Alien: Isolation

Perhaps the first Alien title in a while to make proper use of HR Giger's nightmarish creation, Alien: Isolation has its feet planted firmly in survival horror territory. Players control Ellen Ripley's daughter as she investigates a massive space station in search of clues to what could have happened to her mother. An abosultely terrifying experience, made all the more tense since the titular creature can't be killed and the player's only recourse when spotted is to run and hide... and quite possibly pray.
