Of rushing water flooding her lungs. Countless dances with death, and so many more to come. Courageous and resourceful, Lara Croft has braved life-threatening expeditions, amassing battle scars and adrenaline-fueled memories. Whether facing the perils of the supernatural or the extremes of nature, Lara has proven herself to be among gaming’s most formidable – *and honorable* – heroes. Now, swept into The Fog and faced with one of her darkest adventures yet, Lara’s survivalist spirit will be pushed to the extreme. Instead of seeking artifacts in long lost tombs, she must now rely on a group of fellow survivors, clinging desperately to a common goal, no matter hopeless things may seem." In life-or-death situations, a pallet or window can prove as valuable as any ancient treasure. There’s no doubt Lara’s climbing experience will prove beneficial, providing a critical burst of speed when a chase appears dire. ![WEB_Screenshot_1_S43P01-Finesse.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_1_S43_P01_Finesse_5edad5d5ca.png) Her memories of Yamatai may fade with time, overtaken by nightmarish black fog. Yet the lessons she learned will remain ingrained, even in the face of endless terror. While someone with lesser resolve might scream, Lara understands the severity of that reaction, instead using it as an opportunity to regroup and scout her enemies. ![WEB_Screenshot_2_S43P02-Hardened.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_2_S43_P02_Hardened_1f2fd8366b.png) You can take the raider out of the tomb, but the minute an opened treasure chest crosses her path, Lara Croft’s instinct never fails to kick in. Seek treasure and prosper. ![WEB_Screenshot_3_S43P03-Specialist.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_3_S43_P03_Specialist_33ebca8591.png) Some adventures propel adrenaline. Others span vast continents, land, sea and air. Yet those that leave the deepest scars are the ones that delve into the shadows, where not even death is an escape. See you in The Fog, The Dead by Daylight Team. https://deadbydaylight.com/news/lara-croft-in-dead-by-daylight-tomb-raider/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/lara-croft-in-dead-by-daylight-tomb-raider/ Tue, 25 Jun 2024 14:52:03 GMT Updates & Releases Dead by Daylight’s Twisted Masquerade Event 2024 | Everything To Know Gather ‘round and ready your least damaged attire, Dead by Daylight’s Twisted Masquerade has returned. From **June 13th 11 AM ET – July 4th 11 AM ET**, take a seat at the table and experience a delightfully unhinged bash that only The Fog can provide. ### SETTING THE TONE Don’t let the macabre atmosphere fool you – this is a party, damn it. Don’t you see the balloons? The Hooks? *The Generators*?? It took us hours to decorate Father Campbell’s Chapel! Alright, fine. Here’s a goodie bag with a shiny Flashlight, Med-Kit, and Toolbox. Why yes, that is Twisted Masquerade original. <imagegrid> ![DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_1.1_PP_1920x1080_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_1_1_PP_1920x1080_VF_55e95c9bbf.png) ![DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_7.7_PP_1920x1080_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_7_7_PP_1920x1080_VF_28d9cb1b53.png) ![DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_7.8_PP_1920x1080_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_7_8_PP_1920x1080_VF_001efc8e8c.png) ![DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_10.4_PP_1920x1080_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_10_4_PP_1920x1080_VF_a86aca9243.png) </imagegrid> ### MEET TRYKS These invitations must be coming from somewhere, right? This year’s Masquerade marks the arrival of the host du jour, a figure as enigmatic as she is eccentric, as gleefully unhinged as the most exhilarating nightmare. Though she goes by many names, you will come to know her primarily as **Tryks**. In fact, she happens to play a central role in this year’s gameplay event. On that note... ![DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_8.5_PP_1920x1080_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_8_5_PP_1920x1080_VF_5d8884127f.png) ### INVITING TROUBLE This Twisted Masquerade, Invitations are the name of the game. They will be placed throughout every Trial, placed atop an ornate Masquerade Pillar. Once you procure one, you’ll find yourself gaining otherworldly – and helpful – Abilities: **SURVIVOR** - Block a window vault for the Killer. - Spawn a Fragile Pallet whether in and out of a chase. - Activate Quiet mode, which lowers your footsteps, breathing, grunts of pain, and entering/exiting a locker. ![DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_3.1_PP_1920x1080_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_3_1_PP_1920x1080_VF_38ecc20efe.png) **KILLER** - Teleport a Survivor directly to a Hook when carrying them on your shoulders. - Remotely break a Pallet - Reduce the impact of a stun. ![DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_4.2_PP_1920x1080_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_4_2_PP_1920x1080_VF_7350ed34c3.png) Once an Invitation ability is activated, the charge is used up and you must find another one. You can carry maximum of 2 Invitations at a time, and charges will regenerate over time. Don’t be afraid to use your abilities freely – that's what they’re for! ### BAG OF TRYKS Having an invitation in your back pocket can be advantageous, but there’s another wildcard at play. Literally – a *wild* card courtesy of Tryks, who isn’t exactly known for playing with a full deck. At the beginning of every Trial a set of 5 cards will be randomly selected to impact the match. Once revealed, they will activate in order, with the first card activating at the beginning of the Trial. Once the Trial begins, players will be able to activate the next card by collectively earning points through in-game actions like Hooking a Survivor for the first time or finishing a Generators. After 2 points, a new card will Activate, replacing the previous one. What do the cards do, you ask? **You're Invited** - All players instantly receive a charged Invitation. **No Invite For You!** - All players instantly lose an Invitation. **Peekaboo!** - All players have their Aura briefly revealed. **Move It Or Lose It!** - All players gain a Haste bonus for a duration. **Heal You, Expose You!** - All injured Survivors are healed and immediately Exposed. **Wait, Where...?** - Survivors leave no Scratch Marks and the Killer is Undetectable. **Party Totem!** - All Dull Totems are revealed and transform to Anniversary Totems, which remain until the next card. **Party Chest!** - All unopen Chests become Anniversary Chests. **Zzl Zilch!** - Nothing happens. ### EVENT TOME &amp; UNLOCKABLES The Twisted Masquerade introduces a new Event Tome, featuring 3 levels of Challenges and 3 Community Challenges to complete. Complete challenges to earn Gilded Trinkets, which can be used to unlock lavish Outfits for the Masquerade’s guests of honor, Bill Overbeck and The Unknown, 12 new Masks for Killer and Survivor, and several unique Charms and Player Cards. <imagegrid> ![DBD_EVENT_Churros_Twisted-Masquerade_3D-Outfit-Render_both_16x9_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_EVENT_Churros_Twisted_Masquerade_3_D_Outfit_Render_both_16x9_VF_4320304d3f.png) ![DBD_EVENT_Churros_TwistedMasquerade_Badges-Banners_16-9_V02.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_EVENT_Churros_Twisted_Masquerade_Badges_Banners_16_9_V02_d467dee03c.png) ![DBD_EVENT_Churros_TwistedMasquerade_3D-Charms_16-9_V02.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_EVENT_Churros_Twisted_Masquerade_3_D_Charms_16_9_V02_c113a13988.png) ![DBD_EVENT_Churros_TwistedMasquerade_MaskRender_16x9_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_EVENT_Churros_Twisted_Masquerade_Mask_Render_16x9_VF_a1a58fa1d6.png) </imagegrid> You can also purchase previous Event Cosmetics for both Killer and Survivor, including the fan-favourite masks from previous Masquerades, by heading to the in-game store. ### DAILY LOGIN REWARDS It’s a time of celebration, and we’ve got you covered with daily login rewards for the Event’s entire duration.

