Supermassive Games at a Glance

Supermassive Games is a British developer based in Guildford, Surrey, that has been active from 2010 through 2026. Founded in 2008, the company has released 28 titles as a developer while acting as a publisher for only two projects. Their catalog leans heavily toward adventure games with 21 releases in that genre, followed by four puzzle games and three shooters. The studio works across many systems, with PlayStation 4 seeing the most content at 14 titles, while PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 each host ten or more of their games. They also support older hardware like the PlayStation Vita and current handhelds such as the Nintendo Switch. The studio is best known for horror experiences including Until Dawn, The Dark Pictures Anthology series, and The Quarry. This focus has earned them a BAFTA award for Until Dawn and spots on Deloitte UK Technology Fast 50 and Technology Fast 500 lists in 2013. Their output shifted slightly over time with fifteen games released during the 2010s compared to ten titles in the 2020s so far. Recent projects include The Casting of Frank Stone in September 2024 and upcoming releases like Directive 8020 in May 2026. Quality ratings across their eighteen tracked titles show an average score of 66.1 out of 100. The breakdown indicates twelve games rated as good, two as great with scores above 80, and four that fell into mixed or poor categories. Their highest rated work is The Dark Pictures: Switchback VR at 85 points, followed by Until Dawn: Extended Edition and the original Until Dawn near the 80 mark. The Quarry also performed well with a score of 78.9. However, not every release hit that mark, as seen in recent titles like The Devil in Me which scored 71.7 and The Casting of Frank Stone at 67.2. Some earlier or niche entries dropped below 60 points, showing that while they have produced standout hits, their consistency varies across the full library.
