Sony Computer Entertainment and Supermassive Games have released a new trailer for Until Dawn in honor of Valentines Day tomorrow.
The PlayStation 4 game sees a group of eight friends on their annual mountain getaway, which quickly turns to terror. But before that happens, you’ll get to know each character and understand the relationships between them.
Here’s a bit more from executive producer Pete Samuels:
When you start the game you will meet the characters as they couple off around the house (by choice or circumstance) before their holiday turns into an all-out fight for survival. If you’ve watched previous trailers and demos you’re already familiar with Ashley and Chris and their ‘will-they won’t-they’ friendship. One of our favorite things about this dynamic is that their relationship is not pre-defined at the beginning of the game; your choices will decide if the relationship either blossoms or wilts before the night is out. That is, if they survive.
Choice is a central tenet of Until Dawn. Your actions not only determine who lives or dies, but will also directly influence the relationships between the characters (romantic or otherwise). You will even influence how characters react to each other. If you are mean to a friend, they may or may not choose to save you later in the game. The narrative will always continue forward, adapting to your decisions throughout the game – meaning that your game will be noticeably different from anyone else’s.
