News Until Dawn PS5, PC Will Boast Fresh Locations and an All-New Camera
More than a remaster
Until Dawn’s announcement for PS5 and PC has confused many, because despite being a decade old, the original Supermassive Games story is still very playable on PS4. Sony obviously has big plans for the franchise because it’s working on a movie adaptation, which will be directed by Lights Out’s David F. Sandberg. But this...

Movie also on the way
It’s arguably one of the best examples of the branching narrative genre, and with a movie around the corner, Until Dawn is getting freshened up for PS5 and PC later this year.

News Until Dawn PS4 Improvements Are Unfortunately Wishful Thinking
Game hasn't been patched in years
There are some reports swirling that Until Dawn’s loading times, like The Last of Us Remastered, have been improved on the PlayStation 4. This all started with a post on Twitter, but it’s since been upvoted on
Mourning woods
Republished on Wednesday, 28th June 2017: We're bringing this review back from the archives following the announcement of July 2017's PlayStation Plus lineup. The original text follows. Until Dawn is much better than you may be expecting. The teen horror title – which was originally intended as a PlayStation Move...
News This Is What Until Dawn Looked Like on the PS3
Move aside
Some of you will remember, but for those who don't, Supermassive Games' schlocky horror Until Dawn was originally in development for the PlayStation 3 – and, primarily, the PlayStation Move motion controller. It was planned to be an exclusive for Sony's illuminating wand, with the gameplay built around the 3D tracking of the...
News Ride in Until Dawn: Rush of Blood's Rollercoaster of Death
Clown head
B*Witched and the Red Hot Chili Peppers may have sang about rollercoasters of love, but PlayStation VR exclusive Until Dawn: Rush of Blood's ghost train is a little rickety for romance. PlayStation Access has uploaded a pretty funny video of them checking out Supermassive Games' rails shooter, which includes ample screaming and...
News Is an Until Dawn Sequel Unlikely Now?
Supermassive Games eyeing multiformat move
We'd always assumed, following the surprise commercial success of Until Dawn, that Sony would have signed up a sequel straight away – but it sounds like developer Supermassive Games has other plans. Despite being one of the Japanese giant's closer partners, the developer has expressed interest in breaking...
News Until Dawn: Rush of Blood Takes You on a Repulsive Roller-Coaster Ride
PlayStation VR frightfest scores new screens
Well, it's not the Until Dawn sequel that we were all hoping for, but as fans of the fledgling franchise, we hope that forthcoming PlayStation VR spin-off Until Dawn: Rush of Blood delivers to the degree that it doesn't sully the burgeoning brand. To coincide with last night's press conference, Sony has...
News Watch One of the Stars of Until Dawn Play, Er, Until Dawn
Dalton tries not to die
Until Dawn has been one of 2015's biggest sleeper hits, and has proved particularly popular on sites like Twitch. While it's been fun seeing how random people react to the title's many jump scares, though, IGN has managed to convince star Brett Dalton (Mike) to play through a chunk of it on YouTube – and this is the first...
News Until Dawn's Free Hallowe'en PS4 Theme Is Worth Downloading
Clock's ticking
It's been a disappointing week for Until Dawn fans. Supermassive Games announced a woeful looking rails shooter spin-off earlier in the week, while Sony's second marketing push has amounted to a new trailer and a free PlayStation 4 theme. There is, at least, one silver lining, though: the animated wallpaper is one of the better ones...
Paris Games Week 2015 Until Dawn: Rush of Blood Takes You on a Virtual Reality Roller Coaster
A bit like the B*Witched song
You'll rarely find this editor getting angry over game announcements, but Until Dawn: Rush of Blood is one rumour that your humble host was hoping wouldn't come true. The forthcoming PlayStation VR exclusive is a rails shooter in the most literal sense, taking you on a warped roller coaster inside the mind of one Until...
Rumour Until Dawn Goes On-Rails for PlayStation VR DLC
More like off the rails, right?
Until Dawn is one of the best games of the year because of its intentionally crumby plot and ham acting – so we're not sure how we feel about the game getting a PlayStation VR powered side story. Apparently that's exactly what Supermassive Games is working on, though, as a Destructoid tip-off has hinted that a...
News How Many Hours Until Dawn 2 Is Announced for PS4?
Supermassive already discussing sequel
There are times here at Push Square Towers where we question whether we should stick with certain headlines, but this one's so terrible that your humble host's going to use it. Anyway, enough editorial internalising: Supermassive Games has hinted in an interview with PlayStation Lifestyle that it's already...
News Sony Admits PS4 Exclusive Until Dawn Was a Sleeper Hit
Slasher success
There's a bit of revisionist history going on with Until Dawn at the moment. The game has been hugely successful for Sony – both critically and commercially – but with a bit more marketing there's no doubt that it could have been an even bigger success. As such, armchair analysts believe that the platform holder missed a trick...

