I really loved the game, and was willing to give the remake a fair hearing. However, no way I’ll be paying £60 for it. £30, maybe £40 at a stretch so I’ll wait for Black Friday and see if a discount can tempt me then

[Sonic1881]

Especially for an old game. The price is not worth it in my opinion. This game didn't even need a remake

[InUrFoxHole]

Yeah. The game is amazing! Really liked this and heavy rain

[jznrpg]

Heavy Rain is my favorite of this genre. That driving scene was a pain in the ass to get the platinum.

[jznrpg]

I’ll definitely get it again as it’s really good but I’ll wait for a price drop as well

[Becuzisaid]

Loved this game, but no way this should be a full price release. I'll get it down the road.

Why do they keep remaking PS4 games that don't need to be remade?

They waste their time on this movie game with no real gameplay when they have things they can remake like Jak and Daxter. How about porting native versions of GoW 1 and 2 that don't have to be streamed?

[BlackCountryBob]

Did I read somewhere that they’re making a movie so wanted to port it to PC to drum up good word of mouth.

Which wouldn’t be a problem if it was a £10 upgrade on PlayStation

[Amplitude]

It's completely remade in UE5 with new environments, all new character models, new story branches, a new orchestral soundtrack, a completely different camera system, etc

Not saying it needed to be remade, but a $10 upgrade is an enormous ask.

Still - why they did such a high budget remake of this instead of a sequel is a mystery to me. A sequel would work better with the movie too - anybody that sees the movie would want to buy the game to see what happens next.

Oh well. Hardly surprised. Sony are kind of morons this generation honestly

[BlackCountryBob]

@Amplitude, Fair enough, but I do question why any of those changes were necessary . Having played through the PS4 original 4 of 5 times, I can’t say I’ve ever found myself thinking the game needs an orchestra.

I’d have loved a sequel but do wonder if part of the issue is that even with all the Dark Pictures Anthology as well as The Quarry, none of them have got close to as enjoyable of a story and setting as the original Until Dawn. Wonder if they just don’t have any good sequel ideas

[MrBaskerville]

@Amplitude
The only reason for this, that I can think of, is for them to train a team in a safe enviroment before doing a sequel. If this team don't do a sequel, all this is highly confusing. They probably want to turn this into a full fledged sony ip.

PS5. The remake generation

[Profchaos]

This feels like one of those what were they thinking moments the original was a free early PS plus game on PS4 and most people who were interested would have played it already unless they were on Xbox at the time.

Then they turn around and ask full price for a movie we've seen before it's a bit much
