Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Pac-Man and Alan Wake are now playable on the Xbox One. Of the 100+ titles that have been added to the console’s backwards compatibility program since it launched in November, only a handful of them have been of the horror persuasion. At least Remedy’s beloved supernatural thriller is in good, if somewhat meager, company in Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, Condemned: Criminal Origins and the first two Doom games.
It’s uncomfortable to think about, but there are some people who haven’t yet been exposed to this strange and wonderful game. Fortunately, Remedy has turned Alan Wake into a pre-order incentive for Quantum Break, which releases on April 5 for PC and Xbox One. If you have to pre-order something, you could do worse.
This leaves us with a legion of horror games that are still waiting to get some love. I’m not sure what’s taking Dead Space so long, but that needs to happen already.
So, which of the Xbox 360’s many horror games are you the most eager to play on the Xbox One?