See you in The Fog... https://deadbydaylight.com/news/twisted-masquerade-everything-to-know/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/twisted-masquerade-everything-to-know/ Thu, 13 Jun 2024 14:31:54 GMT Updates & Releases Play Your Role with Dead by Daylight’s new Dungeons & Dragons Outfits The Dungeons &amp; Dragons Collection is here, featuring new Outfits for The Lich and Aestri Yazar, including an Outfit that lets you play as her companion Baermar Uraz. Like any new adventure, choosing your gear is essential. In the corner of a tavern comes whispers of garments. Some bold and whimsical, others as ominous as the Underdark itself. ### The Lich – Whispered One – Very Rare Only one deity was powerful enough to successfully invade the floating city of Sigil. His actions caused powerful disruptions that reverberated through the multiverse. ### Aestri Yazar – Tale From The Sea – Very Rare Following a description found on a scroll, Aestri’s treasure hunt led her to a lone island. Buried beneath the shore was what she searched for, a silver seashell that sang a song about a vast ocean kingdom. She transcribed the song, and buried the seashell, leaving it for another adventurer to find. ### Baermar Uraz – Roadside Ambush – Very Rare Baermar sensed something on the road ahead, he readied himself for a fight. When bandits appeared from behind the trees, he held his lute and strummed a soothing tune. One after another, they fell asleep, and he continued on his path. “As many of us were huge fans, collaborating with Dungeons &amp; Dragons has been an amazing experience,” says Kirby Taylor, Product Manager on Dead by Daylight. “We wanted to pay tribute to an iconic Vecna moment with this Outfit, and then with our original Bards, we wanted to continue incorporating as many D&amp;D elements as possible. We know creating your character is super important, so we gave them unique, deeper customization options when mixing and matching Cosmetics.” ## LOOT, YOU SAY? A ranger, a sorceress, a barbarian, a rogue, and a fighter walk into a tavern... The Dungeons &amp; Dragons Collection brings new Outfits for Meg Thomas, Jeff Johanesen, Mikaela Reid, The Legion (Susie), and The Knight. For anyone who ever wondered which D&amp;D classes our Dead by Daylight characters would choose, this one is for you. ### Meg Thomas – Sidetrack Archer – Very Rare While they were exploring a magical forest, the DM warned the party about an approaching monster. As a Ranger, she felt responsible for their safety. She rolled the d20 and held her breath until the die came to a stop. The roll was successful. She distracted the monster and helped her friends. Meg sat back in her chair and let out a deep sigh of relief. ![ConceptArt_DnD_Meg.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Meg_a3356ebcc4.png) ### Mikaela Reid – Mystical Origins – Very Rare Mikaela introduced her character as they began their new campaign. Every night, she watched the sea. One night, from the calm water emerged a dark figure with skin that reflected the light of the moon. Her strength faded as she fainted, clutching her heart. When she awoke, she could feel her heart overflowing with untamed magic that could bring both wonder and terror. ![ConceptArt_DnD_Mikaela.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Mikaela_76a3f8da41.png) ### Jeff Johansen – Reluctant Warrior – Very Rare Jeff hoped to meet new people when he signed up to play the game. But looking at his character sheet, he worried he would embarrass himself in front of everyone. He chose a class that could express pain through fury, like he did through music. When he accidentally led his party to a trap, and a solid stone door came down behind him, he crashed through the door, shattering it with a single strike. It was a moment his new friends talked about even after the game was over. ![ConceptArt_DnD_Jeff.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Jeff_79a7d3e75c.png) ### The Legion (Susie) – Backstabber – Very Rare Susie approached the evil lord from behind and rolled to land the killing blow. It was a critical fail. Susie's rogue took damage while Joey's fighter killed the lord with a single hit. Joey wouldn't stop gloating about Susie's failure. Susie decided to put Joey in his place, attacking his fighter. Susie's rogue plunged the knife into his fighter and kicked him in the shin for good measure. ![ConceptArt_DnD_Legion_Susie.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Legion_Susie_16a4792dae.png) ### The Knight – Menacing Knight – Very Rare The thieves heard the story of an ancient relic hidden in a cave. They came across a towering knight, with eyes that glowed red like fire in the dark of the knight. It appeared to be more monster than man. Only the thuds of their severed bodies hitting the ground echoed in the mountain pass. ![ConceptArt_DnD_TheKnight.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_The_Knight_837257c348.png) “When creating this Collection, we really tried to get into the heads of our Survivors and Killers to see how they might approach a Campaign," continues Kirby Taylor. “For Survivors, we imagined how they would create their characters and matched them with a D&amp;D class. For Killers, we explored some iconic enemies that many adventuring parties have faced. The team really had a blast exploring the ideas and inspirations for these Outfits, so don’t be surprised if we see more additions to this Collection in the future!” Gather your party and ready those D20s, for the Dungeon &amp; Dragons Collection is available now in the Dead by Daylight Store. See you in The Fog, The Dead by Daylight Team https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dungeons-and-dragons-collection/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dungeons-and-dragons-collection/ Mon, 03 Jun 2024 15:14:50 GMT Cosmetics From D&D to DbD: A New Player’s Handbook Venturing into the dark world of Dead by Daylight can feel intimidating, but every journey must begin with a single footstep – even if unnaturally thick Fog stands in your path. So where should one begin this malevolent quest? A simple answer would be to begin with **Dead by Daylight: Dungeons &amp; Dragons**, which offers Vecna as a Killer and Bard, Aestri Yazar as a Survivor. Think of each role as a class, with each one holding oppositional ideals. A **Killer** strives to sacrifice four Survivors, a ritual that involves placing them on a Hook as an offering to an eldritch being of incomprehensible power known as **The Entity**. A Survivor strives to elude said Killer, assist their team in repairing five Generators to power up the Exit Gates, and escape with their life intact. They can use the environment to either hide from or evade the Killer by vaulting through windows or knocking down wooden pallets to temporarily block their path. You even net yourself some experience points along the way. ### Killer or Survivor? Not unlike the task of selecting a D&amp;D class, you must choose whether to play a Trial as a Killer or a Survivor. Should you play as a Killer – Vecna, in this instance – it may be helpful to channel your inner Dungeon Master, in which you are the centerpiece of a most challenging encounter. The Survivors are your player characters, determined to thwart you using whatever tools they have at their disposal. This time, you’re actively rooting for a TPK... To succeed as Killer, you must familiarize yourself with their Power. Vecna’s **Book of Vile Darkness** grants him access to four deadly spells – some of which you may recognize – each one serving a different purpose. Cycle through his spell book to use **Mage Hand, Flight of The Damned, Fly,** and **Dispelling Sphere**. Use these spells to gain an advantage in a chase, damage targets from afar, gain ground, and render any magical item temporarily useless. Should you wish to learn more about Vecna’s Power – as well as a bit of insight into how he wound up in The Fog to begin with – head over to his official character page [here](https://deadbydaylight.com/game/characters/the-lich-vecna/). ![WEB_Screenshot_1_VecnasPower.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_1_Vecnas_Power_3e5e8538f6.png) Should you opt to play as Aestri, the first Bard to enter The Fog, your objective is to repair generators, heal and rescue your teammates, and launch a daring ballad-worthy escape. When facing The Whispered One, that might not be so simple. Luckily, you’ll be able to collect Magical Items to aid you, though only when you’re going against Vecna. Each Magical Item corresponds to a different spell, providing an edge whenever Vecna uses it. If fortune is smiling upon you, you may stumble upon Vecna’s treasured artifacts – the Hand and Eye of Vecna. Use these items to gain a significant advantage when the hour appears darkest. For more insight into Aestri’s Perks and backstory, head over to her official character page [here](https://deadbydaylight.com/game/characters/aestri-yazar/). ![WEB_Screenshot_7_StillSight.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_7_Still_Sight_361a35ffb2.png) ### Understanding Perks As an adventurer has their tools to achieve their aims, so too do the Killers and Survivors in Dead by Daylight. **Perks** are the Feats of the Dead by Daylight universe, providing characters with an in-game ability tailored to their preferred playstyle. Each character comes with 3 unique Perks, though they can also use any Perk in the game - provided it’s unlocked. Vecna’s **Weave Attunement** Perk allows you to track Survivors based on the location of their depleted Items. **Languid Touch** lures nature to your side, Exhausting Survivors whenever they alert a crow within your presence. **Dark Arrogance** weakens you to flashlights and Pallet stuns, but heightens your speed when Vaulting. Aestri’s **Mirrored Illusion** allows you trick pursuers with a magical image of your likeness, which you can place strategically around Generators, Totems, or Exit Gates. **Bardic Inspiration** invites you to let your lute do the talking, providing a magnificent melody to spur your teammates on. **Still Sight** provides additional information while standing still, revealing the Auras of any nearby objectives. It may seem overwhelming to enter The Fog as a beginner, but the best method is to simply dive in and experience everything it has to offer. We hope you enjoy your time with Dead by Daylight: Dungeons &amp; Dragons! https://deadbydaylight.com/news/from-dnd-to-dbd-new-player-handbook/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/from-dnd-to-dbd-new-player-handbook/ Mon, 03 Jun 2024 15:14:21 GMT Updates & Releases Aestri Yazar | Dead by Daylight Survivor Lore Aestri and Baermar arrived in the Free City of Greyhawk to trade songs and stories with the locals. But what the bards learned during their visit would set them on their final adventure. According to locals and travelers alike, a new magic unlike any other was spreading across the land. The forces of evil were disappearing from every corner of the land, leaving no trace of their malevolence. There was much rejoicing throughout Greyhawk, but Aestri and Baermar felt differently. A bard's purpose in life was to celebrate triumph over adversity. A world without evil would be a world with no new songs to sing. Aestri knew what she had to do. She scoped out the taverns and back alleys of the city, looking for adventurers willing to help her and Baermar find the source of this strange new magic. Many turned her down - why would she want evil to return to the land? But using her wit and charisma, Aestri was able to inspire enough townsfolk to join her in restoring the balance between good and evil. Together, this ragtag troupe of adventurers traveled through swamplands and under mountains. They were driven out of towns by those who believed the troupe was secretly in league with the evil that had been eradicated. And every so often, folks would be kind enough to provide food, shelter, and most importantly, information. Baermar eagerly wrote down every clue and rumor they heard and concluded that the source of this strange magic must lie near the Kingdom of Keoland, where people spoke of an ancient tower emerging from its ruins, being instantly rebuilt bigger and stronger than it was before. Their suspicions were confirmed as the troupe made their way south. Villagers spoke of the tower -- and its lord -- in hushed tones, but Aestri knew the place by its reputation. They were traveling to the Rotted Tower, stronghold of the Arch-Lich Vecna. As they drew closer and closer to the Rotted Tower, the troupe could feel evil magic in the air. They steeled themselves for a fight with Vecna, but were shocked to find the Rotted Tower was completely empty. They made their way up the spiral staircase, passing window after window of shattered stained glass, until they reached the top of the tower. Amidst the debris, Aestri found a hastily-written scroll. Baermar was eager to show off his proficiency in arcana. He studied the scroll and realized the words were an incantation, written phonetically. As he sang the words aloud, the tower began to rumble. Black fog crept in through the stone floor. Aestri stopped Baermar from his recitation, but it was too late. The fog took hold of the adventurers, and within moments they were gone. https://deadbydaylight.com/news/aestri-yazar-lore/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/aestri-yazar-lore/ Fri, 31 May 2024 13:35:54 GMT Lore Vecna | Dead by Daylight Killer Lore The Whispered One. Lord of the Rotted Tower. The Master of Secrets. Few dare speak his true name, for fear that he may hear—or worse. Even as a young wizard, Vecna’s command of magic was matched by none. While others spent decades committing to and perfecting one school of magic, he effortlessly mastered each one of them. After his mother’s execution for witchcraft, his focus became obsession as he pored the most of his study into the darkest school of magic—necromancy, the magic of life and death. As his power grew, so did his ambition. Over the centuries, he shed his mortal shell and ascended to lichdom. His power gave rise to a great empire, ruled over from his Rotted Tower. His thirst for dark knowledge to fill his Book of Vile Darkness led him to many realms and planes. But it was in his own realm one of his servants found something—a spell, perhaps, torn from an ancient tome—written in a language he had never seen. From it he could sense an incredible dark energy. Without any document of the language, he had to spend months painstakingly analyzing its syntax, its phonetics, its form. He documented every stroke of every letter, scrutinizing and theorizing on their meanings, in a massive book hidden in his chambers. When his lieutenants came to him with problems in their domain, Vecna told them to deal with it themselves. He had more important matters to attend to. Countless nights were spent memorizing the strange script, attempting to make it make sense. Only occasionally would he leave his keep to investigate rumors of people who had disappeared without a trace in the night. At these scenes, he could sense the same foreign magic that emanated from the torn page. He was convinced that whatever was killing these people had also written this strange script. He was confounded, which made him furious. The scenes, few and far between, had no pattern, no common motive. No sign of struggle, no body, and only a lingering hum of dark energy. To what end did they need these bodies? One dark night, he had a breakthrough: a word he had been interpreting as “dying” made more sense as “disappearing.” Perhaps these people were not being killed at all: perhaps they were being taken alive. He applied this substitution through his notes and everything seemed to fall into place. He copied what he had learned to a fresh piece of parchment, written phonetically. He began to speak the words aloud and the room darkened. It filled with a creeping black fog. He felt himself displacing, going somewhere else. Vecna resisted, incanting memorized spells, holding the fog at bay. But as he gazed into the darkness, he felt that alluring energy from it; a despair, an evil he could scarcely imagine. A sick curiosity overcoming him, he dropped his concentration, and let the fog take him. Whatever it was, wherever it was, he understood that the only way to harness it was to submit to it. He knew, in his cold, unbeating heart, that its dark secrets would one day be his. https://deadbydaylight.com/news/vecna-the-lich-lore/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/vecna-the-lich-lore/ Wed, 29 May 2024 13:42:57 GMT Lore Dead By Daylight’s Cats & Dogs Collection Returns With New Outfits Dead by Daylight’s Cats &amp; Dogs returns with new Outfits dedicated to our beloved animal pals, including cosmetics for Renato and Thalita Lyra, Ace Visconti, Gabriel Soma, and The Ghost Face.

