Last year’s multiplayer horror sensation Dead by Daylight has finally made its way to consoles for $29.99 thanks to distributor 505 Games. Developed by Behavior Interactive and published by Starbreeze Studios, the game has one payer controlling a killer and the others controlling four survivors as they try to escape. Dead by Daylight sold over one-million digital copies on PC and we also enjoyed it in our review, so PS4 and Xbox One gamers should definitely make this a top priority.
Note that the Halloween DLC, which features Michael Myers and Laurie Strode as playable characters in addition to Haddonfield as a stage, is not currently available in the console version of Dead by Daylight, although we learned that it will be added soon during our visit with the developers at E3. Look for that interview soon!
Synopsis:
Dead by Daylight is an asymmetrical, multiplayer (4 vs 1) horror game where one player takes on the role of a savage killer, and the other four players become Survivors frantically scurrying to avoid being caught, tortured and killed. 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 Survivors’ goal in each encounter is to escape the Killing Ground without getting caught by the Killer – something that sounds easier than it is, especially when the environment changes every time you play.
Tons of Extra Content: The Original Soundtrack, The 80’s Suitcase add-on, The Bloodstained Sack add-on, The Of Flesh and Mud Add-on, and A future DLC to be released!
Survive Together… Or Not: Survivors can either cooperate with the others, or be selfish. Chances for survival depend on your decisions.
Where Am I?: Each level is procedurally generated, so you’ll never know what to expect. Random spawn points mean you will never feel safe as the world, and its dangers, change every time you play.
A Feast for Killers: Dead by Daylight draws from all corners of the horror world. Play anything from a powerful Slasher to a terrifying paranormal entity.
Deeper and Deeper: Each Killer and Survivor has their own deep progression system and plenty of unlockable that can be customized to fit your own personal strategy.
