About
10 years of horror. 10 years of jump scares and close calls. 10 years of brutal sacrifices and thrilling escapes.
Trapped forever in a realm of eldritch evil where even death is not an escape, four determined Survivors face a bloodthirsty Killer in a vicious game of nerve and wits. Pick a side and step into a world of tension and terror with horror gaming's best asymmetrical multiplayer.
Survivors play in third-person and have the advantage of better situational awareness. The Killer plays in first-person and is more focused on their prey.
The Survivors' goal in each encounter is to escape the Killing Ground without getting caught by the Killer - something that sounds easier than it is, especially when the environment changes every time you play.
• Survive Together… Or Not - Survivors can either cooperate with the others or be selfish. Your chance of survival will vary depending on whether you work together as a team or if you go at it alone. Will you be able to outwit the Killer and escape their Killing Ground?
• Where Am I? - Each level is procedurally generated, so you’ll never know what to expect. Random spawn points mean you will never feel safe as the world and its danger change every time you play.
• A Feast for Killers - Dead by Daylight draws from all corners of the horror world. As a Killer you can play as anything from a powerful Slasher to terrifying paranormal entities. Familiarize yourself with your Killing Grounds and master each Killer’s unique power to be able to hunt, catch and sacrifice your victims.
• Deeper and Deeper - Each Killer and Survivor has their own deep progression system and plenty of unlockables that can be customized to fit your own personal strategy. Experience, skills and understanding of the environment are key to being able to hunt or outwit the Killer.
• Real People, Real Fear - The procedural levels and real human reactions to pure horror makes each game session an unexpected scenario. You will never be able to tell how it’s going to turn out. Ambience, music, and chilling environments combine into a terrifying experience. With enough time, you might even discover what’s hiding in the fog.

bueno
Dead by Daylight Review Dead by Daylight can be a really fun game, especially with friends, but the balance is one of its biggest problems. Right now, the game often feels killer-sided, especially in solo queue. Many killers have extremely strong powers, while survivors have to rely heavily on teamwork. If your teammates make mistakes, there's often very little you can do to recover. Solo queue can feel frustrating because there is almost no communication, while killers don't have to depend on anyone else. The developers keep adding new perks and killers, but the balance between both sides still doesn't feel consistent. Some matches are exciting and close, but many games feel decided very early. That said, Dead by Daylight has a unique concept, a huge roster of licensed horror characters, and plenty of replay value. If you're playing with friends, the experience is much better. However, if you're mainly a solo survivor player, be prepared for a lot of frustrating matches. Sometimes you have the Hitbox of an Tank und the Killer gets you from a Mile away and any Hit connects I would Like a Voice Chat in this Game (Russian People not allowed)
Good fun with friends as Survivor, good fun solo as killer. Definitely worth it!
Дбд настолько страшная, что после нее я не смогла уснуть до 6 утра. Но ничего страшного, ведь в 7 мне уже надо было вставать в школу(((
good game
Really fun once you start getting a hold of this game. New players should focus on enjoying the match instead of winning... and yea... Play whatever Killer or Survivor you like... perks matter yes.. but don't follow meta
önceden de sevdiğim bir oyundu ama yeni satın alabilme fırsatım oldu güzel oyun :)
