Dead by Daylight gets new DLC packs, cuts character prices in half

Dead by Daylight is massive, with years of content updates and paid expansions under its belt. Behaviour Interactive regularly releases new characters, features, and fun tidbits. Players looking for a free-to-play experience may become overwhelmed as the developer steadily drops such DLC, which has prompted Behaviour to announce its brand-new Gold Edition, a version of the survival-horror game that makes most of its content accessible in a cheaper bundle.

Until Dawn devs' single-player Dead by Daylight game is The Casting of Frank Stone

Until Dawn developer Supermassive Games has finally revealed its single-player Dead by Daylight game at The Game Awards tonight: The Casting of Frank Stone. It is expected to release in 2024.

Earlier this year, Supermassive Games announced it was working on a single-player title set within the world of Behaviour Interactive's Dead by Daylight, though not much was confirmed about it at the time. After a tease from the official Dead by Daylight official Twitter yesterday, we finally have our first look at Supermassive's take on the popular asymmetric multiplayer game; you can take a look at the trailer below!
