You’ll be forgiven for looking at the artwork below and thinking that it comes from the upcoming Friday the 13th video game. In actuality, Dead by Daylight is an upcoming horror title from Starbreeze, the developer of the highly acclaimed 2007 comic book adaptation The Darkness.

And while comparisons to Mr. Voorhees’ upcoming video game outing are inevitable, as they’re both asymmetrical multiplayers with one person controlling the killer and the other as the potential victims, keep in mind that Starbreeze has a smooth track record, so expect another hit. Check out the dev diary video below, and head over to the game’s Steam page to stay updated.

Synopsis:
Dead by Daylight is both an action and survival horror multiplayer game in which one crazed, unstoppable killer hunts four survivors through a terrifying nightmarish world in a deadly game of cat and mouse.

Key Features

  • As a Survivor go in alone, or team up with friends to face an unknown threat. Use equipment at hand, unlocked abilities and environmental objects to outwit the monster and escape from his killing ground.
  • Sent into a procedurally generated world, you’ll never know what to expect, what you’re facing, and how to get away. You will have to make stressful choices under desperate circumstances. Every decision impacts your chances of survival.
  • Killers come from all horror genres, from brutal slashers to terrifying paranormal entities. Master these monsters’ unique powers and exploit the knowledge of your “home” to track, hunt down, break, and sacrifice your victims before they get a chance to run to safety.
  • The asymmetry, procedural factors and unique thinking of human individuals make each Dead by Daylight match an unexpected scenario where the combined behavior of each player creates a truly terrifying and thrilling narrative.
  • Dead by Daylight characters have deep progressions and unlockables which can be customized into your own personal strategy. Use your experience, skills, and load-out to climb up the competitive ladder; and you might eventually discover the truth beyond the fog.
