Adding a Horror or Survival Horror Tag?

BloodieKnux · Nov 6, 2021

I'm wondering why that especially with the more recent releases and amount of launches this year alone that we still don't have a Horror Tag. We have tags for many other genres, from Shooters, to Family Friendly, Action Adventure, to Racing and more.

But there is no dedicated Horror tag. I see all horror games listed under Action adventure, and it makes it really hard to find specific games, when I'm filtering when a game like Visage gets mixed in with Games like Fenyx: Immortals rising. Now I understand that it may be technically considered under that main genre, and is essentially a sub-genre, but I feel that horror has long been its own genre with other genres within it at this point. If it's still an action adventure and horror title why not have both like we see with games as is.

I would love this to change, so we can accommodate fans of that genre, but also help with being able to filter games that someone is particularly looking for. The changes that have been made have been great, and only hope that others feel that this small change can help a lot as well.

Do you happen to have a link to the official Xbox Channel so I can make that suggestion.

[quote user="Burst Axe"]It is a Survival-Horror/Action/3rd-person Shooting game. [/quote] That makes no sense. Survival-Horror is already a sub-genre, not a genre of it's own. As in: Action-Horror or Survival-Horror. At most, a survival-Horror is either
third or first person but that can be applied to most games. Horror itself may be broad but Survival-Horror isn't because it has been broken down to fit specific criteria that is associated with. Survival-horror is a sub-genre just like Action-Horror or even
an RPG Horror.

The point I'm making is that it is not a Survival-Horror game. It is a Survival-Horror

Nope. Even the devs called it dramatic horror. They know it's not a survival horror game, why can't you accept it?
