Year 8: More Fog, More Fear
Year 8 promises an avalanche of content, from gameplay mechanic upgrades to new quality-of-life additions. Get ready to clutch your controllers a little tighter with the announcement of four brand-new chapters and an unexpected twist: two extra Survivor-only chapters! Our next heart-stopping chapter, ‘End Transmission,’ is an original tale that’s sure to keep you on your toes. Then, prepare for a star-studded arrival as the iconic Nicolas Cage steps into The Entity’s realm as a Survivor. Two licensed Killers will also be introduced to the game, followed by a final Survivor-only Chapter and one more Original Chapter.
End Transmission
Dare you answer the call of the void? ‘End Transmission’ plunges us into a terrifyingly unique biome with menacing flora, set on the eerie Toba Landing, a planet unlike any other in The Entity’s realm. With the introduction of ‘The Singularity’, a monstrous blend of restructured organic matter and machine parts, the stakes have never been higher for new Survivor, Gabriel Soma. Don’t forget to circle June 13, 2023, on your calendar when this chapter drops on all gaming platforms.

Cosmetics Galore
Dead by Daylight is getting a heavy metal makeover, thanks to new Collections honouring rock legends Iron Maiden and Slipknot. On top of this, the Artists from The Fog Collection will spotlight the talents of our global community, with contributions from creators across the globe. The cherry on top? A collaboration with the vibrant Ikumi Nakamura. We can’t wait to see these outfits in action later this summer!
