10 Scariest Video Game Enemies That Stalk You

2. Mr. X - Resident Evil 2 Remake

Though Nemesis is perhaps the most well known in the Resident Evil franchise, nothing comes close to the sheer terror Mr. X puts players through in Resident Evil 2 Remake.

The introduction to Mr. X is brutal and showcases his brute strength as he plunges his fist through a wall and crushes an innocent mans head. From there, every corner becomes an internal struggle to go around in the hopes that his persistent venture to kill you isn't heading your way.

As you make your way through Racoon City Police Department, the loud thud of his foreboding footsteps echo through its many halls. As you desperately attempt to complete objectives, it's nigh on impossible not to bump into him once or twice.

And when he does, the chase is on as he pushes back hordes of zombies with one goal in mind -- you. As you push past the multitude of nasties that reside in the hallways, you'll have to do so quietly with the mindset that you won't startle Mr. X.

He's like The Terminator, beefed up and with the face of someone who's spent too many hours underwater. If that's not terrifying enough, I don't know what is.
