How Many Deaths Do You Have In You?

Sony Pictures and PlayStation have released the first full UK trailer for Until Dawn.

Based on the 2015 PlayStation Studios video game, Until Dawn (2025) was previously announced to be a new story with a whole new cast of characters.

Now in the newly released trailer, it becomes clear the ‘choice’ mechanics and replay-ability that were a key part of the original game’s appeal have become an explicit part of the story. While the characters in your save files are blissfully unaware of the amount of times you got them killed, the characters in Until Dawn are very much aware they’re trapped in a time loop. One in which they’re being murdered horribly, over and over again.

The film seems to feature some of the monsters from the original game, along with some new additions such as murderous old women, infectious worms and giants. As the trailer teases ‘every night holds a clue’.

“One year after her sister Melanie mysteriously disappeared, Clover and her friends head into the remote valley where she vanished in search of answers. Exploring an abandoned visitor center, they find themselves stalked by a masked killer and horrifically murdered one by one…only to wake up and find themselves back at the beginning of the same evening. Trapped in the valley, they’re forced to relive the nightmare again and again – only each time the killer threat is different, each more terrifying than the last. Hope dwindling, the group soon realizes they have a limited number of deaths left, and the only way to escape is to survive until dawn.”

Directed by David F. Sandberg from a script written by Blair Butler and Gary Dauberman. The film stars Ella Rubin, Michael Cimino, Odessa A’zion, Ji-young Yoo, Belmont Cameli, Maia Mitchell and Peter Stormare.

Until Dawn will be released 25th April.
