Until Dawn Reviews
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.
Until Dawn is a remake that does not improve on the original work and does not modernize the game in any way. The only bright spot is the switch to Unreal Engine 5, but the game structure remains old and looks unsuitable for modern audience.

Until Dawn puts player choice above everything else, and for a horror game that's rather unique. But be warned that the game is more interactive movie than game.
Until Dawn is an inconsistent horror game, but it's still a heck of a lot of fun.
Weird, gory and surprisingly moving - Sony's long-delayed slasher tribute is a flawed but memorable step forwards for "interactive movies".
As cheesy horror goes, you've never had it this pretty or entertaining but when it comes to a one off experience, Until Dawn is expensive interactive terror.
One of the more successful interactive movies of recent years, but that's really not saying much given the lack of gameplay and horror thrills.
Supermassive weaves an intriguing and exciting mystery with all the right teen-horror trappings
Until Dawn is a thoughtful game that exploits its tropes and sets up a system of mechanics and branching narrative that make for a chilling, irresistible experience.
Until Dawn isn't a great game, but it's compelling in spite of its huge flaws
A delightfully absurd choose-your-own adventure horror game that encourages multiple playthroughs.
Until Dawn delivers on multiple fronts and it's a welcome addition to any PS4 owner's library.
Due to its thrilling nature, wide cast, and focus on choice, it's one of the few adventure games we could even recommend for parties. It's more fun than we expected, and we can't wait to relive the night with our own group of friends.
I'm sure it won't be for everyone, but if you enjoy horror movies like Scream and want to experience the genre with some agency in the story's outcome, Until Dawn is a great choice. I give the game a resounding Buy on my Buy/Hold/Sell scale. It's like no other game out there.
Until Dawn kept me intrigued from start to finish. I came for the campy teen horror movie feel and left extremely impressed with how well rounded and influential an experience Supermassive Games delivered. This is a game that you'll be talking to your friends and colleagues about for years to come as you'll find no two experiences are alike no matter how hard you try.
Until Dawn is entertaining in all the ways it needs to be, even if it isn't perfect in all the ways I'd like it to be. Try it, or wait for a discount.
Until Dawn is gripping through its nine-odd hour running time and never lets off the gas. It's scary — although sometimes cheaply so — and does a great job illustrating the butterfly effect. What Supermassive has accomplished so early in their tenure is impressive and something all horror fans should experience.
Until Dawn is a B-movie delight for horror fans, thanks to creative narrative mechanics and excellent production values.
If you like Quantic Dream's games and think the idea of that style mixed with an "I Know What You Did Last Summer" or "Scary Movie" style narrative would be good, you're probably going to really dig it.
If you fancy a gory treat that hits plenty of high notes, Until Dawn is highly recommended.
