Until Dawn (2024) Reviews
Until Dawn remains a fantastic horror experience that should find a whole new audience to appreciate it, but with no upgrade, this remake is an expensive sell for returning players.
By finishing the Remake and immediately revisiting the classic, it became even more difficult to understand the purpose of the new version. It's hard to find a justification for recreating such a recent game. Even more so when the original version is as good as, if not better (in some aspects), than the new game. Until Dawn is good and worth playing, it's just not worth the investment of full price, when the classic edition is still competent.

Until Dawn is recommended for those who enjoy tension-filled interactive narratives and decisions that affect the fate of the characters. Its enhanced visuals, new cinematics and immersion enhanced by DualSense haptic feedback make it a unique experience, ideal for fans of horror and replayability.

Until Dawn, one of PlayStation's most important horror titles, has finally arrived on PC. Unfortunately, performance issues and disappearing characters take away from the game's charm.

Technical issues and lack of a substantial upgrade aside, Until Dawn remains the perfect interactive horror movie.
Until Dawn is an overpriced and under-featured remake that seems less like a must-have bit of moonlit murder and something closer to a case of daylight robbery.
The 2024 Until Dawn remake is a great time, but it doesn't do enough to justify its steep price tag compared to the 2015 original.
Ballistic Moon has done a pretty good job with its take on Until Dawn, with improved camera angles, gorgeous visuals, and new scenes.
Until Dawn returns taking advantage of all the muscle of PS5 and current PCs. A horror game that we fell in love with in 2015 and now, almost 10 years later, still works just as well. Eight playable characters, many mysteries to discover and a story that branches according to our decisions are still the basis of a proposal that exploits the theory of chaos and the butterfly effect to the fullest. Some old mistakes come back with all the goodies and many improvements to create the best version of the game that we can play today

Until Dawn remains a fantastic horror game with great acting and plenty of jump scares to get you out of your seat. While not essential for anyone that enjoyed the original game, this remake brings it to a new audience and is a solid update to what was already a great game.
There was no need for a remake of Until Dawn, especially at this price. However, the graphical upgrade is undeniable, and the new free camera allows for greater exploration.

The update of Until Dawn for PS5 and PC is not a bad game: it shines visually, despite flaws such as exaggerated gestures, firecrackers or not exceeding 30 fps, leaving a more realistic visual feast than on PS4. Too bad that the price is not tighter, like that of other remakes or remasters, because the perception of many players would change.

Finding the right "number" for Until Dawn Remake is a complex balancing act. On the one hand we have an adventure that works and is entertaining, on the other a re-release that raises eyebrows quite a bit. Taking into account the quality of the work it is im-possible to go below the sufficiency, but it is equally impossible to go higher, considering that the original version costs less than a third and, in terms of gaming experience, does not have any sub-stantial difference.

Until Dawn drags a contemporary classic into a new generation, and its interactive teen slasher silliness more than holds up today. With vastly enhanced graphics and minor gameplay upgrades, this is still a highly recommended game. The problem is it costs three times as much as its nine-year-old predecessor, and doesn't have an upgrade path. For all of its grisly glamour, that makes this remake a tough sell – especially when it runs at half the frame rate of its predecessor when played using PS5 backwards compatibility.
If you've never played Until Dawn, go for it ! Even if the price tag is still a bit high considering the changes. It's still one of the most beloved horror production, even after ten years, and his deserves his fame. It's, by far, the most good looking version available (PS5, PC) with huge improvements. If you've ever been on that ghost train, which successfully exploits the slasher genre, wait for a price drop. A pleasant remaster, yes, but not a complete remake.

Until Dawn 2024 has some welcome improvements to gameplay, audio, and is packed with visual polish. But it fails to capture the original's campy charm and distinct visual identity.
The Until Dawn remake is a bit of a mixed bag overall. While it breathes new life into a beloved horror classic, offering a revamped experience, it also loses sight of some of what made the original so special. It's a splendid upgrade in some areas and a massive downgrade in others. Find out for yourself if you can stomach the horrific asking price.
Until Dawn Remake is a painful reminder that change isn’t always good. A poor totem system, bad performance and clunky controls really hold it back from joining other great remakes of late.
Though it's hard not to see the validity of criticisms over its pricing and and questions over whether it even needed to be made, the Until Dawn remake is ultimately a solid and enhanced new version of a modern horror classic.
