00:00Hey everyone, welcome back to the channel!
00:02Today we're diving straight into the dark side of gaming with the top 20 upcoming horror games of 2026.
00:08This year is shaping up to be absolutely packed with terrifying worlds,
00:12unsettling stories and nightmares that go way beyond simple jump scares.
00:16John Carpenter's Toxic Commando is shaping up to be one of the most unhinged chaotic co-op
00:29shooters of 2026, a four-player first-person action spectacle that fully embraces outrageous
00:3680s action horror energy and turns it into pure interactive mayhem. The world has been utterly
00:42transformed by a catastrophic scientific experiment that ripped reality open and unleashed a nightmarish
00:48entity known as the Sludge God, plunging everything into an undead-fueled apocalypse. In response,
00:54you become part of a ragtag over-armed squad of toxic commandos whose sole mission is to push back the
01:00end of the world using an absurdly satisfying mix of guns, grenades, vehicles, special abilities and
01:06relentless teamwork. Darkwood II is the long-awaited official sequel to the cult classic top-down
01:22survival horror experience and developed by Icepick Lodge, the studio renowned for the oppressive
01:27atmosphere of the pathologic series, with the original creators at Acid Wizard Studio returning
01:32in a consulting role. While it preserves the franchise's signature bleak, suffocating tone,
01:37this sequel tells a completely standalone story, meaning you can step into its nightmare without
01:43having played the first game and still fully grasp its world and horrors. This time, the descent begins
01:48in the post-Soviet ruins surrounding a dying aral sea, where deserts, marshlands and deep waters have
01:54been twisted by strange anomalies into lethal, unpredictable terrain.
02:08The Florist is an upcoming survival horror title from New Zealand-based indie developer Unclear Games,
02:14scheduled to launch globally in 2026 for PC and consoles, including PS5 and likely Switch 2,
02:22and it draws deeply from classic survival horror traditions while carving out its own unsettling
02:26identity. The game embraces fixed-camera angles, slow-burn exploration and observation-driven puzzles
02:32that reward patience and attention, immediately evoking the tension and intimacy of genre-defining
02:38classics. You play as Jessica Park, a florist who travels to the seemingly peaceful lakeside town
02:44of Joycliffe to complete what should have been a simple, last-minute delivery.
02:58Directive 8020 marks the next major chapter in the Dark Pictures Anthology from Supermassive Games,
03:04the studio behind Until Dawn and The Quarry, and once again blends cinematic storytelling with interactive
03:10survival horror built around player choice and consequence. Set in the cold, unforgiving void of
03:15deep space, the story follows the crew of the colony ship Cassiopeia, whose mission to find humanity a new home
03:22ends in disaster when the vessel crashes on a hostile alien world. What initially seems like isolation
03:28quickly gives way to paranoia and terror as the crew discovers a shape-shifting alien organism capable of
03:34perfectly mimicking its victims, turning every interaction into a question of trust and every
03:39decision into a potential death sentence.
03:47Something's wrong with Sims. I lost her. I saw her float away.
03:51Phase Zero is an upcoming survival horror game that immediately stands out for boldly fusing classic 90s
03:56horror sensibilities with modern design, developed by Spina Studio, a team made up of veterans who have
04:02worked on projects like Superhot and Dying Light. The game drops you into the cursed town of Flint
04:07Peak, a place ravaged by a grotesque illness that has twisted its inhabitants into nightmarish creatures
04:13and transformed the environment itself into a suffocating, hostile maze. You experience the story
04:19through two unlikely survivors, Mary, a journalist, and Guy, an injured engineer, each fighting to endure the
04:26horrors unfolding around them. Exploration takes place through pre-rendered environments that deliberately
04:31echo PS1-era survival horror, complete with fixed camera angles, eerie sound design, and puzzles that
04:38heighten tension by forcing you to move slowly and deliberately through danger.
04:53Hunger is shaping up to be a relentlessly brutal first-person PV-PVVE extraction shooter, infused with horror
05:00and RPG systems, set within a plague-ravaged vision of Napoleonic Europe, often referred to as the
05:07world after the end. You step into the role of one of the living, venturing into cursed territories alongside
05:12other players on high-risk expeditions where survival is never guaranteed. Each run pushes you to scavenge
05:19scarce resources, confront grotesque monsters born from the plague, and clash with rival survivors who are just as
05:25desperate to escape alive. Combat blends violent melee encounters with ranged firefights, while deep
05:31progression systems allow you to shape your character through talents, gear, and crafting as you grow stronger.
05:36Yudang Two Hearts is an ambitious stealth action thriller from South Korean developer EVR Studio that
05:57merges cinematic storytelling with tactical stealth and dynamic combat in a tightly woven narrative experience.
06:04Set in a near-future unified Korea teetering on the edge of collapse, the story unfolds through multiple
06:10perspectives, pulling you into a politically charged web of conspiracy and unrest. The plot intertwines
06:16the lives of a North Korean soldier, a K-pop star, and a mysterious operative, gradually revealing how
06:22their paths collide amid chaos and hidden agendas. Gameplay moves fluidly between tense infiltration,
06:29calculated stealth, and bursts of intense action, supported by intelligent enemy AI,
06:34realistic tactical elements, and smooth, expressive animations.
06:45Long Gone takes a quieter, yet deeply haunting approach as a 3D pixel art narrative adventure,
06:59set in a post-apocalyptic suburban world, slowly being reclaimed by nature. You play as a lone
07:05survivor wandering through forgotten neighborhoods frozen in time, where abandoned houses, overgrown
07:10streets, and silent interiors tell stories without words. Rather than relying on constant combat,
07:15the game focuses on exploration and investigation, allowing the environment itself to become the
07:20storyteller as you piece together the lives of those who once lived there through the objects
07:24they left behind. Every drawer opened, every cabinet searched, and every item examined reveals fragments
07:30of human history, turning small discoveries into emotional moments.
07:51Cinder City is a large-scale MMO tactical shooter from NCSoft's Big Fire games, and built in Unreal
07:57Engine 5 to deliver an expansive, high-fidelity multiplayer experience. Set in a post-apocalyptic,
08:03sci-fi-infused version of Soul, the game's world is shaped by collapsing timelines, creating a surreal
08:08landscape where futuristic technology collides with real-world urban decay and zombie-infested
08:14districts inspired by actual locations across the city. Players can expect seamless traversal across
08:19vast open environments, punctuated by large-scale tactical firefights that emphasize positioning,
08:25coordination, and realistic combat systems. MMO mechanics are deeply integrated, supporting
08:31persistent progression, dynamic encounters, and large shared spaces filled with threats and opportunities.

09:50Tormentosa, a place steeped in religious symbolism, fanatical cult beliefs, and grotesque statues that
09:56feel less like stone and more like watchful sentinels. What truly defines the experience is
10:02its brutal blood mechanic, where your own blood is not just a thematic element, but a literal resource,
10:08used as ammunition and power. Every shot you fire drains your life force, forcing you to constantly
10:13weigh survival against aggression and turning combat into a tense balance between desperation and restraint.
10:20You take on the role of William, a resurrected soldier brought back into a
10:50world twisted by a mysterious substance known as neptoglobin, a corrupting force that has warped
10:55both humanity and the land itself. Combat is visceral and demanding, blending supernatural abilities
