What exciting stuff may come packaged with the game mode remains to be seen.

It’ll certainly be interesting to see how the developer manages to balance and evolve the near-perfectly refined gameplay loop of the standard 1v4 battles for survival that the game is known for. What’s equally fascinating, however, areDead by Daylight‘s other reveals and what awaits the players in the future.

Given Supermassive’s portfolio, there is much speculation that the game will more or less be an interactive movie of sorts with a branching narrative, similar toDark Pictures AnthologyorUntil Dawn.
Many within theDead by Daylightcommunity hope for the game to further expand on the lore of the game’s universe, though some believe that it will only bring up more questions than answers. As it stands, not much is clear about the game’s narrative, but the fog should shortly disappear as Behaviour and Supermassive reveal more information about the game in the future.