Even for those trapped within The Fog, memories of the pets they left behind gave them a reason to keep going. ### Thalita Lyra – All Tangled Up – Rare After her cat ruined a kite's spool during the night, Renato gave her this custom shirt as a birthday gift. ![ConceptArt_Cats&amp;Dogs_Thalita.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Cats_and_Dogs_Thalita_c2bbc8d39b.png) ### Renato Lyra – Take To The Skies – Rare Thalita printed a custom sweater for her brother, immortalizing the time a stray dog chased his kite during a competition. ![ConceptArt_Cats&amp;Dogs_Renato.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Cats_and_Dogs_Renato_3aa0c42c7a.png) ### Ace Visconti – Table Scraps – Rare Those endless poker tournaments required dogged determination. ![ConceptArt_Cats&amp;Dogs_Ace.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Cats_and_Dogs_Ace_92c9f68100.png) ### Gabriel Soma – Star-Kitty – Rare He remembered his parents giving him the sweater before his voyage.

You’re loading into a Dead by Daylight Trial, determined to craft the most effective, most optimal, and dare we say the most powerful build you can fathom. Or maybe this time you’ll use Perks you never used before. Maybe you’ll even build something thematic, disregarding the meta entirely. And that’s when you run out of time, quickly resorting back to your old familiar favourites. Well, the time has come to throw caution to the wind and experience the Chaos Shuffle, a Modifier that constructs your build for you completely at random, drawing from a **massive pool of every Perk in Dead by Daylight**. What’s even better is that each Perk in the pool is Level 3, so you’ll be getting them in their most effective form. ![DBD_LTE_Bacon_RandomPerks_KeyArt_Motion_1920x1080_v3_Simplified.gif](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_LTE_Bacon_Random_Perks_Key_Art_Motion_1920x1080_v3_Simplified_5110ff6870.gif) **BUT WHAT DOES THIS PERK DO?** Do you need to possess an encyclopaedic knowledge of every single Dead by Daylight Perk to enjoy this Modifier? Absolutely not. Part of the fun is embracing the chaos, even if you don’t always understand the finer points of how your build is operating. Either way, we have you covered. **If your loadout happens to feature a Perk you are unfamiliar with, you can read an explanation in the match details screen during a game. Just make sure to do it in a safe place...** We hope the Chaos Shuffle leads to players getti ng a kick out of an unconventional build, discovering interesting synergies, and confounding opponents with the unexpected. You might even come out of this with a new favorite Perk... ### CHAOTIC UNLOCKABLES While your Perks might be random, the rewards you’ll unlock by playing the Chaos Shuffle Modifier are not. Indulge in the bedlam and unlock further rewards from the Gold &amp; Silk Collection, including a player Badge, a Banner, and a Charm. ![DBD_LTE-Bacon_RandomPerks_All-Rewards_VF.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_LTE_Bacon_Random_Perks_All_Rewards_VF_ca2e31aaca.png) ### PERKS 101 Looking to catch up on the Dead by Daylight Perk pool?

See you in a different corner of The Fog, The Dead by Daylight Team https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dead-by-daylight-world-expansion/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dead-by-daylight-world-expansion/ Wed, 15 May 2024 13:59:30 GMT Updates & Releases Dead by Daylight Anniversary 2024 Recap: Everything Announced Our 8th Anniversary broadcast was packed with surprising new Chapter reveals, major gameplay updates, exciting news on the expansion of DbD, and so much more. If you missed the livestream, or want to rewatch your favorite moments, we’ve got you covered with a recap. ## What the Fog We kicked things off with the surprise announcement —and release— of ***What the Fog***, a brand-new 2 player co-op roguelite from the world of Dead by Daylight. As if their luck couldn't get any worse, Dwight, Claudette, and Feng Min have been sucked into a cursed boardgame. Don't you hate it when that happens? Now, you and a friend will need to use the power of teamwork if you want to survive and get the fog out of there. Learn to use your newfound abilities as you run, jump, and shoot your way through swarms of enemies in this chaotic game where the action never ends—even after you die. *What the Fog* is **OUT NOW**, and you can get it for **FREE** by signing into or creating a Behaviour Account **right [here](https://account.bhvr.com/) and following the steps**. There’s a limited number of free keys available, and conditions apply, so grab one today and invite a friend while you’re at it! What the Fog can also be purchased on Steam for $4.99 USD. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/JEAJPf0WuOo?si=xItMqyLhH-Z3G27i" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Click [here](https://www.youtube.com/live/GIwtIGmevQE?si=i0FRtlIOT8xQoxw_&amp;t=2125) to jump directly to the What the Fog segment of the broadcast. ## Year 9 Roadmap In the following segment, Head of Production Stefan Beauchamp gave a brief overview of what players can expect from the next year—including 6 new Chapters, 4 Tomes, exciting events, and of course, space for a few surprises along the way. ![DBD_BROADCAST_ANNIVERSARY_Y9_Roadmap_2D_16-9_B.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_BROADCAST_ANNIVERSARY_Y9_Roadmap_2_D_16_9_B_8d019b60d0.png) ### 2v8 Game Mode Sparing no time for the first of these surprises, the highly requested **2v8 Game Mode** was announced, and early details were shared. In this mode, 2 Killers will square off against 8 Survivors on a larger Map for a completely new Dead by Daylight experience. Several changes are being made to both Killer and Survivor mechanics that will make this mode feel fresh and encourage brand-new strategies and gameplay styles. For starters, we’re doing away with Perks for what amount to a Class system. Each of the included Killers and Survivors will have their own playstyle, so you’ll need to choose the right one for each Trial. To ramp up the action, we've also removed Hooks. When a Killer Downs a Survivor, rather than bringing them to a Hook, they’ll be able to send them right to a Cage. Getting sent to a Cage still counts as a Hook State, meaning 3 Cages and you’re out of the game. More info on the 2v8 Game Mode will be shared in a future livestream in July.

Players will soon be able to carry over their progress, unlocks, and more across platforms. A new **Challenge System** was also revealed, which will give players new ways to earn rewards outside of Tomes and Archives. To help stay on top of everything happening in The Fog, we’ll also be making some improvements to our **Messaging system**, which will help inform players on the latest news, patch notes and rewards, with less intrusive pop-ups. What better way to end things off than with a **Finisher Mori**. We know that players loved these stylish executions, and now they're going to be a baseline feature for every Killer!

The iconic Dungeons &amp; Dragons franchise was revealed as Dead by Daylight’s next Chapter. Our foray into dark fantasy will see the legendary villain **Vecna, The Lich**, as the new Killer, Bard **Aestri Yazar** as a new Survivor, and a new Map, **Forgotten Ruins**. During the presentation, Behaviour Interactive’s Head of Partnerships Mathieu Coté and Wizards of the Coast Producer Shaun Roe i ntroduced the new Chapter and shared key insights on how this unexpected collaboration came to be. For fans eager to see how the new Chapter will play, Creative Director Dave Richard and Principal Game Designer Janick Neveu took us through some of Vecna’s abilities and the new D&amp;D-inspired mechanics coming to the game.

This time around, the Masquerade’s mischievous host, Tryks, emerges from the shadows. As the mastermind pulling the strings, Tryks’s presence and voice can be felt all throughout the event—from loading screens, to the Survivor lobby, and even during Trials. Her big bash, however, takes place in the separate Trial Event Queue, where she’s got some interesting gameplay changes in store for those brave enough to accept her invitation. The Twisted Masquerade Event kicks off on June 13th, but we’ve got plenty of surprises to tide you over in the meantime with **Before the Masquerade**. <imagegrid> ![DbD_BACON-EVENT_Before-The-Masquerade-Banner_WEEK-1_16-9_VFd.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Db_D_BACON_EVENT_Before_The_Masquerade_Banner_WEEK_1_16_9_V_Fd_03ab7f2a43.png) ![DbD_BACON-EVENT_Before-The-Masquerade-Banner_WEEK-2_16-9.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Db_D_BACON_EVENT_Before_The_Masquerade_Banner_WEEK_2_16_9_d2f390eab1.png) ![DbD_BACON-EVENT_Before-The-Masquerade-Banner_WEEK-3_16-9.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Db_D_BACON_EVENT_Before_The_Masquerade_Banner_WEEK_3_16_9_6adb35bf0c.png) ![DbD_BACON-EVENT_Before-The-Masquerade-Banner_WEEK-4_16-9.png](https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Db_D_BACON_EVENT_Before_The_Masquerade_Banner_WEEK_4_16_9_fe4f861fb3.png) </imagegrid> From now until June 13th, we're showing our appreciation to players with login rewards, boosted Maps, mini-events, and sales inspired by Dead by Daylight’s history—including free Outfits for Meg Thomas and The Huntress.

