First look: 'Until Dawn' hits PS5 and PC

The gaming community is buzzing with the recent announcement of the PS5 and PC versions of the popular horror game Until Dawn, first revealed at the State of Play broadcast. Expectations are high for the re-release since the game originally launched back in 2015 and was praised for its choice-driven narrative and star-studded cast featuring Rami Malek, Hayden Panettiere, and Peter Stormare. Fans of the genre are eager to experience the updated graphics and potentially new content on more advanced gaming systems. The announcement is even more timely as Until Dawn is getting a film adaptation directed by David F. Sandberg, known for his work on the Shazam movies and other horror titles like Lights Out and Annabelle: Creation. The release date for the re-release of Until Dawn has not been specified but it is confirmed to be within this year.

The release date has not been specifically stated, however, it is confirmed that Until Dawn will be coming to PlayStation 5 and PC sometime this year.

Until Dawn, developed by Supermassive Games, is an interactive horror adventure that revolutionized narrative-driven gaming by integrating 'butterfly effect' mechanics where every choice can lead to diverging paths and multiple endings. This became a foundational gameplay experience that Supermassive built upon in subsequent projects like The Quarry and The Dark Pictures Anthology. With its cinematic presentation and voice acting from well-known actors, Until Dawn garnered a cult following and proved to be a milestone in horror gaming that influences the genre even today.
