesia: Rebirth, and Amnesia: The Bunker, introducing these chilling titles to a new audience on the Switch. Frictional Games, renowned for their contributions to the horror genre, have entrusted Abylight Studios with the task of porting these games, marking a significant expansion of horror gaming options for Switch players.

While Frictional Games is shifting its focus away from horror, their legacy within the genre remains strong, particularly with the Amnesia series. Fans eager for more horror experiences on the Nintendo Switch can look forward to exploring the unique narratives and terrifying atmospheres of these three titles. Each game offers distinct horror experiences: SOMA delves into sci-fi themes of artificial intelligence and human existence, Amnesia: Rebirth revisits the familiar gameplay elements of the Amnesia series, and Amnesia: The Bunker plunges players into the harrowing setting of World War 1.
