Horror Game The Quarry Will Launch Without Multiplayer
Supermassive Games' forthcoming horror title, The Quarry, will launch without multiplayer options in tow, the developer has announced. A spiritual successor to beloved PS4 exclusive Until Dawn, The Quarry represents Supermassive's latest stab at the teen slasher genre. The studio went all out for this particular project, too, bringing in several horror movie veterans to fill out its star-studded cast. Scream star David Arquette counts among the cast members, as does Aliens' Lance Henriksen and Lin Shay of Nightmare on Elm Street and Insidious fame.
The development crew unveiled The Quarry this past spring, promising a choice-based narrative experience that appeals to those who love teen horror. Players who hop aboard the spooky adventure will take the role of nine different summer camp counselors at Hackett's Quarry, each of whom must eventually come face-to-face with untold horrors. Like several of Supermassive's other titles, The Quarry will boast a multiplayer mode that allows up to seven friends to watch along and cast votes about character and narrative choices. The studio previously announced couch co-op as well, which will involve users in a group making decisions for a camp counselor of their choice.

According to the developer, the decision to delay multiplayer was to ensure it launches in the best state possible.
