June 2025 is Going to Be a Massive Month for Horror Game Fans

Usually, October is known as the scariest month, but in 2025, the fear factor will arrive earlier in June. Instead of Halloween decorations and chilly weather, horror game enthusiasts have June to look forward to. On June 16, the open-world survival horror game, 7 Days to Die, will launch its Storms Brewing update. Following closely on June 24, the co-op ghost-hunting game, Phasmophobia, will drop its Chronicle update. To add more thrill, Five Nights at Freddy’s next title, Secret of the Mimic, is scheduled for release on June 13, promising additional scares for horror fans.

New Horror Video Games & Updates in June 2025

7 Days To Die Brings The Storm

7 Days to Die is an intense survival horror game where players must contend not only with swarms of zombies but also the harsh realities of food scarcity, sickness, severe weather conditions, and other challenges. After more than a decade in Early Access, it was finally officially released in July 2024. Throughout this period, developers The Fun Pimps consistently provided updates to the game.

Look forward to the upcoming Storms Brewing 2.0 expansion for the game “7 Days to Die“. This update introduces intensified and varied weather conditions across all biomes, such as intense storms, as well as potential hazards from extreme temperatures, radiation, and cold. Furthermore, novel types of zombies will make their appearance, including the sand-loving Plague Spitter, as well as the highly irradiated Charged Blue and Infernal Orange. The Experimental version of this update is set to launch on June 16, while the Stable version is planned for a release on June 30.

Phasmophobia Introduces Frightening Sounds

Initially launched in 2020, the game Phasmophobia tasks a team of one to four ghost hunters with accurately determining the nature of the spirit haunting each location. At the same time, they must maintain their mental fortitude to avoid being hunted and eliminated by the entity. Since its debut, Phasmophobia has gained widespread popularity among YouTube and Twitch streamers, and it continually expands its roster of haunting types, cursed items, and additional content.

On June 24th, a significant update for the game Phasmophobia is set to arrive, featuring a novel kind of proof: audio. With the brand-new Sound Recorder tool, players can capture a range of sounds from squeaky chairs to heartrending shrieks. Furthermore, the Journal has undergone an overhaul, as sound, video, and photo evidence are now categorized as “Media.” Players will be tasked with gathering various unique media types to ensure a flawless investigation.

Five Nights at Freddy’s Mimic Takes Center Stage

Lastly, on June 13, 2025, the eleventh primary installment in the protracted Five Nights at Freddy’s series, titled “The Secret of the Mimic“, will be released. This game presents a fresh setting, the derelict Murray’s Costume Manor, where players encounter the Mimic, an influential endoskeleton that can mimic the looks and abilities of other skeletons. Set in 1979, this game is one of the earliest Five Nights at Freddy’s titles timeline-wise, and it suggests unveiling more about the animatronics’ beginnings.

As an ardent fan, I’ve come across this enigmatic character called The Mimic. He’s made quite an appearance in the RUIN DLC of Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach and the Tales from the Pizzaplex book series. His origins and background remain shrouded in mystery, but it’s widely speculated that the “Secret of the Mimic” will shed light on this peculiar character and his role within the broader narrative of the series.

2025’s June lineup is shaping up to be a spine-tingling month for horror game aficionados, brimming with fresh titles to watch out for alongside updates. Additionally, numerous other games in June 2025 are expected to deliver hair-raising moments, such as “Death Stranding 2: On the Beach,” and the frightening experiences will carry over into July with the debut of “Killing Floor 3” and more. In essence, the summer of 2025 is gearing up to offer a rollercoaster ride of chills and excitement for horror gaming enthusiasts.
