Happy Halloween <em>Game Informer </em>audience!
Even though it’s the spookiest day of the year and we’re busy petting black cats, carving pumpkins, eating all the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups out of candy variety bags before handing them out to children this evening, and walking under ladders, it’s still Friday. That means we editors here at Game Informer have gathered up some editorial entries to share some games you should play this weekend. Considering it’s Halloween, this week’s round-up is a bunch of our favorite horror games and why you should consider checking them out for the holiday weekend!

But before that, let’s take a quick detour into all the fantastic stories we published this week. Brian Shea published his review of Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection and his review of Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Freelancer Nadia Oxford published her first byline at Game Informer with a review of Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake. Looking outside of reviews, I posted an interview with Adriyan Rae, the actress behind Hazel in South of Midnight, and Brian dove deep into NBA Street successor NBA The Run. On the news side of things, it was a jam-packed week between sci-fi horror game Routine finally getting a release date, mass layoffs at Amazon, the first-ever Breath of the Wild vinyl release, a free Vampire Survivors x Balatro collaboration, and a team-up between Netflix and Life Is Strange developer Don’t Nod, amongst plenty more.
And, as every Game Informer reader knows, that’s just a lil dash of everything we published this week. Within our various other website sections, like video and features, there’s plenty more to see and read, and we hope you do. As always, thank you for being a subscriber if you are one, and if you aren’t, head here to join the growing ranks of the smartest and coolest and most fun audience in the world. Alrighty, roll the tape (or text or whatever):

I am big fan of the genre I like to refer to as “s*** going wrong in space,” and Dead Space 2 leans into that terror well by iterating and improving on the combat, and giving protagonist Isaac all kinds of excuses to face the vast emptiness of space. It’s also a game that pulled off the single-shot idea about seven years before God of War (2018) made it one of its major selling points. It’s a cool feature that I love in God of War, as well, but something about being stuck on various space stations and managing to survive the whole experience literally beside Isaac just works well for the horror genre.
It’s also home to the infamous eyeball scene (don’t look it up if you’re squeamish) and has an ending that I adore. I still occasionally look it up on YouTube when I want to relive it. I highly recommend it during this spooky season, even if you haven’t played the first game. But I will say, the remake of the first Dead Space is very good, too, so I would encourage you to play that one, as well. But 2 is better.
