LMFAO 60$ in 2025 for a game from 2015... even 40$ is way to expensive for this. 19.99$ is a fair price for this old remastered turd.

Until Dawn is one of the best video game and horror experiences i have ever experienced. I love the story it tells and its use of the butterfly effect meaning every choice you make in the game has consequences that could lead to theirs or another characters deaths.

without going into spoilers, the game tells the story of a group of people returning to a mountain lodge 1 year after a tragic accident and then finding themselves having to try and survive Until Dawn.

The game does an amazing job with the world building of the mountain with the history of the mines that are on the mountain, its history with the Washington family and the native american culture and history. The game also gives amazing set peices to go along with it and looks beautiful.

The characters are also really well done too and include some actors such as such as Rami Malek, Hayden Panettiere, Nichole Sakura, Bret Dalton and Peter Stormare.

This however is a remaster of the original Until Dawn on the PS4 and some changes were made. changes that im not particularly a huge fan of.
First the opening song 'Out of the Shadows' and credits that happen after the prologue are nowhere near as good as 'Oh Death' from the original.

Second. The game adds sunlight at the start of the game when everyone is going up the mountain to meet up. Its nothing big, just a nitpick but i personally liked the lack of sunlight in the original.

Third. This game expects you to be playing with a Playstation controller. The button layout is the playstation one with Circle, Square, X and Triangle. which can mess you up with that X if you aren't careful. Also one of the biggest aspects is the games moments where you have to stay still. If you are using a Playstation controller, you would have motion control and it would be tense moments, but since i don't have one and have a plug in controller, Meaning i could move the controller as much as i want and i would still pass the 'dont move' moments. Which sucks because i do like the tense-ness of those moments even if it does kill someone for failing it.

Overall this was a good port of one of my favourite story games ever. I didn't have any performance issues at all. I just think there was a few changes that bring it down compared to the original and for the best experience, you would have to spend an extra £60-£70 for a Playstation 5 controller when they could have just worked around the 'Don't move' section with something else like skill checks and gave us more controller button layouts. However that didn't stop me form enjoying this amazing game and its amazing story.

8.5/10

Was a fun game from what I played but several times it softlocked making progression impossible unless I quit and reloaded my save. I eventually got softlocked so bad I was unable to even progress unless I did a fresh save. Unpolished nonsense just get a diff game and save yourself the headache.
