Until Dawn's PS5 remake scares - with bugs, image quality concerns and frame delivery issues


We recap the many issues with the Until Dawn remaster for PS5 - why is the game so beset by problems? And what does it get right?

Until Dawn's core visual design has also seen a generational leap, as you'd expect from an early PS4 title transitioning to the now-mature PS5 using Unreal Engine 5, with higher-res graphics and effects, better lighting and skin rendering and a warmer colour tone. The game is also limited to 30fps, with no option for a higher update rate - which is understandable given the nature of the gameplay, but still disappointing given the PS5's signficant advantage in terms of GPU and particularly CPU resources versus the PS4. We also covered a range of other news topics, like Nintendo's take-down of the Ryujinx emulator, the release of the Unreal MegaLights tech demo and improvements to God of War Ragnarök following a recent patch, amongst other items and supporter questions.
