Mods for Until Dawn are proving to be very popular as some players want to switch out some of the newer features and settings for some of the older ones. This article will cover some of the best and most popular mods that are available for Until Dawn.

1 Anti-Stutter High CPU And Disk Priority

A Great Mod For Those With Older Systems

Not everybody has a high-end gaming PC. As games get more advanced, players are constantly finding that their current systems are no longer able to handle the load of some of the newer games. The remastered version of Until Dawn is no different.

This can be rather taxing on older systems. This handy mod helps to increase the performance output on weaker CPUs, making it so players on older PCs can play the game without as many jumps or frame rate drops.

2 O'Death Restored

Brings Back the Old Credit Visuals

Original Intro Song Mod Until Dawn

Gamers aren't always fans of change, especially when the changes aren't always necessary. This mod brings back the old opening credit visuals from the 2015 version of Until Dawn.

While it's not a huge mod, it is proving to be very popular as many players prefer the old visuals and sounds of O'Death over the new styling of Out Of The Shadows. Ultimately, this comes down to player preference, but it seems like the large majority of players prefer the old opening sequence to the new one.

3 Psycho As Shrek

Unleash The Ogre

Play As Shrek Mod In Until Dawn

Despite only being released recently, there are already mods out there that add a touch of comedy to this otherwise scary game. Psycho As Shrek, as its name suggests, replaces The Psycho with Shrek.

This utterly ridiculous mod is a lot of fun. Instead of jumping and recoiling at some of the more terrifying scenes, players laugh as they try to escape Shrek. This mod is great for those who have completed the game and are looking to have another playthrough but with a comedic twist.

4 Beta Sam Hair Restoration Mod

Bring Back Sam's Original Hair

Sam's Hair Mod

Similar to the O'Death Restoration mod, there are those out there who don't like some of the changes that have been made to the original version of the game. Sam's hair has been a somewhat divisive topic, with some players liking the color changes and others feeling like it looks a little off.

For those who find her new look a little off-putting, this mod brings back her original hairstyle from the PS3 version of the game. This mod has proven to be pretty popular with players not only using it but also requesting to see other changes made to various characters.

5 Disable Depth Of Field

Great For Those Who Suffer From Motion Sickness

Depth Of Field Mod Until Dawn

This mod is pretty self-explanatory. There are players out there who struggle with motion sickness. Motion sickness can be brought on by things like motion blur and depth of field inconsistencies. While some settings can be tweaked to reduce this feature in the game, this mod completely disables depth of field.

While the developers may introduce this feature further down the line, for the moment, if the player wants to outright disable this feature, they will need to turn to a mod like this one.

6 UD Enhanced

Drastically Improves The Game's Visuals

Fixed Sharpness Mod In Until Dawn

Just like most horror games, Until Dawn's visibility is supposed to be somewhat limited to add to the intensity of the game. However, some details are hard to make out due to the colors and shadowing introduced by the developers.

This mod doesn't change the brightness, but it instead makes things look sharper. This is great for seeing things in more detail. It's not a particularly large mod, but it makes a huge difference to Until Dawn's overall feel as players become more immersed in the game.

7 Soft Light

Greatly Increases The Visible Details Of The Game

  • Link To Mod: Soft Light

As the name suggests, this mod brings a softer light to the game. While visibility is supposed to be somewhat limited, this mod does a great job of creating better visuals without taking away from any of the horror elements in the game.

This mod helps to bring a more cinematic feel to cutscenes, creating a more immersive experience for players. While there are lots of players who enjoy the current lighting style in the game, there are also those who want to change things. This mod is great for those wanting to turn Until Dawn into a more cinematic experience.
