Okay, so today I wanna talk about this game, The Quarry. I’ve been seeing people online asking if it’s like a sequel to Until Dawn, and honestly, I was curious too. So, I did a bit of digging and played through both games to see what’s up.
First off, I started by searching for any official word on this. Turns out, the developers themselves call The Quarry a “spiritual successor” to Until Dawn, not a direct sequel. That means they’re similar in vibes but not really connected story-wise. I found out that Until Dawn is about a bunch of friends trying to survive a crazy night on Blackwood Mountain, while The Quarry focuses on camp counselors dealing with their own messed-up situation.

With that cleared up, I dove into playing both games. I started with Until Dawn, just to get a feel for it. Man, that game is intense! It’s got all those jump scares and tough choices that really mess with you. After I finished Until Dawn, which was like, forever ago in 2015, I finally got around to playing The Quarry. It came out in June 2022, and let me tell you, it was a wild ride from start to finish.
Playing The Quarry, I definitely felt those Until Dawn vibes. The creepy atmosphere, the choices that make you sweat, it’s all there. But the story is totally different. It’s about these camp counselors, and it’s got its own unique twists and turns. You can also see it’s got none of the old characters. I also did some reading online, and people were saying how tough it is to keep this one guy, Matt, alive. Apparently, even the little choices you make can affect whether he makes it or not.
My Experience
- Started with Research: I looked up what the developers said about the connection between the two games.
- Played Until Dawn: Got a feel for the game’s style and atmosphere.
- Played The Quarry: Experienced the new story and compared it to Until Dawn.
- Compared Notes: Noticed similarities in gameplay and atmosphere, but the stories are different.
- Read Online Stuff: Found out about the challenges in the game, like keeping certain characters alive.
So, after all that, I can say that The Quarry isn’t a sequel to Until Dawn. It’s like its own thing, but it definitely gives you that same spooky, choice-driven experience. If you liked Until Dawn, you’ll probably dig The Quarry too. Just don’t go in expecting the same story or characters. It’s like a whole new nightmare, but in a good way. Oh, and watch out for Matt – that guy’s got it rough! Also, you need to watch out for a guy named Nick, avoid calling back when you see him.
