The Quarry is an upcoming interactive drama horror video game developed by Supermassive Games and published by 2K Games. It is the spiritual successor to Until Dawn and is set to be released for Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X and Series S on June 10, 2022.

The Quarry is a survival horror interactive drama video game played from a third-person perspective. In it, the player assumes control of nine different teenagers who must survive a night at the Hackett’s Quarry. The player must make different decisions, which would change the character development, the plot as well as relationship between different characters. All nine playable characters may die by the end of the game, and each character potentially has 10-12 different ways to die. Supermassive expected the game to last for about 10 hours, though early death of certain characters may cause the game to end earlier at around 7 hours. Due to the game’s branching storyline, it has many endings, and at the end of a playthrough, players will be given different collectible cards that depict the fate of each character. Once they are complete with their first playthrough of the game, they will unlock Death Rewind, which allows them to undo three character deaths in each subsequent playthroughs.
