Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer (4v1) horror game where one player takes on the role of the savage Killer, and the other four players play as Survivors, trying to escape the Killer and avoid being caught and sacrificed. Survivors play in third-person and have the advantage of better situational awareness. The Killer plays in first-person and is more focused on their prey. The goal is to repair five generators to power up the escape gates and flee the trial grounds.
Play as Killer or Survivor: Hunt your prey with brutal efficiency or work together with others to outsmart your pursuer.
Procedural Levels: No two trials are the same; every map layout is procedurally generated, ensuring you never know exactly what’s around the corner.
Iconic Horror Legends: Play as or against legendary characters from franchises like Halloween, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Stranger Things, and Five Nights at Freddy's.
Deep Progression: Customize your character with unique perks, items, and offerings to fit your personal playstyle and strategy.
Cross-Platform Play: Team up or compete with friends across PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.
Massive 2v8 Mode: Experience chaotic large-scale trials where two Killers face off against eight Survivors.
