Fans hope that Sony does not remove the original title.

Some PlayStation fans are worried that the original Until Dawn may be delisted. Until Dawns remake was released in early October 2024 to mixed reviews. While many fans were excited to experience Until Dawn on a new platform, some felt it was unnecessary, especially since the old game still holds up to this day. However, many fans have praised the game's visuals, as the look has certainly improved from the title's initial release.

Most of the concern with the remake lies in the redundancy it brings. With one Until Dawn movie that is also in the works, this has fans worried that the new title might not bring anything new to the table story-wise. Although no script has been leaked for the upcoming film, it is expected to follow the plot of the games. Although this could also be why fans are worried about the delisting of the original.

To Dawn Remake characters lose their hair and body

An Until Dawn remake player encounters a strange bug that leaves some characters without hair or bodies, making the horror title even scarier.

According to some users, the PlayStation Store is showing the original Until Dawn as it cannot be purchased in some countries and regions. However, the United States did not experience this problem. Many assumed this was just a bug. However, some believed that Sony was phasing out the original title. Like the new one Until Dawn offers some changes, including a new prologue and a more open epilogue, several fans believed the team distanced itself from the original title.

Fans believe the delisting could be a PS Store error

Although there has been no official confirmation from Sony, some users who have seen the “not available for purchase” message were able to purchase the game when searching for it with a PlayStation 4 or a PlayStation 5 console. With the games sharing the same title, some speculation was made that there might have been some conflict that was unresolved. The old game was recently renamed To Dawn 2015although it is very possible that some internal coding may have caused this issue. Given the PS Store's history of bugs and errors, a coding issue could be to blame.

Hopefully Sony doesn't remove the original title as the new version has some issues. The Until Dawn remake is struggling on PC, with the port experiencing numerous performance issues. Some have even reported that graphical errors are a constant occurrence, which is bothering many players. Removing what many consider to be a superior, if outdated, version of the game could cause negative press, so Ballistic Moon should take note of this if it considers removing the original. Fans will have to wait for confirmation on whether the removal of the original game was intentional or just an inadvertent error.
