Top 3 Horror Games Hitting Switch in 2023

Abylight Studios has joined forces with Frictional Games to bring three chilling titles to the Nintendo Switch in 2025: SOMA, Amnesia: Rebirth, and Amnesia: The Bunker. Frictional Games, known for their groundbreaking work in the horror genre, has entrusted Abylight Studios with porting these games, thus expanding their eerie universes to the Switch audience.

Despite Frictional Games shifting their focus away from horror, their legacy in the genre remains strong, particularly with the Amnesia series. Fans eager for more horror on the Nintendo Switch will soon have the chance to experience the unique narratives and terrifying atmospheres of these three acclaimed games.

Following successful negotiations, both digital and physical editions of SOMA, Amnesia: Rebirth, and Amnesia: The Bunker are set to launch on the Nintendo Switch in 2025. SOMA delves into sci-fi horror, exploring themes of artificial intelligence and the essence of humanity. Amnesia: Rebirth brings back the classic gameplay elements fans love from the Amnesia series, while Amnesia: The Bunker immerses players in the harrowing setting of World War 1, challenging them to survive in a semi-open world filled with dread.
