Dead By Daylight just won't quit!

Behaviour dropped two huge announcements for the title via the Dead By Daylight X (formerly Twitter)  account, along with a press release on their website,  that show that this game has no signs of slowing down any time soon. 

Dead by Daylight meets Dungeons and Dragons

First, the one we knew about; Dungeons and Dragons characters are coming tot the game! We're getting two new characters, one killer and one survivor. 

For the killer, Vecna enters the game: 

Have you heard the tale of the elusive bards? To dub them mere adventurers would be a disservice to the noble pair of Aestri and her companion Baermar . For whom else would risk life and limb, braving nature’s perils and countless thirsting swords to thwart evil’s forces, on a que st that led them beyond the outskirts of the storied Kingdom of Keoland and deep into the Forgotten Ruins?

As fate would have it, that road led only to one.

Lord of the Rotted Tower. The Master of Secrets. Each one a shield for those unwilling to speak his true name. Aestri and Baermar knew it well, for the Arch-Lich's chilling reputation preceded him. Yet still, they were unafraid to utter it: Vecna.

And on the survivor side, we get The Bard, Aestri:

One might wonder what chance a bard would stand in the face of such cold, calculating, malevolence. They simply haven’t met the right bard. Aestri and Baemar are as wily as they come, having stood face to face with all manner of threats, from bandits to beholders. At least, if their lyrics are to be believed...

In any case, you’d be wise to stick close. Aestri’s instincts are second to none, and it’s been said she can sense whenever an objective is close to hand. Should you happen to find what you’re looking for, listen closely to the inspiring guidance of her music – it might prove the difference between life and death. Speaking of which, it cannot be overstated how adept she is at staying one step ahead, bamboozling even the most astute Killers with her powerful Mirrored Illusion spell.

The reveal trailer can be seen below, and it packs quite a punch! 

 

The Dead By Daylight Dungeons and Dragons content will release on June 3rd for Xbox Series, Playstation, and PC. 

Castlevania Enters The Chat...

Not done yet, a second reveal was made via X (formerly Twitter) that we'll let speak for itself...

Thats right, Allucard himself from the Castlevania series appears to be enterting the game. While we know little beyond this 34 second teaser video, they did mention to mark August 6th, 2024 as the date to learn more about this particular reveal. 

We'll have more updates for you as we get them.
