Sony A sequel to Until Dawn is in development at Liverpool studio Firesprite, and it's heading to Play Station 5 in 2027. Until Dawn 2 appears to have all the trappings of the original choose-your-own adventure serial killer survival sim, but this time instead of being set on a snowy mountain, everything's going down on a tropical island.
Until Dawn 2 stars a cast of young-adult ghost hunters, all friends except for the random buff guy that no one seems to know. They operate a fledgling paranormal investigation channel and have just signed a deal with a TV network, so they're sent to a remote island to collect (or create) footage. There's your general gallivanting and cavorting amidst the waterfalls and greenery, and then suddenly a masked murderer with a machete slices open someone's torso. The sequel features the series' trademark quick-time events, complete with lethal consequences and plenty of gore, should you choose poorly.