News Japan's Censored Until Dawn's Most Grisly Scenes in the Worst Way
Fade to black
Until Dawn doesn't go totally SAW, but it does have a little fun with a saw blade at one point. Sadly, those playing the slasher in Japan will not get to see all of the gore, as the game has been censored in arguably the worst way imaginable. In the sequence involving entrails and other viscera, the Eastern version simply cuts to...
News Sony's Stopping Twitch Streamers from Archiving Until Dawn
Nightmare
We're not entirely sure how we feel about this one. A tweet by Twitch Support appears to allude to the fact that Sony has disabled archiving on Until Dawn, preventing people from replaying streams that have since concluded. This could be a simple error on the platform holder's part, but it seems like a calculated decision to stop the story...
News Scream Like You Mean It with Until Dawn's Launch Trailer
Argh
The shock success of Until Dawn appears to have taken even Sony by surprise, as it scrambles to put out trailers and prepare bundles for what's turned out one of the better exclusives on the PlayStation 4. Given the critical mauling that The Order: 1886 received, we can understand why it was sceptical of this one – but at least it can give it...
Gamescom 2015 Cause and Effect Is at the Crux of This Until Dawn Trailer
Like a butterfly
The butterfly effect is a funny thing. Earlier in the year, Sony executives sat in an office and decided to skip Gamescom 2015, blissfully unaware of the fact that we'd be subjected to a busy but still boring week. Until Dawn deals with these decisions in a different way, as you're pursued by a serial killer who looks like the star...

Fright night
Roses are red, violets are blue; Until Dawn will whisk you away to a cabin in the woods – but there'll be no time to get nude.

First Impressions PS4 Teen Horror Until Dawn Is So Bad That It's Scarily Good
#Dead
David Cage makes games that aren’t supposed to be funny, but sometimes wander into the realm of comedy anyway. The Parisian auteur, who’s perhaps best known for PlayStation 3 exclusive Heavy Rain, tends to discuss Quantic Dream’s ‘emotional’ output in a very self-serious manner – and yet, scenes such as ‘Jason, Jason’ often...
Gamescom 2014 Cringe Through Over 20 Minutes of PS4 Exclusive Until Dawn
Avoid if you've got a heart condition

Gamescom 2014 Sony to Reveal How Horror Is Being Reinvented on PS4
Until we meet again
It seems like there’s still time prior to Sony’s Gamescom 2014 press conference for another one of those horror themed teaser trailers.

News Snow Joke! Sony Seemingly Teases Until Dawn PS4 Re-Reveal for GamesCom
Arms get cold in February air
Until Dawn became the poster child for Sony’s ill-fated PlayStation Move motion controller when it was first announced, which just goes to show how long the teen horror title has spent in hiding since being unveiled. As suspected, a leaked GamesCom 2014 lineup last week confirmed the release for the PlayStation 4 –...

As a member of the microscopic group that earnestly enjoyed their time with the ill-fated PlayStation Move peripheral, this editor was extremely excited for Until Dawn when it was announced at GamesCom 2012 a couple of years ago.

Rumour Is Teen Horror Until Dawn About to Strip Down on PS4?
Sony revives PlayStation Move fear fest
Horror games may be dime a dozen right now, but Supermassive Games’ ex-PlayStation 3 exclusive Until Dawn never sounded like your average scare-‘em-up.
