AdHoc Studio Joins Firesprite to Co-Develop Until Dawn 2

AdHoc Studio is teaming up with Firesprite to co-develop Until Dawn 2, bringing its signature narrative expertise to the upcoming horror sequel launching on January 28, 2027.

Following the massive breakout success of their episodic adventure game Dispatch last year, AdHoc Studio is officially lending its narrative expertise to a major horror sequel. Recent announcements confirm that AdHoc is co-developing Until Dawn 2 alongside Firesprite, slated for a January 28, 2027 release. For a studio founded by veterans of the classic Telltale adventure formula, stepping into the realm of choice driven horror cinema is a natural fit. Fans of the original 2015 PlayStation 4 classic will remember how player decisions and quick-time events shaped character survival, a design philosophy that aligns closely with AdHoc's recent work.

Trailers for Until Dawn 2 indicate that the sequel will maintain its heavy focus on branching narratives, moral dilemmas, and intense QTE sequences, featuring a brand new cast of characters stranded on a treacherous tropical island. While the upcoming game will feature loose connections to the original story, the inclusion of AdHoc ensures that the dialogue, character interactions, and branching paths will receive the kind of narrative polish players have come to expect from the studio.

Beyond Until Dawn 2, AdHoc is also collaborating with Critical Role on a project set in Exandria, while the Dispatch universe continues to expand into a tabletop RPG and animated series. Although a direct sequel to Dispatch has not been officially announced yet, the studio has plenty on its plate. Circle January 28 on your calendar if you want to see how this narrative powerhouse handles high stakes survival horror.
