Until Dawn’s PS5 remake heavily teases a sequel with post-credit scenes

A remake of Supermassive Games’ Until Dawn was released for PlayStation  and PC last Friday. And those who beat the game over the weekend, myself included, have discovered post-credit scenes that heavily tease a sequel.

The climax of the PS4 original sees Rami Malek’s Josh get killed or turned into a Windego, depending on the player’s choices. Meanwhile, characters such as Hayden Panettiere’s Sam can survive if players are able to outsmart attacking Windegos. Until Dawn’s PS5 remake adds on to those endings in two post-credit scenes that appear depending on the player’s choices. You can can watch them below.

If players show remorse as Josh in an earlier dialogue exchange and he survives, a new post-credit scene shows Josh survived the attack. He hears the voice of Dr. Hill in his head still, who says that he hopes Josh can find redemption. If Sam survives, there’s a lengthier post-credit scene featuring new motion capture and dialogue from Panettiere. It takes place several years later in Los Angeles and shows that Sam has medicated herself to get over the events of Until Dawn. She wakes up to find that a scar on her arm is bleeding, then hears banging on her door and someone calling out her name.

This isn’t an implied death like the end of I Know What You Did Last Summer, but instead, it seems to be a tease that Sam’s story will continue in some way. Sony has not announced a sequel to Until Dawn yet, but these scenes heavily suggest that one is on the cards and that Panettiere and Malek could return. It also wouldn’t be surprising because an Until Dawn film will be released soon.

Until Dawn’s remake is available now for PS5 and PC.

3 underrated PS Plus games you should play this weekend (May 3-5)
The main character of Tales of Kenzera: Zau stands with two elemental items.

PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra have been around for almost two years, and during that time the subscription service has established itself as an ample competitor to Xbox Game Pass. That means there is a wealth of great games for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 owners to check out if they're looking for something to play this weekend. I think PS Plus subscribers should be looking toward some of the more underrated games in the subscription service this weekend too.

I have three particular picks in mind. The first is an enjoyable Metroidvania that came to PS Plus' game catalog when it launched just a couple of weeks ago and deserves a lot more attention than it's getting. After that, there's an action-platformer that pays homage to series like Ninja Gaiden that you should check out before it leaves the catalog. Finally, there's a PS2-era Star Wars game that fills the niche a recently canceled game would have.

Fallout 4 is finally getting free Xbox Series X and PS5 upgrades
New Fallout 4 Creation Club mod content coming with the Xbox Series X and PS5 launch.

Bethesda has confirmed that the current-gen update for Fallout 4 will finally release on April 25.

That's good timing, as a Fallout TV show just released on Amazon Prime this month to positive buzz. Fallout 4 came out for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox One in 2015, and this definitely looks like it will be the most substantial update the game has received since its last expansion was released.

PS4 vs. PS5: which console should you buy in 2024?
PlayStation 5 controller and PS5.

PlayStation 5 has been available for several years now and amassed an impressive library of great PS5 games. The new-gen hardware makes big upgrades over its predecessor, letting gamers enjoy better graphics, shorter loading times, and support for the fancy DualSense controller and other PS5 accessories. It's also much more expensive than PS4, so while PS5 is better than PS4 in most regards, it might not be ideal for frugal shoppers.

But is PS4 or PS5 the better choice in 2024? Does the aging PS4 really make sense to purchase right now, or should you opt for the PS5? From pricing and available games to storage and resolution, here's a closer look at these two popular consoles.
PS5 vs. PS4 vs. PS4 Pro specs
Even a cursory glance at the specs of the PS5 shows that it’s in a different league than the PS4 (and even the PS4 Pro). Sony has improved the capabilities of its platform in every way, adding more efficient storage, faster compute parts, support for larger capacity disks, and support for higher resolutions. We know there are two versions of the PS5 -- the Standard Edition and Digital Edition -- both of which will offer the same specs (with the exception of the omission of a disc drive with the Digital Edition). There's also the new PS5 Pro, but we won't be comparing that to keep things simple.
