That’s right – Freddy Krueger is getting a rework, and we’ve got you covered with everything to know about what’s coming. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11814497/ccb9afae95bcdf1633b833f2691947ba157d5ed4.png The Nightmare – Freddy Krueger himself – is one of horror’s most iconic slashers. While he has proven himself to be a formidable foe for newer players, he’s begun to feel a little left behind in Dead by Daylight’s current landscape. We’re excited to help players rediscover the macabre joy of donning into the signature sweater and wreaking havoc like only Freddy can. We’ve made several adjustments to his Power, which should help Freddy feel like the Dream Demon he was always destined to be. Our philosophy was to make The Dream World’s presence affect Survivors even when they’re awake, giving The Nightmare a consistently threatening edge w...

by editor@pcgamesn.com

When is the Dead by Daylight Bone Chill event 2024? These days, it feels like one DBD event is barely finished before the next begins - but we're not complaining. Fresh out of the Haunted by Daylight Halloween event and the latest 2v8 limited-time mode, it's time to ready up for the Bone Chill winter event. Now in its fourth year, Bone Chill returns to the horror game with some familiar features, alongside brand-new mechanics. A new Event Tome gives you the chance to pick up new wintry Dead by Daylight cosmetics, both DBD killers and survivors can jump into Snowmen to trick the enemy, and a brand-new map debuts with the launch of the event.

The Doomed Course Chapter is now available on Steam!

by CatBHVR

Dead by Daylight: Doomed Course includes a new Killer, The Houndmaster, and new Survivor, Taurie Cain. Purchasing this add-on unlocks 2 exclusive Cosmetics: The Houndmaster - Titanium Skull & Taurie Cain - Gold Tier. The new Killer is The Houndmaster. Cast adrift by a horrific tragedy, Portia Maye arose from the blood with renewed purpose: to inflict unspeakable pain on those who tore her family apart. With her loyal dog forever at her side, her insatiable lust for violence runs deeper than the darkest ocean trench. The new Survivor is Taurie Cain. Few react to entering The Entity’s Realm with a smile, but Taurie Cain is not like most Survivors. Raised in the Black Talon, her fascination with eldritch darkness plunged her headlong into The Fog. Despite everything, however, her moral compass remains uncorrupted – for the most part.
