The Return of Survival Horror

Resident Evil has become too much of an action game. Silent Hill is going to be reinvented and who knows if that game will stay true to its roots.Neither series is interested in being on the Wii U. Where do Wii U fans turn for some Survival Horror (or any horror) gameplay? Indies of course. One cool survival horror game thats already been released is Lone Survivor Director's Cut. And now another survival horror game is in the works for the Wii U.

Bizerta: Silent Evil, by Edrox Interactive, is a survival horror game coming to the Wii U. The game will have the player stuck in a mansion and hunted by evil creepy things. The game will focus on one character. I think this is good idea since the recent Resident Evil games have put in too many characters and its made the story too confusing. I always loved how Silent Hill focused on a single character, alone in the dark. I hope Silent Evil has more of a Silent Hill feel than Resident Evil.

Still, there are some worries as far as Silent Evil is concerned. The concept and the name are not too original. The game looks good but definitely reminds me a lot of Resident Evil, Zombi U and even Bioshock.

I'm hoping that the game will find its own voice and also take advantage of the Wii U gamepad. I hope its a game that Survival horror fans will love. We don't get too many of these types of games. As I said before, these games are becoming rare on systems other than the Wii U too. I guess time will tell whether Silent Evil lives up to its potential.
