How to Get the Worst Ending?

Until Dawn Endings – How To Get All Endings? (1)

The worst ending means that all the 8 characters must die in Until Dawn. To get this ending, you need to fail at quick time events, fail at Don’t Move events and don’t try to save anyone who needs help.

To secure the worst ending, Chris, Ashley, Emily, Matt, Jessica, and Josh should die before Sam and Mike make it to the lodge in the final chapter. Once there, Sam should fail at Don’t Move events and get killed by Wendigo, while Mike should be the only one left, and he’d sacrifice himself and Wendigo by blowing up the lodge.

Aside from being sadistic, you can opt for the said ending to earn the This is the End trophy for your collection.

How to Get the Best Ending?

The best ending is when all eight friends survive and go home. To secure this ending, Matt, Jessica, and Josh should be alive till chapter 10. Sam, Mike, Chris, Ashley, and Emily must be at the lodge in the final chapter, and Sam should choose the Save Mike option and then the Hide option to complete the Don’t Move events. Lastly, hide frequently to give time to other characters to run out of the lodge, and when Sam is the last one, then run to the switch to blow up the lodge and run out.

Here is how to save everyone – in alphabetical order – to get the best ending:

How to Save Ashley

First of all, you need to sacrifice Josh and not Ashley. Moreover, in Chapter #9, the researchers do not choose to investigate the noise and part with the rest of the group. And even if you decide to investigate, do not open the thumping hatch.

How to Save Chris

During Chapter #6, do not point your gun at Ashley and decide to shoot yourself in the head – which will not happen. A little ahead, during Chapter #8, shoot down all the enemies with a shotgun, and Ashley will let you inside the lodge.

How to Save Emily

During Chapter #8, let her escape the room and do not mess with Emily’s QTEs.

How to Save Jessica

During Chapter #4, select the riskier paths as Mike and rush to save her. Then, later in Chapter #10, choose the ‘Hide’ option whenever it pops up and complete all the QTEs to save Jessica.

How to Save Josh

To save Josh, you must find all the Twin Clues in the game lest he cannot identify his sister’s tattoo on the Wendigo that will crush his skull.

How to Save Matt

During Chapter #6, do not shoot animals roaming the area while you are roaming with Emily. While you are on the radio tower, choose ‘Jump to Safety’ and do not help Emily. If you wish to help Emily, you must have the Flare Gun.

How to Save Mike

As Sam, you will be provided with the choice to either ‘Save Mike’ or ‘Hit the Light.’ Select ‘Save Mike’ and then hide before running towards the light.

How to Save Sam

To Sam, you need not mess up a single QTE in the game and successfully hide from the Wendigos.

How to Get Grim Ending?

Only one out of the 8 characters stays alive in this one of the Until Dawn Endings. To get this ending, make sure Chris stays alive till the end and get Ashley killed before Mike breaks the bulb. This will give Chris time to escape the lodge while Mike breaks the bulb.

For this ending, you must make several mistakes like failing quick time events to get the other character killed and then make the right choice to save one character.

How to Get a Bittersweet Ending?

In this ending, you will have a few characters alive. Make sure you have at least two characters alive besides Mike and Sam, and complete the first quick-time event by not moving. Once Mike burst the bulb, one of the survivors will escape, and Sam needs to run for the switch instead of helping Mike.

For this ending, you must ensure Sam and Chris survive through the 10th chapter. Now, the choices that you will make will be both good and bad at a critical time.

How to Get a Good Ending?

Until Dawn Endings – How To Get All Endings? (5)

This is one of the only endings that will have most survivors in Until Dawn, so you must try to save as many characters as possible and pay close attention to clues and totems. Complete the Don’t Move events in the lodge, save Mike, and Hide frequently to let other characters escape before you turn on the switch.
