A remake of Supermassive Games’ Until Dawn was released for PlayStation  and PC last Friday. And those who beat the game over the weekend, myself included, have discovered post-credit scenes that heavily tease a sequel.

The climax of the PS4 original sees Rami Malek’s Josh get killed or turned into a Windego, depending on the player’s choices. Meanwhile, characters such as Hayden Panettiere’s Sam can survive if players are able to outsmart attacking Windegos. Until Dawn’s PS5 remake adds on to those endings in two post-credit scenes that appear depending on the player’s choices. You can can watch them below.

If players show remorse as Josh in an earlier dialogue exchange and he survives, a new post-credit scene shows Josh survived the attack. He hears the voice of Dr. Hill in his head still, who says that he hopes Josh can find redemption. If Sam survives, there’s a lengthier post-credit scene featuring new motion capture and dialogue from Panettiere. It takes place several years later in Los Angeles and shows that Sam has medicated herself to get over the events of Until Dawn. She wakes up to find that a scar on her arm is bleeding, then hears banging on her door and someone calling out her name.

This isn’t an implied death like the end of I Know What You Did Last Summer, but instead, it seems to be a tease that Sam’s story will continue in some way. Sony has not announced a sequel to Until Dawn yet, but these scenes heavily suggest that one is on the cards and that Panettiere and Malek could return. It also wouldn’t be surprising because an Until Dawn film will be released soon.

Until Dawn’s remake is available now for PS5 and PC.

When Sony took the stage at CES 2023, PlayStation fans didn’t know what to expect. The company had a history of using the tech expo to showcase new gaming hardware, like the PlayStation VR2, but its plans for the show aren’t ones that tend to leak beforehand. Left in the dark, eager PlayStation fans tuned in to the CES live broadcast to see what the future of PlayStation might hold.

But nobody expected a UFO to touch down on stage.

Until Dawn remake’s flashy new trailer shows its Unreal Engine 5 upgrade
A villain in a clown mask stares menacingly in Until Dawn.

PlayStation's Until Dawn remake will launch this fall for PlayStation 5 and PC. The news was revealed on today's Sony State of Play stream, which featured a new trailer for the project that showed off its modernized visuals created in Unreal Engine 5.

Until Dawn is a PlayStation 4 horror game from developer Supermassive Games, the team behind recent titles like The Quarry. Released in 2015, it kick-started the studio's "interactive horror" style, which puts players at the center of a playable slasher film. A remake was announced in January with a 2024 release window. Now, we roughly know when to expect it, though we don't have an exact release date.

3 underrated PS Plus games you should play this weekend (May 3-5)
The main character of Tales of Kenzera: Zau stands with two elemental items.

PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra have been around for almost two years, and during that time the subscription service has established itself as an ample competitor to Xbox Game Pass. That means there is a wealth of great games for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 owners to check out if they're looking for something to play this weekend. I think PS Plus subscribers should be looking toward some of the more underrated games in the subscription service this weekend too.

I have three particular picks in mind. The first is an enjoyable Metroidvania that came to PS Plus' game catalog when it launched just a couple of weeks ago and deserves a lot more attention than it's getting. After that, there's an action-platformer that pays homage to series like Ninja Gaiden that you should check out before it leaves the catalog. Finally, there's a PS2-era Star Wars game that fills the niche a recently canceled game would have.