In a mic-drop moment, Mathieu Coté revealed a teaser trailer announcing that the legendary Castlevania franchise would be sinking its teeth into Dead by Daylight later this summer . <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/9YEfRYKRr8s?si=Te-FfzYTeGwwoKoT" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Click [here](https://www.youtube.com/live/GIwtIGmevQE?si=-q5vdZaGiQ3nxvma&amp;t=7756) to jump to the Castlevania segment of the broadcast.

The Before the Masquerade Event is also on now! Log in today to receive your rewards. See you in The Fog... https://deadbydaylight.com/news/anniversary-recap-2024/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/anniversary-recap-2024/ Wed, 15 May 2024 13:59:00 GMT Events & Social Dead by Daylight Brings Dungeons & Dragons To The Table *‘Tis a game of ups and downs, a song replete with soaring crescendos and somber contemplation. The strings plucked on a lute are but a mirror to the strings of fate. One wrong note is all it takes.* 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. He was known by many titles. *The Whispered 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. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/dcizzog5WBo?si=R19azN8tLtkg0rqB" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> As spellcraft goes, few stand as formidable as the Vecna. One raise of his withered hand and he’s already closed the distance, quashing any misguided notions of escape. Even if you do manage to barricade yourself, perchance with a ramshackle piece of bound-together wood, his Mage Hand spell will handle that with ease. Attempting to match his power would no doubt be a fool’s gambit. The Master of the Spider Throne can render even the most powerful magic item to a mere trinket, if only for a few moments. Rumor has it that he can even call upon the Damned to fight for him, a spectral onslaught that cannot be abated. Keep a watchful eye for magic items scattered in Treasure Chests across the Realm, boots and gauntlets imbued with arcane power. It’s advised to use them, for they provide a slight edge against several of Vecna’s spells. It’s even whispered that he never strays far from his most treasured possessions, Hand and Eye alike. Should you happen to stumble upon one of those, use with caution; its power can be unpredictable, to say the least. 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. Is it fate that Aestri and Vecna would find themselves this strange realm of Fog and eternal darkness? And what might happen when they come face to face, dancing to the whims of a power beyond comprehension? Perhaps that is a song for another day. https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dungeons-and-dragons-to-the-table/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dungeons-and-dragons-to-the-table/ Tue, 14 May 2024 14:52:52 GMT Updates & Releases Dead by Daylight’s Before the Masquerade 2024: Everything You Need to Know On June 13th Dead by Daylight’s Twisted Masquerade Event will make its lavish return in celebration of our 8th Anniversary. It’s set to be bigger than ever with new Event-themed Cosmetics, gameplay features, décor, and even appearances by the mysterious host, Tryks. With an Event like this not far off, the anticipation must be killing you. But fear not, getting ready for a big party is half the fun. To tide you over until the festivities commence, we’re bringing back a smaller celebration that pays tribute Dead by Daylight’s past and offers plenty of rewards as a way to say thank you. **Before the Masquerade** starts now and ends June 13th. Here’s everything you need to know: ### Getting in the Spirit **Before the Masquerade** is divided into four weeks.

During the fourth week, all players will get XP and Bloodpoint boosts, and a chance at some older Anniversary Charms. **Here’s a weekly breakdown of the spoils:** ### Week 1 The first week features boosted Maps from the first 3 years of Dead by Daylight, a Blood Feast— meaning 3x the number of Bloodpoints per match, daily login rewards, and Store sales.

After that, on June 13th at 11am, the Twisted Masquerade will begin. Your attendance is expected. You wouldn't want to disappoint the host, would you? Stay tuned for more details on everything coming during Twisted Masquerade. For now, we hope you’re as excited as we are. See you in The Fog...

How many days have passed is unknown. All they know is that they’re lucky to get another one, in hopes of a better future.

Of rushing water flooding her lungs. Countless dances with death, and so many more to come.</p> <p>Courageous and resourceful, Lara Croft has braved life-threatening expeditions, amassing battle scars and adrenaline-fueled memories. Whether facing the perils of the supernatural or the extremes of nature, Lara has proven herself to be among gaming’s most formidable – <em>and honorable</em> – heroes.</p> <p>Now, swept into The Fog and faced with one of her darkest adventures yet, Lara’s survivalist spirit will be pushed to the extreme. Instead of seeking artifacts in long lost tombs, she must now rely on a group of fellow survivors, clinging desperately to a common goal, no matter hopeless things may seem."</p> <p>In life-or-death situations, a pallet or window can prove as valuable as any ancient treasure. There’s no doubt Lara’s climbing experience will prove beneficial, providing a critical burst of speed when a chase appears dire.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_1_S43_P01_Finesse_5edad5d5ca.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_1_S43P01-Finesse.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>Her memories of Yamatai may fade with time, overtaken by nightmarish black fog. Yet the lessons she learned will remain ingrained, even in the face of endless terror. While someone with lesser resolve might scream, Lara understands the severity of that reaction, instead using it as an opportunity to regroup and scout her enemies.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_2_S43_P02_Hardened_1f2fd8366b.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_2_S43P02-Hardened.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>You can take the raider out of the tomb, but the minute an opened treasure chest crosses her path, Lara Croft’s instinct never fails to kick in. Seek treasure and prosper.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_3_S43_P03_Specialist_33ebca8591.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_3_S43P03-Specialist.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>Some adventures propel adrenaline. Others span vast continents, land, sea and air. Yet those that leave the deepest scars are the ones that delve into the shadows, where not even death is an escape.</p> <p>See you in The Fog,</p> <p>The Dead by Daylight Team.</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/lara-croft-in-dead-by-daylight-tomb-raider/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/lara-croft-in-dead-by-daylight-tomb-raider/ Tue, 25 Jun 2024 14:52:03 GMT Updates & Releases Dead by Daylight’s Twisted Masquerade Event 2024 | Everything To Know <p>Gather ‘round and ready your least damaged attire, Dead by Daylight’s Twisted Masquerade has returned.

This year’s Masquerade marks the arrival of the host du jour, a figure as enigmatic as she is eccentric, as gleefully unhinged as the most exhilarating nightmare. Though she goes by many names, you will come to know her primarily as <strong>Tryks</strong>. In fact, she happens to play a central role in this year’s gameplay event. On that note...</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_8_5_PP_1920x1080_VF_5d8884127f.png" alt="DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_8.5_PP_1920x1080_VF.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>INVITING TROUBLE</h3> <p>This Twisted Masquerade, Invitations are the name of the game.

You can carry maximum of 2 Invitations at a time, and charges will regenerate over time. Don’t be afraid to use your abilities freely – that's what they’re for!</p> <h3>BAG OF TRYKS</h3> <p>Having an invitation in your back pocket can be advantageous, but there’s another wildcard at play. Literally – a <em>wild</em> card courtesy of Tryks, who isn’t exactly known for playing with a full deck.</p> <p>At the beginning of every Trial a set of 5 cards will be randomly selected to impact the match. Once revealed, they will activate in order, with the first card activating at the beginning of the Trial.</p> <p>Once the Trial begins, players will be able to activate the next card by collectively earning points through in-game actions like Hooking a Survivor for the first time or finishing a Generators. After 2 points, a new card will Activate, replacing the previous one.</p> <p>What do the cards do, you ask?</p> <p><strong>You're Invited</strong> - All players instantly receive a charged Invitation.<br> <strong>No Invite For You!</strong> - All players instantly lose an Invitation.<br> <strong>Peekaboo!</strong> - All players have their Aura briefly revealed.<br> <strong>Move It Or Lose It!</strong> - All players gain a Haste bonus for a duration.<br> <strong>Heal You, Expose You!</strong> - All injured Survivors are healed and immediately Exposed.<br> <strong>Wait, Where...?</strong> - Survivors leave no Scratch Marks and the Killer is Undetectable.<br> <strong>Party Totem!</strong> - All Dull Totems are revealed and transform to Anniversary Totems, which remain until the next card.<br> <strong>Party Chest!</strong> - All unopen Chests become Anniversary Chests.<br> <strong>Zzl Zilch!</strong> - Nothing happens.</p> <h3>EVENT TOME &amp; UNLOCKABLES</h3> <p>The Twisted Masquerade introduces a new Event Tome, featuring 3 levels of Challenges and 3 Community Challenges to complete.

