Dead by Daylight is an asymmetric multiplayer survival-horror game developed and published by Behaviour Interactive. Set in the nightmarish fog realm governed by the malevolent cosmic Entity, four Survivors must repair five generators scattered across an eerie map to power exit gates and escape, while a solitary Killer stalks, captures, and sacrifices them on sacrificial meat hooks.
The game features an asymmetrical perspective: Survivors play in third-person view for broader situational awareness and pallet looping tactics, whereas Killers operate in first-person view with powerful tracking perks and supernatural offensive powers. Dead by Daylight features legendary horror crossover icons including Michael Myers, Ghost Face, Freddy Krueger, and Resident Evil's Nemesis alongside original horrific creations.
With an ever-expanding Bloodweb progression web, deep perk build synergies, and continuous competitive balancing, Dead by Daylight remains the undisputed king of asymmetric multiplayer horror.
