As is the case every year, October in 2022 has plenty of scary games lined up, including Sons of the Forest, Yomawari: Lost in the Dark, and the multiplayer game Resident Evil Re: Verse. It is also rumored that the next entry in the Dark Pictures Anthology, The Devil in Me, will be getting an October release.