In the corner of a tavern comes whispers of garments. Some bold and whimsical, others as ominous as the Underdark itself.</p> <h3>The Lich – Whispered One – Very Rare</h3> <p>Only one deity was powerful enough to successfully invade the floating city of Sigil. His actions caused powerful disruptions that reverberated through the multiverse.</p> <h3>Aestri Yazar – Tale From The Sea – Very Rare</h3> <p>Following a description found on a scroll, Aestri’s treasure hunt led her to a lone island. Buried beneath the shore was what she searched for, a silver seashell that sang a song about a vast ocean kingdom. She transcribed the song, and buried the seashell, leaving it for another adventurer to find.</p> <h3>Baermar Uraz – Roadside Ambush – Very Rare</h3> <p>Baermar sensed something on the road ahead, he readied himself for a fight. When bandits appeared from behind the trees, he held his lute and strummed a soothing tune. One after another, they fell asleep, and he continued on his path.</p> <p>“As many of us were huge fans, collaborating with Dungeons &amp; Dragons has been an amazing experience,” says Kirby Taylor, Product Manager on Dead by Daylight. “We wanted to pay tribute to an iconic Vecna moment with this Outfit, and then with our original Bards, we wanted to continue incorporating as many D&amp;D elements as possible. We know creating your character is super important, so we gave them unique, deeper customization options when mixing and matching Cosmetics.”</p> <h2>LOOT, YOU SAY?</h2> <p>A ranger, a sorceress, a barbarian, a rogue, and a fighter walk into a tavern...</p> <p>The Dungeons &amp; Dragons Collection brings new Outfits for Meg Thomas, Jeff Johanesen, Mikaela Reid, The Legion (Susie), and The Knight. For anyone who ever wondered which D&amp;D classes our Dead by Daylight characters would choose, this one is for you.</p> <h3>Meg Thomas – Sidetrack Archer – Very Rare</h3> <p>While they were exploring a magical forest, the DM warned the party about an approaching monster. As a Ranger, she felt responsible for their safety. She rolled the d20 and held her breath until the die came to a stop. The roll was successful. She distracted the monster and helped her friends. Meg sat back in her chair and let out a deep sigh of relief.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Meg_a3356ebcc4.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_Meg.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Mikaela Reid – Mystical Origins – Very Rare</h3> <p>Mikaela introduced her character as they began their new campaign.</p> <p>Every night, she watched the sea. One night, from the calm water emerged a dark figure with skin that reflected the light of the moon. Her strength faded as she fainted, clutching her heart. When she awoke, she could feel her heart overflowing with untamed magic that could bring both wonder and terror.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Mikaela_76a3f8da41.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_Mikaela.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Jeff Johansen – Reluctant Warrior – Very Rare</h3> <p>Jeff hoped to meet new people when he signed up to play the game. But looking at his character sheet, he worried he would embarrass himself in front of everyone.</p> <p>He chose a class that could express pain through fury, like he did through music. When he accidentally led his party to a trap, and a solid stone door came down behind him, he crashed through the door, shattering it with a single strike. It was a moment his new friends talked about even after the game was over.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Jeff_79a7d3e75c.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_Jeff.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>The Legion (Susie) – Backstabber – Very Rare</h3> <p>Susie approached the evil lord from behind and rolled to land the killing blow. It was a critical fail. Susie's rogue took damage while Joey's fighter killed the lord with a single hit.</p> <p>Joey wouldn't stop gloating about Susie's failure. Susie decided to put Joey in his place, attacking his fighter. Susie's rogue plunged the knife into his fighter and kicked him in the shin for good measure.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Legion_Susie_16a4792dae.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_Legion_Susie.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>The Knight – Menacing Knight – Very Rare</h3> <p>The thieves heard the story of an ancient relic hidden in a cave. They came across a towering knight, with eyes that glowed red like fire in the dark of the knight. It appeared to be more monster than man. Only the thuds of their severed bodies hitting the ground echoed in the mountain pass.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_The_Knight_837257c348.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_TheKnight.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>“When creating this Collection, we really tried to get into the heads of our Survivors and Killers to see how they might approach a Campaign," continues Kirby Taylor. “For Survivors, we imagined how they would create their characters and matched them with a D&amp;D class. For Killers, we explored some iconic enemies that many adventuring parties have faced. The team really had a blast exploring the ideas and inspirations for these Outfits, so don’t be surprised if we see more additions to this Collection in the future!”</p> <p>Gather your party and ready those D20s, for the Dungeon &amp; Dragons Collection is available now in the Dead by Daylight Store.</p> <p>See you in The Fog,</p> <p>The Dead by Daylight Team</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dungeons-and-dragons-collection/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dungeons-and-dragons-collection/ Mon, 03 Jun 2024 15:14:50 GMT Cosmetics From D&D to DbD: A New Player’s Handbook <p>Venturing into the dark world of Dead by Daylight can feel intimidating, but every journey must begin with a single footstep – even if unnaturally thick Fog stands in your path.</p> <p>So where should one begin this malevolent quest? A simple answer would be to begin with <strong>Dead by Daylight: Dungeons &amp; Dragons</strong>, which offers Vecna as a Killer and Bard, Aestri Yazar as a Survivor.</p> <p>Think of each role as a class, with each one holding oppositional ideals. A <strong>Killer</strong> strives to sacrifice four Survivors, a ritual that involves placing them on a Hook as an offering to an eldritch being of incomprehensible power known as <strong>The Entity</strong>. A Survivor strives to elude said Killer, assist their team in repairing five Generators to power up the Exit Gates, and escape with their life intact. They can use the environment to either hide from or evade the Killer by vaulting through windows or knocking down wooden pallets to temporarily block their path.</p> <p>You even net yourself some experience points along the way.</p> <h3>Killer or Survivor?</h3> <p>Not unlike the task of selecting a D&amp;D class, you must choose whether to play a Trial as a Killer or a Survivor. Should you play as a Killer – Vecna, in this instance – it may be helpful to channel your inner Dungeon Master, in which you are the centerpiece of a most challenging encounter. The Survivors are your player characters, determined to thwart you using whatever tools they have at their disposal. This time, you’re actively rooting for a TPK...</p> <p>To succeed as Killer, you must familiarize yourself with their Power. Vecna’s <strong>Book of Vile Darkness</strong> grants him access to four deadly spells – some of which you may recognize – each one serving a different purpose. Cycle through his spell book to use <strong>Mage Hand, Flight of The Damned, Fly,</strong> and <strong>Dispelling Sphere</strong>. Use these spells to gain an advantage in a chase, damage targets from afar, gain ground, and render any magical item temporarily useless.</p> <p>Should you wish to learn more about Vecna’s Power – as well as a bit of insight into how he wound up in The Fog to begin with – head over to his official character page <a href="https://deadbydaylight.com/game/characters/the-lich-vecna/">here</a>.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_1_Vecnas_Power_3e5e8538f6.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_1_VecnasPower.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>Should you opt to play as Aestri, the first Bard to enter The Fog, your objective is to repair generators, heal and rescue your teammates, and launch a daring ballad-worthy escape. When facing The Whispered One, that might not be so simple. Luckily, you’ll be able to collect Magical Items to aid you, though only when you’re going against Vecna.</p> <p>Each Magical Item corresponds to a different spell, providing an edge whenever Vecna uses it. If fortune is smiling upon you, you may stumble upon Vecna’s treasured artifacts – the Hand and Eye of Vecna. Use these items to gain a significant advantage when the hour appears darkest.</p> <p>For more insight into Aestri’s Perks and backstory, head over to her official character page <a href="https://deadbydaylight.com/game/characters/aestri-yazar/">here</a>.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_7_Still_Sight_361a35ffb2.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_7_StillSight.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Understanding Perks</h3> <p>As an adventurer has their tools to achieve their aims, so too do the Killers and Survivors in Dead by Daylight. <strong>Perks</strong> are the Feats of the Dead by Daylight universe, providing characters with an in-game ability tailored to their preferred playstyle. Each character comes with 3 unique Perks, though they can also use any Perk in the game - provided it’s unlocked.</p> <p>Vecna’s <strong>Weave Attunement</strong> Perk allows you to track Survivors based on the location of their depleted Items. <strong>Languid Touch</strong> lures nature to your side, Exhausting Survivors whenever they alert a crow within your presence. <strong>Dark Arrogance</strong> weakens you to flashlights and Pallet stuns, but heightens your speed when Vaulting.</p> <p>Aestri’s <strong>Mirrored Illusion</strong> allows you trick pursuers with a magical image of your likeness, which you can place strategically around Generators, Totems, or Exit Gates. <strong>Bardic Inspiration</strong> invites you to let your lute do the talking, providing a magnificent melody to spur your teammates on. <strong>Still Sight</strong> provides additional information while standing still, revealing the Auras of any nearby objectives.</p> <p>It may seem overwhelming to enter The Fog as a beginner, but the best method is to simply dive in and experience everything it has to offer. We hope you enjoy your time with Dead by Daylight: Dungeons &amp; Dragons!</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/from-dnd-to-dbd-new-player-handbook/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/from-dnd-to-dbd-new-player-handbook/ Mon, 03 Jun 2024 15:14:21 GMT Updates & Releases Aestri Yazar | Dead by Daylight Survivor Lore <p>Aestri and Baermar arrived in the Free City of Greyhawk to trade songs and stories with the locals. But what the bards learned during their visit would set them on their final adventure.</p> <p>According to locals and travelers alike, a new magic unlike any other was spreading across the land. The forces of evil were disappearing from every corner of the land, leaving no trace of their malevolence. There was much rejoicing throughout Greyhawk, but Aestri and Baermar felt differently. A bard's purpose in life was to celebrate triumph over adversity. A world without evil would be a world with no new songs to sing.</p> <p>Aestri knew what she had to do. She scoped out the taverns and back alleys of the city, looking for adventurers willing to help her and Baermar find the source of this strange new magic. Many turned her down - why would she want evil to return to the land? But using her wit and charisma, Aestri was able to inspire enough townsfolk to join her in restoring the balance between good and evil.</p> <p>Together, this ragtag troupe of adventurers traveled through swamplands and under mountains. They were driven out of towns by those who believed the troupe was secretly in league with the evil that had been eradicated. And every so often, folks would be kind enough to provide food, shelter, and most importantly, information. Baermar eagerly wrote down every clue and rumor they heard and concluded that the source of this strange magic must lie near the Kingdom of Keoland, where people spoke of an ancient tower emerging from its ruins, being instantly rebuilt bigger and stronger than it was before.</p> <p>Their suspicions were confirmed as the troupe made their way south. Villagers spoke of the tower -- and its lord -- in hushed tones, but Aestri knew the place by its reputation. They were traveling to the Rotted Tower, stronghold of the Arch-Lich Vecna.</p> <p>As they drew closer and closer to the Rotted Tower, the troupe could feel evil magic in the air. They steeled themselves for a fight with Vecna, but were shocked to find the Rotted Tower was completely empty. They made their way up the spiral staircase, passing window after window of shattered stained glass, until they reached the top of the tower. Amidst the debris, Aestri found a hastily-written scroll.</p> <p>Baermar was eager to show off his proficiency in arcana. He studied the scroll and realized the words were an incantation, written phonetically. As he sang the words aloud, the tower began to rumble. Black fog crept in through the stone floor. Aestri stopped Baermar from his recitation, but it was too late. The fog took hold of the adventurers, and within moments they were gone.</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/aestri-yazar-lore/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/aestri-yazar-lore/ Fri, 31 May 2024 13:35:54 GMT Lore Vecna | Dead by Daylight Killer Lore <p>The Whispered One. Lord of the Rotted Tower. The Master of Secrets. Few dare speak his true name, for fear that he may hear—or worse.</p> <p>Even as a young wizard, Vecna’s command of magic was matched by none. While others spent decades committing to and perfecting one school of magic, he effortlessly mastered each one of them. After his mother’s execution for witchcraft, his focus became obsession as he pored the most of his study into the darkest school of magic—necromancy, the magic of life and death.</p> <p>As his power grew, so did his ambition. Over the centuries, he shed his mortal shell and ascended to lichdom. His power gave rise to a great empire, ruled over from his Rotted Tower.</p> <p>His thirst for dark knowledge to fill his Book of Vile Darkness led him to many realms and planes. But it was in his own realm one of his servants found something—a spell, perhaps, torn from an ancient tome—written in a language he had never seen. From it he could sense an incredible dark energy. Without any document of the language, he had to spend months painstakingly analyzing its syntax, its phonetics, its form. He documented every stroke of every letter, scrutinizing and theorizing on their meanings, in a massive book hidden in his chambers. When his lieutenants came to him with problems in their domain, Vecna told them to deal with it themselves. He had more important matters to attend to.</p> <p>Countless nights were spent memorizing the strange script, attempting to make it make sense. Only occasionally would he leave his keep to investigate rumors of people who had disappeared without a trace in the night. At these scenes, he could sense the same foreign magic that emanated from the torn page. He was convinced that whatever was killing these people had also written this strange script.</p> <p>He was confounded, which made him furious. The scenes, few and far between, had no pattern, no common motive. No sign of struggle, no body, and only a lingering hum of dark energy. To what end did they need these bodies?</p> <p>One dark night, he had a breakthrough: a word he had been interpreting as “dying” made more sense as “disappearing.” Perhaps these people were not being killed at all: perhaps they were being taken alive. He applied this substitution through his notes and everything seemed to fall into place.</p> <p>He copied what he had learned to a fresh piece of parchment, written phonetically. He began to speak the words aloud and the room darkened. It filled with a creeping black fog. He felt himself displacing, going somewhere else. Vecna resisted, incanting memorized spells, holding the fog at bay. But as he gazed into the darkness, he felt that alluring energy from it; a despair, an evil he could scarcely imagine. A sick curiosity overcoming him, he dropped his concentration, and let the fog take him. Whatever it was, wherever it was, he understood that the only way to harness it was to submit to it. He knew, in his cold, unbeating heart, that its dark secrets would one day be his.</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/vecna-the-lich-lore/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/vecna-the-lich-lore/ Wed, 29 May 2024 13:42:57 GMT Lore Dead By Daylight’s Cats & Dogs Collection Returns With New Outfits <p>Dead by Daylight’s Cats &amp; Dogs returns with new Outfits dedicated to our beloved animal pals, including cosmetics for Renato and Thalita Lyra, Ace Visconti, Gabriel Soma, and The Ghost Face.</p> <p>The cat’s out of the bag.

