Summary
- Firesprite Games, not Supermassive, develops Until Dawn 2.
- New ghost hunters chase viral fame on a haunted island.
- The game is set for a 2027 release on PS5.
A new chapter in the Until Dawn legacy is emerging, with Firesprite Games taking the helm for Until Dawn 2. This narrative horror title, anticipated as a spiritual successor, marks a significant shift as Supermassive Games, the original creators, are not involved in its development. Firesprite, known for titles like The Persistence, is now tasked with continuing the series' focus on player choice and impactful consequences.
The upcoming game centers on a team of ambitious ghost hunters venturing to an abandoned island. Their goal is to capture content for their next viral hit, but they soon encounter a terrifying reality far darker than anticipated. The narrative promises to weave a chilling tale where the island's haunting begins to manifest, directly threatening the hunters' survival.
Players will once again face critical decisions that determine the fate of the main characters. The premise emphasizes that survival will demand more than just a strong internet signal, with the lives of the ghost hunters resting in the player's hands. Until Dawn 2 is currently in development and is scheduled to launch in 2027 for the PlayStation 5.
One of the main characters is visibly portrayed by Neil Newbon, the acclaimed voice actor behind Astarion in Baldur's Gate 3, whose likeness is incorporated into the character design.
