Created by ZooBlazer (talk). Self-nominated at 07:17, 7 March 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/List of games by Supermassive Games; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Might as well review this too, for any future DYK QPQs. Article new enough, long enough and is detailed and thorough. Alt0 seems to lack the "interesting" bit for a fact other than a year of completion. I am leaning towards Alt1, but perhaps it could use a little tweaking. Perhaps mention that as a result of the unexpected success/positive reception, it resulted in the release of spin-off games? Happy to review suggested alt(s).

ALT2: ...that the positive reception for Until Dawn, a game by Supermassive Games, caught Sony by surprise, leading to two spin-off games?

ALT2.5: ...that the positive reception for Until Dawn, a game by Supermassive Games, caught Sony by surprise, leading to spin-off games and an upcoming film?

ALT3: ...that The Dark Pictures: Switchback VR, a game by Supermassive Games, was made as a spiritual successor of their previous game, Until Dawn: Rush of Blood?

@Pseud 14 I expanded on Alt1 and added an unrelated hook for Alt3. -- ZooBlazer 20:36, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick turnaround Alt2 and Alt2.5 looks good to me. I'll let the promoters pick which one to run. Great work on this. Pseud 14 (talk) 21:04, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

We are in WP:QPQ backlog mode. Double reviews are required.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 06:53, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

TonyTheTiger The double review applies to people with 20+ DYK nominations. I have less than half of that. -- ZooBlazer 09:18, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for having a second look Tony. Just to add, the emergency backlog mode of 2x QPQ per nomination applies to nominators with more than 20 DYK nominations, and the second criteria is for DYK nominations made after March 8 (at least until it is rescinded). I use the QPQ Checker tool to confirm the number of DYKs from an editor when I do my reviews. Pseud 14 (talk) 15:59, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
The QPQ check tool to the right counts only 9. I don't really trust the QPQ tool that much because it barely counts 40% of my own nominations. But If the nominator feels that they have done less than 20 noms this can go forward or they can do the double. This case is on the honor system.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 18:47, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
In this case, 9 is the correct number, so the tool is accurate for me. -- ZooBlazer 19:35, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
Restoring tick originally given by Pseud 14; there is no requirement for this nominator to provide a second QPQ for backlog mode as they're nowhere near 20 DYK nominations. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:35, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
