Sorry, Until Dawn fans, but the characters you know and love seemingly won't be in the upcoming live-action film adaptation.
]]>When I started writing up my shortlist of 2024 GOTY candidates earlier this autumn – in an attempt to sort through a messy mixture of widely-agreed-upon hits I still needed to play and total heart picks I intended to go to bat for – The Casting of Frank Stone easily cleared my personal top 10, quite clearly in the latter category.
]]>Sony has picked a release date for its live-action Until Dawn film, and it's picked the incredibly scary month of… April!
]]>If you're hoping for an Until Dawn sequel, you might be in luck, as a couple of its cast members seemingly suggested a follow-up is on the way.
]]>The major selling point of Until Dawn is that any of the eight main characters can live or die depending on the choices the player makes. It's a game designed to incentivise multiple playthroughs through its branching storylines, with collectibles and trophies that can only be obtained by ensuring certain characters are alive (or dead) by particular points in the story.
]]>2024's Until Dawn may be more of a remaster than a remake of the 2015 original, but there are still a few new outcomes that diligent fans will no doubt be eager to dig out and see for themselves. In particular, two brand-new post-credits scenes hint at new or expanded endings for a couple of the game's protagonists.
]]>I feel like I need to begin this review by clarifying what exactly 2024's Until Dawn is and what you should — and shouldn't — expect from it. We all know it's a re-release of the now-classic 2015 branching-narrative horror-adventure game developed by Supermassive as an exclusive for the PS4, sure. But is it a remake or a remaster? PlayStation Publishing has been surprisingly resistant to labelling it as either, and it's a confusion that surely hasn't helped to manage any expectations, especially among fans of the original.
]]>Little Nightmares has some of the most realistic monsters in gaming.
]]>The Casting of Frank Stone is the ultimate narrative-based adventure for fans of the Dead by Daylight franchise, or those who can’t get enough of Supermassive Games’ horrific endeavours. It wears its influences on its sleeve and isn’t afraid to have fun, as Supermassive’s past projects — Until Dawn, The Quarry, The Dark Pictures Anthology — have shown us already.
]]>Oh dear, while the Until Dawn remake isn't due out until October, it appears that there's already been layoffs at its developer Ballistic Moon.
]]>I'm not sure if it's my advancing age or the literal pandemic that arrived hot on the heels of this game's release, shattering (perhaps permanently) our collective ability to accurately perceive the passage of time, but I really can't believe that The Dark Pictures Anthology has been around for half a decade already. Man of Medan still feels like a new-ish game to me, so the realisation that today marks the fifth anniversary of its release is a sobering one.
]]>Even the briefest glance at promotional materials for The Casting of Frank Stone reveals that it is a story "from the world of Dead by Daylight". Nowhere is this more apparent than on the title screen of the game itself, where the franchise's name is up there equally as big and bold as the game's actual title.
]]>If you've been dying to check out the Until Dawn remake, there's good news: it finally has a release date, along with a trailer showing you its changes.
]]>The live-action adaptation of Until Dawn has started the casting process, with several up-and-comers joining the project.
]]>During today’s PlayStation State of Play (May 30, 2024), fans of Supermassive Games narrative-based endeavors got a closer look at the Until Dawn remake, alongside a release date of fall 2024. The game will be coming to PS5 and PC on release.
]]>Dead by Daylight is getting another year of cool content with six updates on the docket including chapters for Dungeons & Dragons and Castlevania set for later in the year along with the long-awaited 2v8 Mode.
]]>Supermassive Games, the developer of horror hits Until Dawn and The Quarry, is reportedly planning to lay off 90 workers, with 150 having been informed that they’re at risk of redundancy.
]]>In an unexpected turn of events, Until Dawn - the 2015 narrative horror game from Supermassive Games - is being remastered for modern devices. Revealed during tonight's State of Play (January 31), the interactive horror game will be arriving on PC and PS5 soon, rebuilt and enhanced.
]]>Shazam! director David F. Sandberg is returning to his horror roots with an adaptation of PlayStation's 2015 horror hit Until Dawn. The problem? The original game already was an interactive movie.
]]>Until Dawn developer Supermassive Games has finally revealed its single-player Dead by Daylight game at The Game Awards tonight: The Casting of Frank Stone. It is expected to release in 2024.
]]>Another month, another set of PlayStation Plus leaks, this time for the titles that you'll be able to play at the Extra tier.
]]>Have you been wondering about the future of Little Nightmares? After the gut-wrenching conclusion of Little Nightmares 2 in 2021, it’s been all that some of us can think about.
]]>The best story-based games are ageless. While gameplay can become clunky with the passing of time, an enthralling narrative is just as gripping whether it came out in 2004 or 2024.
]]>Supermassive Games has another horror title in the works, and it's a single-player game based in Behaviour Interactive's Dead by Daylight universe.
]]>Nvidia has announced the latest round of games added to its GeForce Now streaming service.
]]>I checked my watch’s heart rate data immediately after coming off a session of Switchback VR. 126. That’s not exercise territory, but it’s the highest it got that day and far above the resting rate. When your heart rate rises like this, it feels completely different to physical activity. You know it’s not normal. In the enclosed VR environment combined with the kind of stomach churns you’d expect at a theme park, I genuinely had to take a break for fear I’d keel over. Switchback VR is simply too scary for me to take in anything other than short bursts.
