I couldn't think of enough good horror games to even come up with a shortlist, so put them in their secondary genres instead and scrapped the Horror category for this year.

Off the top of my head: Fatal Frame V, Soma, Resident Evil HD Remaster, Until Dawn, Resident Evil Revelations 2. Dying Light is stretching it a little. Would 5 be enough?

The only fighter I could think of was Mortal Kombat X and I disqualified it for terrible DLC practices

*edit* Thanks Spurge I completely forgot about PT!
