Games Like The Spirit of the Samurai (2026)

Shared: tier:indie

Four friends, one camera, and a procedurally generated underground full of things that want to kill you on film. Content Warning is the co-op horror bit that somehow became the social satire nobody asked for but everyone needed.

Shared: Metroidvania-Lite

94% positive from over 150k Steam reviews, and it still earns every point, a third-person action-adventure that gets Siberia, stealth, and tomb puzzles exactly right.

The dating-sim wrapper is bait, and MiSide knows it. What starts as idle chores with an anime girl becomes a genre-hopping psychological horror that two developers built better than most studios manage with a full team.

Shared: Horror Atmosphere

Russian roulette with a 12-gauge and enough item-based mind games to make pure luck feel like a skill issue. Dirt cheap, brutally short, weirdly hard to put down.

Shared: Three Playable Characters

Three playable characters, each built around a completely different combat philosophy, and a style meter that goes from 'Dismal' to 'Smokin' Sexy Style!' - DMC5 is the combo-action benchmark that keeps dragging people back for second and third playthroughs.
