The developer of Until Dawn Remake, Ballistic Moon, has officially been dissolved. Paperwork was filed with the UK government in February 2026.
Insider Gaming first exclusively reported in March 2025 that Until Dawn Remake developer Ballistic Moon had “effectively closed.” This followed the layoffs announced in September 2024.
Now, the company has officially dissolved, according to a Final Gazette filed in February 2026. The Until Dawn remake was released in October 2024, and by December of that year, the company had quietly laid off the remaining staff it had kept on board to support the game after launch.
The remake received mixed reviews. Currently, it has a Metacritic score of 70. Unfortunately, that’s the only project the team ever released. The studio was founded by former Supermassive Games staff members Duncan Kershaw, Neil McEwan, and Chris Lamb in 2019.
No major representatives from Sony or Ballistic Moon have commented on the studio’s dissolution. As of the aforementioned March 2025 report, Insider Gaming attempted multiple times to contact Ballistic Moon representatives and Sony. Should any statements be made by any representatives of either party, this story will be updated.
Studio Shakeups Carry on Through Early 2026
Earlier today, Electronic Arts announced several layoffs across its Battlefield Studios group. Studios of all sizes continue to make massive restructurings in these challenging times. Highguard from Wildlight Entertainment will be shutting down later this week after downsizing the studio to keep a core number of staff members on to support the game.
Ubisoft has also recently undergone massive shake-ups, resulting in the cancellation of numerous titles. Learn more about that here.
