Top 3 Horror Games Launching on Switch in 2023

Abylight Studios has joined forces with Frictional Games to bring the chilling horror experiences of SOMA, Amnesia: Rebirth, and Amnesia: The Bunker to Nintendo Switch players in 2025. This collaboration will allow fans to dive into these acclaimed titles, known for their unique scares and compelling narratives. Frictional Games, renowned for its contributions to the horror genre, has entrusted Abylight Studios with the task of porting these games to the Switch, marking a significant expansion for the platform's horror gaming library.

As Frictional Games shifts its focus away from horror, their legacy in the genre remains strong, particularly with the Amnesia series. The anticipation among fans for more horror titles on the Nintendo Switch has been palpable, and this announcement promises to fulfill those desires with three of Frictional's most popular releases.

Following extensive negotiations, both studios have agreed to release digital and physical editions of SOMA, Amnesia: Rebirth, and Amnesia: The Bunker for the Nintendo Switch in 2025. SOMA delves into sci-fi themes, exploring artificial intelligence and the essence of human existence. Amnesia: Rebirth brings back the familiar gameplay mechanics loved by fans of the series, while Amnesia: The Bunker immerses players in the harrowing environment of World War 1 trenches within a semi-open world setting. Each of these titles will be available both digitally and physically on the Nintendo Switch.

In addition to these exciting releases, a physical edition of the existing Amnesia Collection for Nintendo Switch is set to launch later this year. This collection includes the iconic Amnesia: The Dark Descent, often hailed as one of the best horror games ever made, and its indirect sequel, Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, a collaboration between Frictional Games and The Chinese Room. The announcement has sparked enthusiasm among fans eager to experience more horror on their Switch, although specific release dates for these ports have yet to be announced by either studio.

With the upcoming availability of these horror titles on the Switch, there is growing curiosity about whether future Nintendo consoles will offer an even broader range of mature-rated games. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned for more details on the release dates of these Frictional Games titles and other horror gaming news.
