The Until Dawn Developer's Next Game, Directive 8020, Just Got a Release Date at Long Last
Directive 8020 features five-player local co-op, permadeath mode, and choice-driven survival horror gameplay with planned online multiplayer, announced Supermassive Games.
- Supermassive Games announced Directive 8020 will arrive on May 12 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Steam.
- Originally slated for October 2025, Directive 8020 was delayed after a round of layoffs announced last July.
- The game introduces Turning Points, permadeath mode, combat and stealth segments, and five-player local co-op, as announced by the studio.

- The story places a mimic-like alien at the center, as a crash-landed spaceship crew faces an alien that mimics prey, forcing an identical-looking individuals choice combined with permadeath mode and Turning Points.
