When you hear ’multiplayer horror,’ no doubt the first game that springs to mind is Dead by Daylight. Of course, there are others. Phasmophobia, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Sons of the Forest. But it’s DBD that embodies and encapsulates the pillars of the genre. BHVR’s superlative online slasher continues to surge on Steam, but there’s a new indie horror that’s suddenly blowing up, with more players, and a huge 10/10, ‘overwhelmingly positive’ rating after thousands of reviews. You might have heard of Lethal Company by now. But it’s such a hit, it’s even beating Dead by Daylight.
