The Evil Within like Resident Evil 4 Remake

Resident Evil 4 Remake missing Xbox Game Pass is a huge bummer, but there are some stellar horror games on the service you shouldn't miss. 

The closest you'll get to a Resident Evil game on Game Pass is The Evil Within series. They are entertaining third-person horror titles that will test your wits and have some over-the-top horror situations that fans of the original Resident Evil 4 would love. In fact, The Evil Within's director is the same as RE4's! 

Another game you should check out, in place of Resident Evil 4 Remake, is the original Dead Space trilogy. While the remake of Dead Space hasn't made its way to Game Pass yet, the original sci-fi horror games (especially the first two) are still suspenseful and will keep you on your toes from start to finish.
