10 Scariest Video Game Enemies That Stalk You

10. Xenomorph - Alien Isolation

Alien Isolation did many things right. It took everything we love about the world of Alien, from the retro styled look at futuristic space travel, to the ambiance that draped the first two films, and sucked the audience in.

It also retained the ability to scare the living crap out of you!

The majority of Alien Isolation has you in a cat and mouse chase with our Xenomorph friend, and no, we are not the cat.

Armed with very little, you spend most of your trek through this decrepit space station with little more than a motion tracker. Nothing fills you with dread more than the sudden beep, followed by the green blob on the tracker approaching your position, faster and faster.

Much of your play-through will be spent in the muggy air of old crew mates' lockers as you desperately hold your breath to avoid detection. The knowledge that there's a Xenomorph pressed up against the door conjures a feeling of horror not many games can match. In fact, with the amount of time you do spend hiding away in lockers, it's shocking this wasn't actually called Locker Simulator.

Alien Isolation is terrifying, intense and relentless. But it's a bloody good embodiment of the franchise.
