A beloved DBD mode is returning, but it's not going to waste your time anymore

A typical Dead By Daylight match is already packed with frenetic action, but things only get wilder when you unleash double the amount of Survivors and Killers into a map. The beloved DBD 2v8 mode is returning in a few days' time for its third instalment, but Behaviour Interactive has now confirmed it will be coming with a brilliant new feature that eases one of its biggest frustrations. To make sure that those queuing as a Killer won't be sat twiddling their thumbs, Behaviour is adding the ability to play a match as a Survivor while waiting for your chance to slay.