You’re loading into a Dead by Daylight Trial, determined to craft the most effective, most optimal, and dare we say the most powerful build you can fathom. Or maybe this time you’ll use Perks you never used before. Maybe you’ll even build something thematic, disregarding the meta entirely. And that’s when you run out of time, quickly resorting back to your old familiar favourites.</p> <p>Well, the time has come to throw caution to the wind and experience the Chaos Shuffle, a Modifier that constructs your build for you completely at random, drawing from a <strong>massive pool of every Perk in Dead by Daylight</strong>. What’s even better is that each Perk in the pool is Level 3, so you’ll be getting them in their most effective form.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_LTE_Bacon_Random_Perks_Key_Art_Motion_1920x1080_v3_Simplified_5110ff6870.gif" alt="DBD_LTE_Bacon_RandomPerks_KeyArt_Motion_1920x1080_v3_Simplified.gif" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p><strong>BUT WHAT DOES THIS PERK DO?</strong></p> <p>Do you need to possess an encyclopaedic knowledge of every single Dead by Daylight Perk to enjoy this Modifier? Absolutely not. Part of the fun is embracing the chaos, even if you don’t always understand the finer points of how your build is operating. Either way, we have you covered.</p> <p><strong>If your loadout happens to feature a Perk you are unfamiliar with, you can read an explanation in the match details screen during a game. Just make sure to do it in a safe place...</strong></p> <p>We hope the Chaos Shuffle leads to players getti ng a kick out of an unconventional build, discovering interesting synergies, and confounding opponents with the unexpected. You might even come out of this with a new favorite Perk...</p> <h3>CHAOTIC UNLOCKABLES</h3> <p>While your Perks might be random, the rewards you’ll unlock by playing the Chaos Shuffle Modifier are not. Indulge in the bedlam and unlock further rewards from the Gold &amp; Silk Collection, including a player Badge, a Banner, and a Charm.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_LTE_Bacon_Random_Perks_All_Rewards_VF_ca2e31aaca.png" alt="DBD_LTE-Bacon_RandomPerks_All-Rewards_VF.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>PERKS 101</h3> <p>Looking to catch up on the Dead by Daylight Perk pool?

As if their luck couldn't get any worse, Dwight, Claudette, and Feng Min have been sucked into a cursed boardgame. Don't you hate it when that happens? Now, you and a friend will need to use the power of teamwork if you want to survive and get the fog out of there. Learn to use your newfound abilities as you run, jump, and shoot your way through swarms of enemies in this chaotic game where the action never ends—even after you die.</p> <p><em>What the Fog</em> is <strong>OUT NOW</strong>, and you can get it for <strong>FREE</strong> by signing into or creating a Behaviour Account <strong>right <a href="https://account.bhvr.com/">here</a> and following the steps</strong>.

In this mode, 2 Killers will square off against 8 Survivors on a larger Map for a completely new Dead by Daylight experience. Several changes are being made to both Killer and Survivor mechanics that will make this mode feel fresh and encourage brand-new strategies and gameplay styles.</p> <p>For starters, we’re doing away with Perks for what amount to a Class system. Each of the included Killers and Survivors will have their own playstyle, so you’ll need to choose the right one for each Trial. To ramp up the action, we've also removed Hooks. When a Killer Downs a Survivor, rather than bringing them to a Hook, they’ll be able to send them right to a Cage. Getting sent to a Cage still counts as a Hook State, meaning 3 Cages and you’re out of the game.</p> <p>More info on the 2v8 Game Mode will be shared in a future livestream in July.</p> <p>Click <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/GIwtIGmevQE?si=wWlBVblwYFLlRsP4&amp;t=2344">here</a> to jump directly to the Year 9 Roadmap segment of the broadcast for a more in-depth look!</p> <h2>Gameplay Improvements</h2> <p>If the 2v8 Game Mode wasn’t enough, Senior Product Manager Derrick shared some exciting live balance updates and features that are coming soon.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIwtIGmevQE&amp;t=4383s">Cross Progression</a></strong> was announced and is slated for release later this summer.

Of rushing water flooding her lungs. Countless dances with death, and so many more to come.</p> <p>Courageous and resourceful, Lara Croft has braved life-threatening expeditions, amassing battle scars and adrenaline-fueled memories. Whether facing the perils of the supernatural or the extremes of nature, Lara has proven herself to be among gaming’s most formidable – <em>and honorable</em> – heroes.</p> <p>Now, swept into The Fog and faced with one of her darkest adventures yet, Lara’s survivalist spirit will be pushed to the extreme. Instead of seeking artifacts in long lost tombs, she must now rely on a group of fellow survivors, clinging desperately to a common goal, no matter hopeless things may seem."</p> <p>In life-or-death situations, a pallet or window can prove as valuable as any ancient treasure. There’s no doubt Lara’s climbing experience will prove beneficial, providing a critical burst of speed when a chase appears dire.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_1_S43_P01_Finesse_5edad5d5ca.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_1_S43P01-Finesse.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>Her memories of Yamatai may fade with time, overtaken by nightmarish black fog. Yet the lessons she learned will remain ingrained, even in the face of endless terror. While someone with lesser resolve might scream, Lara understands the severity of that reaction, instead using it as an opportunity to regroup and scout her enemies.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_2_S43_P02_Hardened_1f2fd8366b.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_2_S43P02-Hardened.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>You can take the raider out of the tomb, but the minute an opened treasure chest crosses her path, Lara Croft’s instinct never fails to kick in. Seek treasure and prosper.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_3_S43_P03_Specialist_33ebca8591.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_3_S43P03-Specialist.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>Some adventures propel adrenaline.

This year’s Masquerade marks the arrival of the host du jour, a figure as enigmatic as she is eccentric, as gleefully unhinged as the most exhilarating nightmare. Though she goes by many names, you will come to know her primarily as <strong>Tryks</strong>. In fact, she happens to play a central role in this year’s gameplay event. On that note...</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_Twisted_Masquerade_Web_PR_Screenshots_8_5_PP_1920x1080_VF_5d8884127f.png" alt="DBD_TwistedMasquerade_WebPRScreenshots_8.5_PP_1920x1080_VF.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>INVITING TROUBLE</h3> <p>This Twisted Masquerade, Invitations are the name of the game.

Literally – a <em>wild</em> card courtesy of Tryks, who isn’t exactly known for playing with a full deck.</p> <p>At the beginning of every Trial a set of 5 cards will be randomly selected to impact the match. Once revealed, they will activate in order, with the first card activating at the beginning of the Trial.</p> <p>Once the Trial begins, players will be able to activate the next card by collectively earning points through in-game actions like Hooking a Survivor for the first time or finishing a Generators. After 2 points, a new card will Activate, replacing the previous one.</p> <p>What do the cards do, you ask?</p> <p><strong>You're Invited</strong> - All players instantly receive a charged Invitation.<br> <strong>No Invite For You!</strong> - All players instantly lose an Invitation.<br> <strong>Peekaboo!</strong> - All players have their Aura briefly revealed.<br> <strong>Move It Or Lose It!</strong> - All players gain a Haste bonus for a duration.<br> <strong>Heal You, Expose You!</strong> - All injured Survivors are healed and immediately Exposed.<br> <strong>Wait, Where...?</strong> - Survivors leave no Scratch Marks and the Killer is Undetectable.<br> <strong>Party Totem!</strong> - All Dull Totems are revealed and transform to Anniversary Totems, which remain until the next card.<br> <strong>Party Chest!</strong> - All unopen Chests become Anniversary Chests.<br> <strong>Zzl Zilch!</strong> - Nothing happens.</p> <h3>EVENT TOME &amp; UNLOCKABLES</h3> <p>The Twisted Masquerade introduces a new Event Tome, featuring 3 levels of Challenges and 3 Community Challenges to complete.

