Does Until Dawn remaster’s new ending confirm Until Dawn 2?

The Until Dawn remaster has a new ending, and it carries big implications that may hint at an Until Dawn 2.

In an era of games dominated by indie horror, Until Dawn showcases that AAA games can still stand toe-to-toe in the scares department. With the famous butterfly effect system, Until Dawn was a classic slasher flick that came to life in a new way. Fans still consider the horror title the best in Supermassive Games’ library.

When Sony announced a remaster a decade later, fans got hyped again. Some even began speculating it could lead to a proper sequel in the future. As the Until Dawn remaster approaches release, leakers revealed exciting news about Until Dawn 2.

Until Dawn adds post-credit scene that teases a sequel

The Until Dawn remaster’s new post-credits scene heavily teases an Until Dawn 2.

A Redditor leaked the new ending of Until Dawn, which has major implications for the sequel. Although the method to get this ending remains unknown, Josh can now survive up to the end in Until Dawn: Remastered. He continues to live with his trauma but is now implied to be seeking redemption.

Meanwhile, Sam has begun to take heavy medication to deal with the trauma of the first game. She wakes up with a mysterious scar as an ominous voice whispers her name. Notably, Hayden Panettiere, who plays Sam, recorded unique lines and mocap for the remaster, which lines up with the new ending. These major story hooks make fans believe a sequel is in development.

Alongside this have been reports on possible horror games from other PlayStation Studios teams.

Sony’s UK studio Firesprite ran job listings calling for applicants to work on a “dark narrative adventure game with a branching storyline and genre-defining ambition.” The project is reportedly codenamed “Project Heartbreak.” The game features a female protagonist on an island in modern times, which could very well be Until Dawn’s Sam.

On Reddit, Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier stated Heartbreak was not necessarily a new IP. The new possible endings add even more fuel to the idea of an Until Dawn 2.

However, some have mixed feelings. Without Supermassive Games at the helm, fans wonder how the developers must have felt about the sequel to their biggest success getting a sequel without their input. Regardless, fans eagerly await what’s next in the Until Dawn saga.
