New ‘Resident Evil’ Content Teased For ‘Dead by Daylight’ [Video]
In addition to revealing the new “Roots of Dread” chapter for Dead by Daylight earlier today, Behaviour Interactive also dropped a little teaser at the end of their stream that sees them return to the well for more Resident Evil-related content, which will have “even more characters from the legendary horror franchise.”
Dubbed “Project W”, the teaser doesn’t reveal exactly who will be pulled from Resident Evil for Dead by Daylight, but one initially would assume that it involves Albert Wesker. However, we don’t actually see any clear evidence of Wesker in the teaser. The content is due out “before the end of 2022”, so we’ll have to patiently wait until the reveal (or until dataminers get to work).
As for the rest of the sixth anniversary stream, fans can expect plenty of new content for Dead by Daylight quite soon, including the aforementioned Roots of Dread. The new content is an original storyline for the game that brings with it a new Killer in the form of The Dredge, as well as new Survivor, Haddie Kaur. Roots of Dread will launch on Tuesday, June 7 across all consoles and PC.

Retroware surprised everyone last year with the announcement that they’re working on a throwback beat-’em-up based on the Toxic Crusaders cartoon. Grab your mop and get ready: the side-scrolling beat ’em up game is heading our way later this year.
Toxic Crusaders is now available to preorder on Steam, with the game set for Fall 2024 release. Exact date TBA.
Developer and publisher Retroware has teamed up with Troma Entertainment to bring the characters from the 1991 cartoon “Toxic Crusaders” back, for an all-new, all-action beat ’em up for one to four players.
In the game, “When the evil Dr. Killemoff attacks, only one team of hideously deformed creatures of superhuman size and strength stands between him and his plans for global pollution: the Toxic Crusaders, Earth’s last, greatest and ugliest hope for survival! Battle across seven disgusting levels rendered in vibrant pixel art as you defend Tromaville from hordes of Radiation Rangers, mutated thugs and zombie chickens. The odds might be stacked against you but with awesome powers, a winning personality, and up to four-players on your side, the Smogulan Empire’s days are numbered!
“Choose from seven playable characters, including Toxie, No-Zone, Junkyard, Major Disaster, and Headbanger – plus, for the first time, play as Toxie’s musically “gifted” girlfriend Yvonne, and the mother of all mothers, Mrs. Junko, Toxie’s mom!”
Considering this is set in Tromaville, it’s a safe bet that we’ll see more Troma characters beyond the Crusaders here. Toxic Crusaders will also feature fully voice-acted motion comic cutscenes, featuring voice acting by TeamFourStar, industry veterans, and of course, Troma actors.
Check out the gameplay demo below for a closer look at the Toxic Crusaders in action.
Toxic Crusaders is coming soon to Xbox Series X + S, Playstation 4 + 5, Steam, Nintendo Switch, and the Epic Games Store. But you can wishlist on Steam in the meantime.