]]>There is a massive selection of brilliant games available on PlayStation Plus, for both those with the trusty PlayStation 4 or a brand new PlayStation 5.
]]>The Devil in Me marks the fourth instalment in Supermassive Games’ The Dark Pictures Anthology, the finale of the anthology’s first season. You’d expect The Devil in Me to go out with some sort of bang, then, right? Sadly, this lacklustre dénouement lets itself down with performance issues, a severe lack of quality, and limited immersion (which is often essential to this series of games being as gripping as they are).
]]>Unless it involves The Sims 5, leaks in all shape or form simply suck. That said, someone has leaked the teaser trailer for the next instalment in The Dark Pictures Anthology, Directive 8020 ahead of the launch of The Devil in Me, which is tomorrow (November 18).
]]>The Dark Pictures Anthology kicked off in 2019 with Man of Medan. Once everyone had already been scared senseless by sea pirates and something much darker, Little Hope followed, inviting players into the equally atmospheric setting of a deserted town.
]]>Speaking with VGC, studio director at Supermassive Games Will Byles disclosed that the studio's next big horror title is already in development.
]]>When a group of keen filmmakers is adamant on securing the second season of their true-crime show, the finale of their first season needs to go out with a bang. The issue, however, is that they’re creatively bankrupt, until a mysterious architect approaches them with an irresistible offer. The Devil in Me, releasing this autumn from Supermassive Games, follows the crew as they investigate the crimes of notorious serial killer, H. H. Holmes, over a century later.
]]>The horror title where you dictate the story, The Quarry, has a new free trial available on both Steam and Xbox. For those who have yet to try out one of Supermassive Games' many narrative adventures, this free trial is a great place to start (if not with Man of Medan, which is available free on PS Plus right now).
]]>Supermassive Games, developer of iconic horror titles such as Until Dawn and The Dark Pictures Anthology, has been acquired by Nordisk Games.
]]>The Devil in Me, part of Supermassive Games' stand-alone series of cinematic horror titles, The Dark Pictures Anthology, will be released this fall.
]]>The Quarry is the slasher of the summer, but with a twist. In this horror shindig, you're the one in charge of who lives, who dies, and how many secrets are unveiled.
]]>The Quarry, spiritual successor to 2015 horror hit Until Dawn, is an absolute blast. It lives up to the legacy its predecessor left behind and offers players and '80s infused gore fest with a surprising amount of replayability. A lot of this replayability is helped along with multiplayer, especially the later introduced online Wolf Pack mode.
]]>The Quarry is the spiritual successor to Until Dawn of 2015, and while that's a lot to live up to, we talk in our review about exactly how The Quarry doesn't disappoint. These summer lovin' teens are in for a surprise when things inevitably go wrong at Hackett's Quarry. Better yet, Supermassive Games has released a huge update for the title, so now you need not venture The Quarry alone.
]]>The Dark Pictures Anthology is full of gory twists and turns, and Man of Medan is no exception. The horror title plays out almost like an interactive movie, and it’s your responsibility to save the crew and keep everyone alive… or kill them off. The choice is entirely yours, and that’s the magic (but also the catch) of these games.
]]>According to a new report, Supermassive Games' latest title The Quarry was almost a Google Stadia exclusive.
]]>Ah, Hackett's Quarry. A summer camp for kids to rejoice and for teens to ditch social media, except this year, things have taken a slight turn for the worse at The Quarry. After the kids have gone home and the camp counsellors car breaks, there's no choice but to stay another night. This wouldn't be so bad if danger wasn't imminent as soon as the sun went down.
]]>The Quarry is the latest interactive horror game from Supermassive Games, creators of Until Dawn and The Dark Pictures Anthology. As the spiritual successor to Until Dawn, The Quarry follows a similar narrative structure: a bunch of teens are left to fend for themselves in a remote, desolate place, while something - or someone - hunts them during the dead of night.
]]>A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to preview The Quarry and share my thoughts on the beginning portion of the game. After having a tonne of fun with it, I rather boldly claimed that The Quarry could be Supermassive Games’ best title since Until Dawn, the studio's first major release back in 2015.
]]>If you’re not sure whether you know of The Quarry or not, it’s that narrative-driven horror game with 186 endings from Supermassive Games that you’ve been hearing about. Supermassive Games is renowned for its cinematic, psychological tales that put you in the shoes of each character, while also somewhat giving you the privilege of being the director.
]]>The Quarry director Will Byles recently explained how the upcoming slasher-inspired horror game's Death Rewind mechanic will work.
]]>The Quarry, the upcoming narrative horror game from Supermassive Games, will have multiple endings. And when we say multiple, well, we really mean 186.
]]>If you’re looking to scare yourself silly with some of the best horror games of all time, then you’re in the right place. Halloween has been and gone, but it's always an appropriate time to get cosy and play something spine-tingling. Whether you’re looking to lose sleep for fear of what lurks in the shadows, or you simply want some fear-fuelled laughs, there are an abundance of tremendously terrifying video games out there to try.
]]>2K and Supermassive Games have announced The Quarry, a new horror narrative game where your every choice, big or small, shapes your story and determines who will live and who will die.
]]>If you've been a dilligent follower of Supermassive Entertainment's horror anthology, The Dark Pictures, you'll likley know that we're getting closer to the end of the series' first season.
