Until Dawn 2: Is It Coming to PC? Answered

A sweat-soaked young man stares into the dark in Until Dawn 2

Not as of now. Sony has announced Until Dawn 2 only for PS5, where it launches on January 28, 2027, and there is no PC version, Steam page or PC system requirements from Sony or developer Firesprite.

That could change later, and the series has history on PC: the 2024 remake of the original Until Dawn launched on PC and PS5 on the same day. Below we cover exactly what Sony has announced, why PC players have reason to hope, what to ignore in the meantime, and how you can still play Until Dawn 2 from a PC on launch day if you own a PS5.

What Sony Has Announced

Everything official so far points to PS5:

  • The reveal. Firesprite’s June 2, 2026 PlayStation Blog post announced “an all-new sequel for PS5” arriving in 2027.
  • The date. Firesprite creative director Stu Tilley’s September 3 post confirmed it “launches on PS5 on January 28, 2027,” with pre-orders from September 10.
  • The store page. PlayStation’s official game page lists PS5 as the only platform, carries a “PlayStation Exclusive” badge and marks the game as PS5 Pro Enhanced.
  • The FAQ. Asked whether the game is coming to PS4, PlayStation’s own answer is that “Until Dawn 2 is exclusive to PlayStation 5 consoles.”

Firesprite is a Liverpool-based PlayStation Studios developer, and the story was “crafted with AdHoc Studio,” the team behind Dispatch. Until Dawn 2 is Firesprite’s first release since Horizon: Call of the Mountain, the PS VR2 game it made with Guerrilla.

Why PC Players Have Reason to Hope

The first game’s history is the strongest argument for a PC version eventually:

  • The 2015 original was a PS4 game. Firesprite’s reveal post itself opens with “Back in 2015, Until Dawn arrived on PlayStation 4.”
  • The remake launched on PC on day one. Ballistic Moon’s rebuilt Until Dawn arrived on October 4, 2024, on both platforms at once, announced in a PlayStation Blog post titled “Until Dawn, rebuilt and enhanced for PS5 and PC, launches October 4.”
  • Sony publishes it on Steam itself. The Until Dawn remake on Steam lists PlayStation Publishing LLC as its publisher.

The difference is that the remake was a new version of a nine-year-old game, while Until Dawn 2 is a brand-new first-party release. Sony announces each PC version separately, and for this one it has announced nothing. Until it does, plan on PS5.

What to Ignore Until Sony Says Otherwise

Because people search for a PC version, the gap is already being filled with guesses. As of October 29, 2026, there are no official PC system requirements, no Steam or Epic Games Store listing and no PC release window. Pages that publish “Until Dawn 2 PC requirements,” and key resellers listing a “PC (Steam)” copy, are not working from anything Sony or Firesprite has released. Do not pre-order a PC copy from anyone: there is nothing to pre-order.

How to Play Until Dawn 2 on a PC at Launch

If you own a PS5, you can still play from a PC on January 28, 2027. PlayStation’s store page lists Until Dawn 2 as “Remote Play supported,” and PS Remote Play streams games from your own PS5 to a Windows PC over your network. It is streaming, not a PC version: the game still runs on the console, so you need the PS5 and a good connection.

What You Can Play on PC in the Meantime

  • The Until Dawn remake. It is on Steam now, and it is the best way to meet Dr. Hill, played by Peter Stormare, whom PlayStation’s FAQ calls “the only returning character in Until Dawn 2.” On PS5, the remake is also part of the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium Game Catalog, per PlayStation.
  • Dispatch. AdHoc Studio’s superhero comedy shows the kind of writing that helped shape Until Dawn 2’s story. Our news on its commentary and storyboard modes covers what is in it now.
  • More horror. Our list of the best horror games on Steam has plenty to play first.

If you are buying on PS5, our list of the best horror games on PS5 puts the remake in context, and Supermassive, the studio that made the 2015 original, is not named as a developer on the sequel; our story on layoffs at Supermassive covers where that studio stands.
