by Jason Dietz, Metacritic Features Editor – December 17, 2020

Above are the lowest-scoring games released for any platform between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020. Games are ranked by Metascore (as of December 15, 2020) prior to rounding, and any titles with fewer than 7 reviews from professional critics are excluded. If a single title would have landed on the list multiple times due to low scores on more than one platform, we only included the lowest-scoring version.

33 #3: Dawn of Fear (PS4)

Modeled after 1990s-era Resident Evil games, Brok3nsite's survival horror game was plagued by technical issues and a generic design.

“Dawn of Fear tries to bring back the nostalgia of classic survival horror but fails in almost every way. The poor controls lead to most of its problems and a lack of necessary mechanics creates problems that shouldn't exist in this day and age from the simplest of games." —PlayStation Universe
