Brings what grabs you about Hellboy: The Science of Evil: plenty of humour, melee combat with weapons or fists and action-packed real-time combat.

You play a resurrected zombie in a retro-futuristic 1950s America, chomping your way through the town of Punchbowl with black humor. You turn victims into zombie allies who fight alongside you, all backed by a soundtrack of modern indie covers of classic songs.

BloodRayne: Terminal Cut

Dark, serious atmosphere

As the half-vampire dhampir Rayne, you slash and shoot your way through Nazi occultists and monsters in a pulpy third-person action game. The Terminal Cut brings the 2002 cult classic to modern PCs with technical updates.

Lollipop Chainsaw

Lots of humour

A loud, campy zombie hack-and-slash where you play cheerleader Juliet, carving through undead hordes with a chainsaw and pom-poms. The comic-book look, cheeky dialogue and rock soundtrack give it its unique flavor.

Onee Chanbara Origin

Easy to pick up

You slice through hordes of zombies and demons as sisters Aya and Saki in fast, flashy combo-driven hack and slash. The campy presentation, playful outfits and deliberately over-the-top tone define the series.

BloodRayne

Dark, serious atmosphere

You play Rayne, a half-vampire agent who carves through occult Nazi forces in the 1930s with blades, guns and gory finishing moves. A straightforward, brutal action romp with a pulpy tone.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Lots of humour

As the Slayer you brawl through Sunnydale in the style of the TV show, using martial arts combos and wooden stakes against vampires and demons. The show's witty humor and tone carry the experience.

Splatterhouse

Dark, serious atmosphere

You fight your way as Rick in a hockey mask through gory, grotesque horror levels that swing between splatter and slapstick. The combat is direct and brutal, and the violence is staged with dark humor.

Onimusha: Warlords

Strong, story-driven narrative

You play the samurai Samanosuke, fighting demons through feudal Japan in a sword-focused action adventure with a strong sense of atmosphere. This HD remaster adds widescreen support and more precise analog controls to the classic combat.

Onimusha: Warlords
