Sony and Ballistic Moon’s remake of Until Dawn launched earlier this month, but it doesn’t look like the game is performing too well where sales or player numbers are concerned. In fact, at launch, the horror title seems to have attracted a smaller audience than what has been one of the biggest and most high-profile flops in recent memory.

As per a report by TrueTrophies – which cites gameplay sample data from over 3.1 million active PSN accounts – Until Dawn saw 28 percent fewer players on PS5 at launch than the disastrous Concord, which launched earlier this year and was on the market for just two weeks before being pulled offline and taken off sale.

In comparison, the biggest single-player launch that the PS5 has allegedly seen so far this year was The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, which had 98.5 percent more players than the Until Dawn remake at launch, the report claims.

The horror title is also available on PC, but hasn’t done too much better there either, having peaked at just over 2,000 concurrent players on Steam, making it one of Sony’s worst-performing games on the platform to date.

Critical reception for Until Dawn has been mixed, with the remake sitting at a Metacritic score of 70 after 31 reviews. Our own review of the remake was more positive. Awarding it a score of 8/10, we said, “Though it’s hard not to see the validity of criticisms over its pricing and and questions over whether it even needed to be made, the Until Dawn remake is ultimately a solid and enhanced new version of a modern horror classic.” Read the full review through here.

An Until Dawn movie is due out next year, having recently wrapped filming. Reportedly, a sequel to Until Dawn is also in development at Firesprite. Read more on that through here.