In the corner of a tavern comes whispers of garments. Some bold and whimsical, others as ominous as the Underdark itself.</p> <h3>The Lich – Whispered One – Very Rare</h3> <p>Only one deity was powerful enough to successfully invade the floating city of Sigil. His actions caused powerful disruptions that reverberated through the multiverse.</p> <h3>Aestri Yazar – Tale From The Sea – Very Rare</h3> <p>Following a description found on a scroll, Aestri’s treasure hunt led her to a lone island. Buried beneath the shore was what she searched for, a silver seashell that sang a song about a vast ocean kingdom. She transcribed the song, and buried the seashell, leaving it for another adventurer to find.</p> <h3>Baermar Uraz – Roadside Ambush – Very Rare</h3> <p>Baermar sensed something on the road ahead, he readied himself for a fight. When bandits appeared from behind the trees, he held his lute and strummed a soothing tune. One after another, they fell asleep, and he continued on his path.</p> <p>“As many of us were huge fans, collaborating with Dungeons &amp; Dragons has been an amazing experience,” says Kirby Taylor, Product Manager on Dead by Daylight. “We wanted to pay tribute to an iconic Vecna moment with this Outfit, and then with our original Bards, we wanted to continue incorporating as many D&amp;D elements as possible. We know creating your character is super important, so we gave them unique, deeper customization options when mixing and matching Cosmetics.”</p> <h2>LOOT, YOU SAY?</h2> <p>A ranger, a sorceress, a barbarian, a rogue, and a fighter walk into a tavern...</p> <p>The Dungeons &amp; Dragons Collection brings new Outfits for Meg Thomas, Jeff Johanesen, Mikaela Reid, The Legion (Susie), and The Knight. For anyone who ever wondered which D&amp;D classes our Dead by Daylight characters would choose, this one is for you.</p> <h3>Meg Thomas – Sidetrack Archer – Very Rare</h3> <p>While they were exploring a magical forest, the DM warned the party about an approaching monster. As a Ranger, she felt responsible for their safety. She rolled the d20 and held her breath until the die came to a stop. The roll was successful. She distracted the monster and helped her friends. Meg sat back in her chair and let out a deep sigh of relief.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Meg_a3356ebcc4.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_Meg.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Mikaela Reid – Mystical Origins – Very Rare</h3> <p>Mikaela introduced her character as they began their new campaign.</p> <p>Every night, she watched the sea. One night, from the calm water emerged a dark figure with skin that reflected the light of the moon. Her strength faded as she fainted, clutching her heart. When she awoke, she could feel her heart overflowing with untamed magic that could bring both wonder and terror.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Mikaela_76a3f8da41.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_Mikaela.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Jeff Johansen – Reluctant Warrior – Very Rare</h3> <p>Jeff hoped to meet new people when he signed up to play the game. But looking at his character sheet, he worried he would embarrass himself in front of everyone.</p> <p>He chose a class that could express pain through fury, like he did through music. When he accidentally led his party to a trap, and a solid stone door came down behind him, he crashed through the door, shattering it with a single strike. It was a moment his new friends talked about even after the game was over.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Jeff_79a7d3e75c.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_Jeff.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>The Legion (Susie) – Backstabber – Very Rare</h3> <p>Susie approached the evil lord from behind and rolled to land the killing blow. It was a critical fail. Susie's rogue took damage while Joey's fighter killed the lord with a single hit.</p> <p>Joey wouldn't stop gloating about Susie's failure. Susie decided to put Joey in his place, attacking his fighter. Susie's rogue plunged the knife into his fighter and kicked him in the shin for good measure.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_Legion_Susie_16a4792dae.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_Legion_Susie.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>The Knight – Menacing Knight – Very Rare</h3> <p>The thieves heard the story of an ancient relic hidden in a cave. They came across a towering knight, with eyes that glowed red like fire in the dark of the knight. It appeared to be more monster than man. Only the thuds of their severed bodies hitting the ground echoed in the mountain pass.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Dn_D_The_Knight_837257c348.png" alt="ConceptArt_DnD_TheKnight.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>“When creating this Collection, we really tried to get into the heads of our Survivors and Killers to see how they might approach a Campaign," continues Kirby Taylor. “For Survivors, we imagined how they would create their characters and matched them with a D&amp;D class. For Killers, we explored some iconic enemies that many adventuring parties have faced. The team really had a blast exploring the ideas and inspirations for these Outfits, so don’t be surprised if we see more additions to this Collection in the future!”</p> <p>Gather your party and ready those D20s, for the Dungeon &amp; Dragons Collection is available now in the Dead by Daylight Store.</p> <p>See you in The Fog,</p> <p>The Dead by Daylight Team</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dungeons-and-dragons-collection/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/dungeons-and-dragons-collection/ Mon, 03 Jun 2024 15:14:50 GMT Cosmetics From D&D to DbD: A New Player’s Handbook <p>Venturing into the dark world of Dead by Daylight can feel intimidating, but every journey must begin with a single footstep – even if unnaturally thick Fog stands in your path.</p> <p>So where should one begin this malevolent quest? A simple answer would be to begin with <strong>Dead by Daylight: Dungeons &amp; Dragons</strong>, which offers Vecna as a Killer and Bard, Aestri Yazar as a Survivor.</p> <p>Think of each role as a class, with each one holding oppositional ideals. A <strong>Killer</strong> strives to sacrifice four Survivors, a ritual that involves placing them on a Hook as an offering to an eldritch being of incomprehensible power known as <strong>The Entity</strong>. A Survivor strives to elude said Killer, assist their team in repairing five Generators to power up the Exit Gates, and escape with their life intact. They can use the environment to either hide from or evade the Killer by vaulting through windows or knocking down wooden pallets to temporarily block their path.</p> <p>You even net yourself some experience points along the way.</p> <h3>Killer or Survivor?</h3> <p>Not unlike the task of selecting a D&amp;D class, you must choose whether to play a Trial as a Killer or a Survivor. Should you play as a Killer – Vecna, in this instance – it may be helpful to channel your inner Dungeon Master, in which you are the centerpiece of a most challenging encounter. The Survivors are your player characters, determined to thwart you using whatever tools they have at their disposal. This time, you’re actively rooting for a TPK...</p> <p>To succeed as Killer, you must familiarize yourself with their Power. Vecna’s <strong>Book of Vile Darkness</strong> grants him access to four deadly spells – some of which you may recognize – each one serving a different purpose. Cycle through his spell book to use <strong>Mage Hand, Flight of The Damned, Fly,</strong> and <strong>Dispelling Sphere</strong>. Use these spells to gain an advantage in a chase, damage targets from afar, gain ground, and render any magical item temporarily useless.</p> <p>Should you wish to learn more about Vecna’s Power – as well as a bit of insight into how he wound up in The Fog to begin with – head over to his official character page <a href="https://deadbydaylight.com/game/characters/the-lich-vecna/">here</a>.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_1_Vecnas_Power_3e5e8538f6.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_1_VecnasPower.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p>Should you opt to play as Aestri, the first Bard to enter The Fog, your objective is to repair generators, heal and rescue your teammates, and launch a daring ballad-worthy escape. When facing The Whispered One, that might not be so simple. Luckily, you’ll be able to collect Magical Items to aid you, though only when you’re going against Vecna.</p> <p>Each Magical Item corresponds to a different spell, providing an edge whenever Vecna uses it. If fortune is smiling upon you, you may stumble upon Vecna’s treasured artifacts – the Hand and Eye of Vecna. Use these items to gain a significant advantage when the hour appears darkest.</p> <p>For more insight into Aestri’s Perks and backstory, head over to her official character page <a href="https://deadbydaylight.com/game/characters/aestri-yazar/">here</a>.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/WEB_Screenshot_7_Still_Sight_361a35ffb2.png" alt="WEB_Screenshot_7_StillSight.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Understanding Perks</h3> <p>As an adventurer has their tools to achieve their aims, so too do the Killers and Survivors in Dead by Daylight. <strong>Perks</strong> are the Feats of the Dead by Daylight universe, providing characters with an in-game ability tailored to their preferred playstyle. Each character comes with 3 unique Perks, though they can also use any Perk in the game - provided it’s unlocked.</p> <p>Vecna’s <strong>Weave Attunement</strong> Perk allows you to track Survivors based on the location of their depleted Items. <strong>Languid Touch</strong> lures nature to your side, Exhausting Survivors whenever they alert a crow within your presence. <strong>Dark Arrogance</strong> weakens you to flashlights and Pallet stuns, but heightens your speed when Vaulting.</p> <p>Aestri’s <strong>Mirrored Illusion</strong> allows you trick pursuers with a magical image of your likeness, which you can place strategically around Generators, Totems, or Exit Gates. <strong>Bardic Inspiration</strong> invites you to let your lute do the talking, providing a magnificent melody to spur your teammates on. <strong>Still Sight</strong> provides additional information while standing still, revealing the Auras of any nearby objectives.</p> <p>It may seem overwhelming to enter The Fog as a beginner, but the best method is to simply dive in and experience everything it has to offer. We hope you enjoy your time with Dead by Daylight: Dungeons &amp; Dragons!</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/from-dnd-to-dbd-new-player-handbook/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/from-dnd-to-dbd-new-player-handbook/ Mon, 03 Jun 2024 15:14:21 GMT Updates & Releases Aestri Yazar | Dead by Daylight Survivor Lore <p>Aestri and Baermar arrived in the Free City of Greyhawk to trade songs and stories with the locals. But what the bards learned during their visit would set them on their final adventure.</p> <p>According to locals and travelers alike, a new magic unlike any other was spreading across the land. The forces of evil were disappearing from every corner of the land, leaving no trace of their malevolence. There was much rejoicing throughout Greyhawk, but Aestri and Baermar felt differently. A bard's purpose in life was to celebrate triumph over adversity. A world without evil would be a world with no new songs to sing.</p> <p>Aestri knew what she had to do. She scoped out the taverns and back alleys of the city, looking for adventurers willing to help her and Baermar find the source of this strange new magic. Many turned her down - why would she want evil to return to the land? But using her wit and charisma, Aestri was able to inspire enough townsfolk to join her in restoring the balance between good and evil.</p> <p>Together, this ragtag troupe of adventurers traveled through swamplands and under mountains. They were driven out of towns by those who believed the troupe was secretly in league with the evil that had been eradicated. And every so often, folks would be kind enough to provide food, shelter, and most importantly, information. Baermar eagerly wrote down every clue and rumor they heard and concluded that the source of this strange magic must lie near the Kingdom of Keoland, where people spoke of an ancient tower emerging from its ruins, being instantly rebuilt bigger and stronger than it was before.</p> <p>Their suspicions were confirmed as the troupe made their way south. Villagers spoke of the tower -- and its lord -- in hushed tones, but Aestri knew the place by its reputation. They were traveling to the Rotted Tower, stronghold of the Arch-Lich Vecna.</p> <p>As they drew closer and closer to the Rotted Tower, the troupe could feel evil magic in the air. They steeled themselves for a fight with Vecna, but were shocked to find the Rotted Tower was completely empty. They made their way up the spiral staircase, passing window after window of shattered stained glass, until they reached the top of the tower. Amidst the debris, Aestri found a hastily-written scroll.</p> <p>Baermar was eager to show off his proficiency in arcana. He studied the scroll and realized the words were an incantation, written phonetically. As he sang the words aloud, the tower began to rumble. Black fog crept in through the stone floor. Aestri stopped Baermar from his recitation, but it was too late. The fog took hold of the adventurers, and within moments they were gone.</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/aestri-yazar-lore/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/aestri-yazar-lore/ Fri, 31 May 2024 13:35:54 GMT Lore Vecna | Dead by Daylight Killer Lore <p>The Whispered One. Lord of the Rotted Tower. The Master of Secrets. Few dare speak his true name, for fear that he may hear—or worse.</p> <p>Even as a young wizard, Vecna’s command of magic was matched by none. While others spent decades committing to and perfecting one school of magic, he effortlessly mastered each one of them. After his mother’s execution for witchcraft, his focus became obsession as he pored the most of his study into the darkest school of magic—necromancy, the magic of life and death.</p> <p>As his power grew, so did his ambition. Over the centuries, he shed his mortal shell and ascended to lichdom. His power gave rise to a great empire, ruled over from his Rotted Tower.</p> <p>His thirst for dark knowledge to fill his Book of Vile Darkness led him to many realms and planes. But it was in his own realm one of his servants found something—a spell, perhaps, torn from an ancient tome—written in a language he had never seen. From it he could sense an incredible dark energy. Without any document of the language, he had to spend months painstakingly analyzing its syntax, its phonetics, its form. He documented every stroke of every letter, scrutinizing and theorizing on their meanings, in a massive book hidden in his chambers. When his lieutenants came to him with problems in their domain, Vecna told them to deal with it themselves. He had more important matters to attend to.</p> <p>Countless nights were spent memorizing the strange script, attempting to make it make sense. Only occasionally would he leave his keep to investigate rumors of people who had disappeared without a trace in the night. At these scenes, he could sense the same foreign magic that emanated from the torn page. He was convinced that whatever was killing these people had also written this strange script.</p> <p>He was confounded, which made him furious. The scenes, few and far between, had no pattern, no common motive. No sign of struggle, no body, and only a lingering hum of dark energy. To what end did they need these bodies?</p> <p>One dark night, he had a breakthrough: a word he had been interpreting as “dying” made more sense as “disappearing.” Perhaps these people were not being killed at all: perhaps they were being taken alive. He applied this substitution through his notes and everything seemed to fall into place.</p> <p>He copied what he had learned to a fresh piece of parchment, written phonetically. He began to speak the words aloud and the room darkened. It filled with a creeping black fog. He felt himself displacing, going somewhere else. Vecna resisted, incanting memorized spells, holding the fog at bay. But as he gazed into the darkness, he felt that alluring energy from it; a despair, an evil he could scarcely imagine. A sick curiosity overcoming him, he dropped his concentration, and let the fog take him. Whatever it was, wherever it was, he understood that the only way to harness it was to submit to it. He knew, in his cold, unbeating heart, that its dark secrets would one day be his.</p> https://deadbydaylight.com/news/vecna-the-lich-lore/ https://deadbydaylight.com/news/vecna-the-lich-lore/ Wed, 29 May 2024 13:42:57 GMT Lore Dead By Daylight’s Cats & Dogs Collection Returns With New Outfits <p>Dead by Daylight’s Cats &amp; Dogs returns with new Outfits dedicated to our beloved animal pals, including cosmetics for Renato and Thalita Lyra, Ace Visconti, Gabriel Soma, and The Ghost Face.</p> <p>The cat’s out of the bag.

