Until Dawn received a rapturous response at PlayStation Experience last week. While the jury may still have been out on this David Cage-esque survival horror escapade, any concerns seemed to fade away with the spontaneous crowd engagement during Sony’s keynote. At the conference, though, we only got to see a couple of minutes of the PlayStation 4 exclusive’s brand new demo, so how about watching the full thing?
In this eight minute clip, Hayden Panettiere is shown exploring the remote lodge that acts as the backdrop for this Cabin in the Woods-inspired experience. As was the case with the demo that we played earlier in the year, this sequence is filled with jump scares – many of which don’t even make sense. It also shows off some of the title’s quirky mechanics, such as the need to hold your controller steady to avoid being caught by your creepy pursuer.
Clearly this isn’t going to be everyone’s cup of tea, but the sheer stupidity of the whole thing has rocketed it right to the top of this author’s wishlist. Are you with us? Roll your eyes in the comments section below.

It's demo at PSX shows what Until Dawn can sold on, imagine playing it through SharePlay or through streaming with audience participation and suddenly it becomes a bit of a killer app for those features.
Magic towel.
I'm loving the look of this game!
Why not have the game version of a shlock horror movie? I'm assuming it's intentionally done in such a corny way? It looks fun, Id give it a shot.
@Munkyknuts It's definitely intentional, yeah.
I think this game sounds interesting. I hope it ends up being good.
Yeah, this looks like a lot of schlocky fun. I'm definitely gonna give this game a try!
so hyped for this.
Definitely interested. May not get it day one, but it's on my radar.
Press X to RUN SON!
Good! Mabye I'll have the balls to play a horror game for once. xD
