The “Stranger Things” Update for ‘Dead by Daylight’ is Now Live!

After what seems like months (well, it has) for Behaviour Interactive’s Dead By Daylight to finally get that crossover with Stranger Things, that day has arrived. The Demogorgon, alongside new Survivors, Nancy Wheeler and Steve Harrington, are available as DLC right now.

In the new update, The Demogorgon can use portals to the Upside-Down to teleport around, and has a suite of perks relating to the generators survivors need to repair to escape. When a survivor is downed by the Demogorgon, a generator explodes. Survivors repairing them can suffer from exhaustion, and when one is repaired nearby windows become overgrown with Upside-Down goo and can’t be climbed through.

As for the Survivors, Nancy’s ability involves her trail of “scratch marks” being invisible when she’s at full health, she can heal by climbing into a locker after cleansing a totem, and any generator she’s repairing is visible to other survivors. If Steve unhooks another survivor they don’t leave a blood trail, and if someone attempts to unhook him the struggle timer pauses for a moment. He also has the ability to self-heal after being unhooked.

Dead By Daylight is available now for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The Nintendo Switch version will be available September 24th.