Even for those trapped within The Fog, memories of the pets they left behind gave them a reason to keep going.</p> <h3>Thalita Lyra – All Tangled Up – Rare</h3> <p>After her cat ruined a kite's spool during the night, Renato gave her this custom shirt as a birthday gift.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Cats_and_Dogs_Thalita_c2bbc8d39b.png" alt="ConceptArt_Cats&amp;Dogs_Thalita.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Renato Lyra – Take To The Skies – Rare</h3> <p>Thalita printed a custom sweater for her brother, immortalizing the time a stray dog chased his kite during a competition.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Cats_and_Dogs_Renato_3aa0c42c7a.png" alt="ConceptArt_Cats&amp;Dogs_Renato.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Ace Visconti – Table Scraps – Rare</h3> <p>Those endless poker tournaments required dogged determination.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/Concept_Art_Cats_and_Dogs_Ace_92c9f68100.png" alt="ConceptArt_Cats&amp;Dogs_Ace.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>Gabriel Soma – Star-Kitty – Rare</h3> <p>He remembered his parents giving him the sweater before his voyage.

You’re loading into a Dead by Daylight Trial, determined to craft the most effective, most optimal, and dare we say the most powerful build you can fathom. Or maybe this time you’ll use Perks you never used before. Maybe you’ll even build something thematic, disregarding the meta entirely. And that’s when you run out of time, quickly resorting back to your old familiar favourites.</p> <p>Well, the time has come to throw caution to the wind and experience the Chaos Shuffle, a Modifier that constructs your build for you completely at random, drawing from a <strong>massive pool of every Perk in Dead by Daylight</strong>. What’s even better is that each Perk in the pool is Level 3, so you’ll be getting them in their most effective form.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_LTE_Bacon_Random_Perks_Key_Art_Motion_1920x1080_v3_Simplified_5110ff6870.gif" alt="DBD_LTE_Bacon_RandomPerks_KeyArt_Motion_1920x1080_v3_Simplified.gif" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <p><strong>BUT WHAT DOES THIS PERK DO?</strong></p> <p>Do you need to possess an encyclopaedic knowledge of every single Dead by Daylight Perk to enjoy this Modifier? Absolutely not. Part of the fun is embracing the chaos, even if you don’t always understand the finer points of how your build is operating. Either way, we have you covered.</p> <p><strong>If your loadout happens to feature a Perk you are unfamiliar with, you can read an explanation in the match details screen during a game. Just make sure to do it in a safe place...</strong></p> <p>We hope the Chaos Shuffle leads to players getti ng a kick out of an unconventional build, discovering interesting synergies, and confounding opponents with the unexpected. You might even come out of this with a new favorite Perk...</p> <h3>CHAOTIC UNLOCKABLES</h3> <p>While your Perks might be random, the rewards you’ll unlock by playing the Chaos Shuffle Modifier are not. Indulge in the bedlam and unlock further rewards from the Gold &amp; Silk Collection, including a player Badge, a Banner, and a Charm.</p> <p><img src="https://assets.deadbydaylight.com/DBD_LTE_Bacon_Random_Perks_All_Rewards_VF_ca2e31aaca.png" alt="DBD_LTE-Bacon_RandomPerks_All-Rewards_VF.png" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></p> <h3>PERKS 101</h3> <p>Looking to catch up on the Dead by Daylight Perk pool?

In this mode, 2 Killers will square off against 8 Survivors on a larger Map for a completely new Dead by Daylight experience. Several changes are being made to both Killer and Survivor mechanics that will make this mode feel fresh and encourage brand-new strategies and gameplay styles.</p> <p>For starters, we’re doing away with Perks for what amount to a Class system. Each of the included Killers and Survivors will have their own playstyle, so you’ll need to choose the right one for each Trial. To ramp up the action, we've also removed Hooks. When a Killer Downs a Survivor, rather than bringing them to a Hook, they’ll be able to send them right to a Cage. Getting sent to a Cage still counts as a Hook State, meaning 3 Cages and you’re out of the game.</p> <p>More info on the 2v8 Game Mode will be shared in a future livestream in July.</p> <p>Click <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/GIwtIGmevQE?si=wWlBVblwYFLlRsP4&amp;t=2344">here</a> to jump directly to the Year 9 Roadmap segment of the broadcast for a more in-depth look!</p> <h2>Gameplay Improvements</h2> <p>If the 2v8 Game Mode wasn’t enough, Senior Product Manager Derrick shared some exciting live balance updates and features that are coming soon.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIwtIGmevQE&amp;t=4383s">Cross Progression</a></strong> was announced and is slated for release later this summer. Players will soon be able to carry over their progress, unlocks, and more across platforms.</p> <p>A new <strong>Challenge System</strong> was also revealed, which will give players new ways to earn rewards outside of Tomes and Archives.</p> <p>To help stay on top of everything happening in The Fog, we’ll also be making some improvements to our <strong>Messaging system</strong>, which will help inform players on the latest news, patch notes and rewards, with less intrusive pop-ups.</p> <p>What better way to end things off than with a <strong>Finisher Mori</strong>.
