10 Video Games That Could Secretly Dominate 2019

Besides the release of its mind-bending trailer and a smidgen of gameplay last year, Bigben Interactive's creepy new horror title The Sinking City has been kept tightly under wraps. Mixing Lovecraftian horror and open-world detective exploration, this grim tale launches players into a world of terrifying monsters and palpable mystery within an eerie 1920's coastal setting.

While the game boasts unique mechanics and a setting that's rarely utilised in video game horror, above all else, it refuses to hold the player's hand, preventing the use of waypoints or navigation and forcing them to investigate the game's world with little more than their wits and cunning. It's safe to say that there's a lot about The Sinking City that's different from other games in the genre, and that's where it's likely to find success.

Looking at the scope of horror games releasing this year, there's very few that can match the weird and immersive nature of The Sinking City. It looks to be a unique horror experience that will surprise fans of the genre and find success with players who prefer a slightly more challenging and engaging approach to open-world exploration. Seen as its arriving in three months, it's also not too long until players can get stuck into this haunting Lovecraftian nightmare.
