Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer (4vs1) horror game where one player takes on the role of the savage Killer, and the other four players play as Survivors, trying to escape the Killer and avoid being caught, tortured and killed.

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.

The game features procedurally generated levels, so players never experience a repetitive map. Be the killer and massacre all your victims before they escape, by using your speed and power in 1st person, or team up with your friends to try and outwit the killer with your superior awareness and agility in a 3rd person's view as he hunts you through a nightmare world.

Players take on the role of both killer and survivors in a deadly game of cat and mouse. It’s a Mature Gamer take on the thrills of Hide & Seek!

Tomb Raider’s Lara Croft joins the gruesome world of Dead by Daylight as its newest Survivor. 

Lara Croft has survived expeditions few would dare attempt, locked eyes with death and lived to tell the tale… Now, she must face yet again a dark adventure shrouded in Fog. 

Players keen on putting Lara’s survival skills to the test can do so right now in the limited-time public test-build on Steam ahead of the Dead by Daylight: Tomb Raider Chapter official launch on July 16. 

While Dead by Daylight marks her first foray into the horror genre, Lara Croft herself is no stranger to terrifying encounters. From claustrophobic tunnels, to mysterious tombs, to ravenous beasts, Lara has narrowly escaped the jaws of death on countless occasions. Each experience has shaped her, bestowing upon her a wealth of survival expertise and ancient knowledge along the way. 

Trapped in the bleak Realm of the Entity, players will now be able to step into Lara’s boots as she seeks the greatest treasure of all: a way to escape. 

While stripped of her trusty bow and pistols, her greatest weapons remain intact. Her unwavering tenacity, wealth of survival expertise, and bravery are represented with 3 unique Perks to balance the scales in her favor. 

With her experiences and skillset, Lara Croft perfectly embodies the characteristics needed to survive in The Fog and is right at home in the world of Dead by Daylight alongside other iconic characters. Though she may be well-prepared for the Trials ahead, in the Entity’s twisted world, the future is never promised.

Behaviour has implemented Cross-Play across PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch, allowing players on console and PC to face trials together, while Cross-Friends will let you create a friends list that is cross-platform and enjoy an unprecedented multiplayer experience in their favorite multiplayer horror game.  

Dead by Daylight is currently available on Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
