If horror loves anything more than slaughtering attractive teens, it's adding numbers onto the end of titles. Sure enough Until Dawn 2 has been discussed in an interview with PlayStation Lifestyle. Supermassive Games executive producer Pete Samuels has revealed that the game surpassed the team's expectations and that some outlets even ran out of copies of the game.
When it comes to a sequel, Samuels admits that it has come up in conversation but is suitably vague about the next project for the studio. "I think that you should expect the team to build on what we’ve done with Until Dawn, whether it’s in horror or in other genres," he says. "We’re already working on one thing that does that, whilst exploring other avenues for our other teams in anticipation of them finishing their current projects."
"We do talk internally about what Until Dawn 2 could be, as it clearly can’t be a sequel in the traditional sense, with the same characters facing the same threat, not least of which because in different stories some or all of them are already dead! We’ve investigated other ways we could do Until Dawn 2 but it probably is a little early to be discussing that."
Well, I don't think it's too early and don't worry, no spoilers incoming. Helpfully, Scream 2 has some handy rules of amputated thumbs that we can apply. Sequels have to have a bigger body count, so lets fire a few more attractive teens up a mountain to be slaughtered. Plus, and this is where it gets exciting, death scenes have to be far more elaborate so think of Until Dawn's choices but bigger, badder and bloodier. Doesn't it just make you feel all fuzzy inside? No? Just me? Oh.
