Until Dawn: PS4 exclusive is already terrifying fans

Until Dawn will hit shops this Friday

ONE of the scariest video games ever has been shocking fans and making some scream ahead of its big release.

 

Until Dawn is a PlayStation 4 exclusive that takes you into the twisted world of a movie-like horror story. 

You get to battle and mostly run away from monsters in the epic hit and it's being touted as this month's top game. 

 

Until Dawn follows eight friends who find themselves stranded on a mountainside

You'll have to wait for our ultimate review coming shortly in Until Dawn, but to give fans a taste of what to expect Sony decided to spark terror among unsuspecting shoppers this week. 

They wanted to "test the nerve of the British public" by inviting random people into a black box to play a snippet of the adventure game. 

A Playstation spokeswoman said: "Unsuspecting passers-by were invited to step inside a mysterious black box to brave an exclusive preview of the game and their reactions didn’t disappoint. 

 

From screaming and swearing, to cowering in fear

"From screaming and swearing, to cowering in fear, falling over, and even biting (yes, biting!), it’s clear that not everyone could #SurviveUntilDawn."

Until Dawn follows eight friends who find themselves stranded on a mountainside following a trip to a remote cabin, with a series of sinister events making them suspect they're not alone.

Gripped by fear and with tensions running high, you're invited to "step into the quaking boots of each of the eight terrified characters as you search for clues to a deranged killer's identity". 

Making life-or-death decisions, everything you do will drastically alter the course of the story - and the fate of each character. 

Until Dawn is available on PS4 from Friday.
