Though we saw a piece of it during The Game Awards 2014, Sony and Supermassive Games have released over seven minutes of gameplay footage from their upcoming horror title Until Dawn featuring Hayden Panettiere (“Nashville,” “Heroes”) as Sam.
Set at an isolated mountain lodge where nothing is as it seems, eight friends try to stay alive with a killer on the loose. Players define the relationships between the characters through dialogue and experience the night from their unique point of view. Written in collaboration with famed horror writers and directors Larry Fessenden and Graham Reznick, find out who will survive Until Dawn.
Harnessing the power of an evolved Killzone Shadowfall engine, this 3rd person interactivehorror will shock and horrify players thanks to its realistic graphics and edge of your seat gameplay as they navigate their way through a terrifying night. The DualShock 4 motion sensor functionality will track how still you can be whilst in hiding from Until Dawn’s fearsome terrors and the camera will capture player scares as they happen to share with friends. Players carve their path to survival with branching story lines which mean that no two stories will be the same. Decisions, big and small, will shape each player’s unique story. Inspired by the chaos theory, the butterfly effect could make trivial split-second decisions ripple into moments of grave peril.
Until Dawn will debut exclusively for the PlayStation 4 in 2015.
