Until Dawn 2 Locks In January Release Date With New Trailer

Until Dawn 2 is officially launching on PS5 this January, bringing back high stakes branching narratives and gruesome new ways to watch your characters meet their ends.

During the latest PlayStation State of Play broadcast, developer Firesprite pulled back the curtain on Until Dawn 2 with a fresh trailer confirming a January 28 release date on PS5. Fans got another look at the franchise signature branching narrative, where every split second choice can spell doom for the main cast. Pre-orders kick off on September 10, bringing extra cosmetic incentives like classic franchise outfits, an Akishima Island holiday look, and collectible Dr. Hill bobbleheads hidden throughout the game.

Players looking to lean further into the horror can opt for the deluxe edition, which includes Y2K inspired character outfits and a Diaramoa of Death feature. This addition lets players replay and inspect every grisly demise through dedicated vignettes and unique camera angles. It is a nice touch for a community that loves dissecting and streaming every possible failure state.

This surprise release window gives the PS5 a massive early win for next year. With Until Dawn 2 arriving in January and God of War Laufey following less than a month later, Sony is stacking the early months of the calendar. IGN recently reported on these State of Play updates, highlighting just how packed the upcoming release schedule is shaping up to be for console players.
