Until Dawn 2 is confirmed to remain a purely single-player experience, scheduled to launch on PS5 on January 28, 2027, priced at $50. The new title will feature a self-contained story with an entirely new cast of main characters, while retaining core mechanics such as choice-driven consequences, the possibility of any character dying, and multiple endings.
The story revolves around the ghost-hunting team Dead True. While the team members haven't always been truthful about their alleged supernatural encounters in the past, what begins as potentially staged horror turns into a real threat after they travel to a remote island to film a new project. Players' decisions will determine the fate of each expedition member, and Dr. Hill from the previous game will also make an appearance.
Developed by Firesprite, the game also features narrative contributions from AdHoc Studio, the developers behind The Superhero Dispatch Center. Unlike some interactive horror titles that gradually introduce co-op modes, Until Dawn 2 remains a strictly single-player game.
The PS5 version supports 4K visuals, DualSense haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, and provides 3D spatial audio, while leveraging the SSD to reduce loading times. Currently, only the PS5 version has been officially announced, with plans for PC and other platforms yet to be confirmed.
