Dead By Daylight is a multiplayer game developed by Behaviour Interactive. One player becomes a savage Killer, while the four other players must escape.

Dead By Daylight is a multiplayer game developed by Behaviour Interactive that takes one of its players and makes them into a savage Killer that the four other players must try to escape. 

2v8 Trials will take place across 5 classic Maps, each of which has been expanded to house the action. Generators have also been doubled, with Survivors now needing to repair 8 of 13 to escape. Hooks and Perks have been jettisoned in a bid to keep the action flowing. 

Downed Survivors are now sent directly to Cages, while Survivor Perks are replaced with a new class system designed to encourage teamwork as players can adopt clearer “roles” within a Trial. Instead of Classes, Killers will receive changes to their Powers, as well as a crucial team-based ability to amplify the havoc they can wreak as a duo.  Dead by Daylight has its party mode, and it’s available for a limited time from July 25th, 2024.

Cross Progression

Available on July 22nd, Cross-Progression is coming to Dead by Daylight allowing players to sync their progress and purchases across platforms.
