A killer announcement?
The rumours were true!Until Dawn, Supermassive Games’ breakthroughhorror gamepreviously exclusive to PlayStation 4, is coming to PC in a remastered re-release later this year.
An announcement trailer revealed during Sony’s State of Play showcase today confirmed the report, with UK studio Ballistic Moon working on a remastered Until Dawn said to be “rebuilt and enhanced” from the original.
The brief snippets of footage seen during the trailer certainly look nice, but don’t really give a proper idea of how far those enhancements might go. Until Dawn looked sharp at the time, with its wobbly framerate being the main downside - almost a decade on, you’d hope that might be smoothed out in this upcoming release.
Otherwise, what we see is largely a trailer for the original Until Dawn itself, with Hayden ‘Heroes’ Panettiere’s Sam joined by the likes of Rami Malek in a cast of teens trying to escape a gravelly-voiced killer in the snowy mountains. Whether they survive will be down to your ability to choose the right options and occasionally pass a quicktime event, which will be familiar if you’ve played The Quarry or any of the Dark Pictures games released since.
