Prey

2017 Arkane Studios

Prey
HORROR CENTRALITY
60 /100

Prey blends survival horror moments with sci-fi thriller elements, but its core is an immersive sim/ FPS focused on exploration, combat, and puzzles. Fear and vulnerability are present, but removing horror wouldn’t fundamentally change the game, placing it in the mid-range of horror centrality.
