Leatherface Brings the Slaughter to ‘Dead by Daylight Mobile’ Today
It’s not the 4th anniversary surprise (that comes on May 26th), but for Dead by Daylight Mobile users, it’s a welcome addition. Behaviour Interactive today announced that not only has the iOS and Android version of their asymmetric multiplayer game reached more than 3 million downloads worldwide just one month after launch, but that The Cannibal, aka Leatherface, is now a playable character for mobile players.
As with his console and PC version, Leatherface comes with three unique perks, and is armed with his sledgehammer and trusty chainsaw. This is all part of the new update for the mobile version, which includes the progression system of characters now being tied to individual character XP versus the Bloodweb. Individual character XP can be earned by playing the character and receiving emblems for each played game.
The update also introduces a new “Treacherous Waters Collection” outfit that players will be able to unlock with in-game currency. Lastly, the game will receive bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements.
Dead by Daylight is also available on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.
While not quite Snakes on a Plane or Red Eye, co-developers Liquid Static Studio and Snapping Turtle have something darker in mind with their upcoming job-sim horror game, Night Plane. Coming to Steam later this year, the game has you doing the expected work as a flight attendant, but with the added bonus of trying to find demons hiding amongst the passengers.
It’s 1999, and it’s your first day on the job. You must do the usual things as a flight attendant: welcoming passengers aboard, check tickets, and attend to their needs. However, shape-shifting entities may attempt to come aboard disguised as humans. So, your additional job in Night Plane is to question passengers, and find a way to remove any unauthorized non-human visitors from the plane.
That also leads to assisting passengers in unorthodox ways inside the plane, outside the plane, and in places not listed in your training manual. To make things even more complicated, you’ll need to make tough decisions with irreversible consequences. Naturally, the company will not be held accountable for any mistakes you make. You live with them.
Oh, and seeing as this is a plane, you may encounter some turbulence while in flight, along with power failures, lightning strikes and more. All of which, including your decisions, will lead to one of the multiple endings in Night Plane.
If you wish to get in on the fun prior to the game’s release, you can sign up for the playtest via the Steam page.
