Ex-PlayStation narrative director starts Until Dawn film petition to credit game writers
Until Dawn is the latest video game to get itself a film adaptation, having made its cinematic debut on 25th April.
Now, a former PlayStation narrative director has started a petition"for the integrity of the Until Dawn creators", which they hope will see the film's credits updated so members of the original team "may be finally honoured".
