There aren’t many changes in the Until Dawn remake endings that make it different from the original. In fact, the only noticeable change is that Josh can now be saved. Outside of this, a new post-credit ending follows the cutscene that reveals whether Josh transformed into a Wendigo or redeemed himself of his past actions based on your decisions when controlling Josh and Sam.

Let’s dive into how to unlock every ending in Until Dawn.

There isn’t much difference between endings aside from dialogue and the presence of your favorite character. Every ending is pretty much the same if at least one person survives until dawn. Regardless of who survives (if any), the ending concludes in the same fiery blaze as the cabin goes up in flames, and a helicopter flies by to pick up any remaining survivors. The credits show the survivor(s) retelling their version of events to the police.

There are hundreds of endings in Until Dawn, but their differences are incredibly minor. Your relationship at the end of the game between core pairings and couples dictates what each survivor will say in their interview. Instead, there are two main endings: The Good or the Bad. Unless he dies at the hand of Hannah in Chapter 10 – Repentance, the post-credits cutscene will always reveal Josh’s fate.

Of course, the best thing to do is to save everyone and get the best ending in Until Dawn. But when the endings remain the same, it may be more fun to purposely fail every QTE just to see how the game concludes with zero survivors. Why not take a more extreme approach than Josh? Letting everyone die is how you get true revenge for a prank that went so badly wrong—it managed to get Hannah and Beth killed.

Because Mike and Sam are the true MVPs of the story, both characters can survive up until the final standoff between the teens, Hannah, and the remaining Wendigos. But you can start killing off party members as soon as Chapter 4 – Malevolence. Here’s a rundown of everything you must fail to get your characters killed off in Until Dawn:

CharacterChapter(s)Choices
Jess4 – MalevolenceComplete the safest and slowest QTEs as Mike at the start of Chapter 4. Getting to Jess late will get her killed.
Chris6 – Psychosis and 8 – RevelationChoose to shoot Ashley in Chapter 6.
Either fail to shoot the Wendigo pursuing you in Chapter 8 or survive only for Ashley to lock you out of the cabin because of your earlier choice.
Ashley9 – DespairInvestigate the voice in the tunnels and open the trapdoor.
Matt6 – PsychosisSide with Emily for everything and then try to save her twice in the fire tower.
Em8 – RevelationTake too long to start the elevator or fail the QTEs as the Wendigo pursues her. Alternatively, survive the encounter for Mike to kill her after learning she was bitten by a Wendigo.
Josh10 – RepentanceFail to find Hannah’s Journal as Sam.
Mike10 – RepentanceDon’t select Save Mike when controlling Sam in the final encounter. Fail the Don’t Move timers for Sam to die, forcing Mike to sacrifice himself.
Sam10 – RepentanceFail the Don’t Move sequences inside the cabin on the final encounter.

If you want no one to survive, then this ending will inevitably conclude with Mike as the last man standing, sacrificing himself by igniting the cabin with his lighter. The credits have no police interview in store as no members survived. Instead, the credits showcase how every member died and their time of death.

There are a lot of specific moments where your choice determines a character’s fate. Some are far harder to predict and save than others (poor Matt), while other member’s survival comes down to your reflexes and composure during Don’t Move events. Here is a quick summary of how to save everyone:
