‘Stranger Things’ Chapter Returns to ‘Dead by Daylight’ Today! [Trailer]
Two years after the Stranger Things Chapter for Dead by Daylight was sadly removed, and coming at the conclusion of this year’s Haunted by Daylight event, Behaviour Interactive has announced that it’s back! In celebration of Stranger Things Day, players can explore once again The Upside Down and get the full Stranger Things experience with the Demogorgon, Nancy Wheeler and Steve Harrington.
“We’re thrilled to renew this collaboration with Netflix, to bring back the Stranger Things Chapter, including the Underground Complex Map from the Hawkins National Laboratory, and the iconic Survivor duo composed of Nancy Wheeler, a tough aspiring journalist, and Steve Harrington, a former high school jock with a knack for finding trouble,” says Mathieu Côté, Head of Partnerships for Behaviour Interactive. “We hope players who didn’t get to experience Stranger Things [in Dead by Daylight] will take full advantage of this gaming experience today.”
In addition, all of the previously-released Stranger Things cosmetics are coming back to the Dead by Daylight in-game store, including the Jonathan Byers Outfit and the Scoops Ahoy Outfit for Steve.
Dead by Daylight is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store and the Windows Store.

Limited-Time Crossover Event for ‘Resident Evil Survival Unit’ With ‘Monster Hunter’ Announced [Teaser]
If you haven’t yet checked out Aniplex Inc. and JOYCITY Corporation’s Resident Evil Survival Unit, the free-to-play real-time strategy game has just announced a new collaboration with another Capcom property in Monster Hunter to entice prospective players. Kicking off on July 2 and running until July 29, the limited-time collaboration will introduce Monster Hunter–inspired elements into the post-apocalyptic world of Resident Evil Survival Unit, adding large-scale monster encounters to the game’s strategic systems.
Details on the collaboration are being kept under wraps for now, but during the event, players will be able to participate in collaboration-exclusive in-game events that will earn them special rewards inspired by the Monster Hunter series. We do get a brief teaser trailer for the upcoming event, which in addition to teasing various monsters for players to battle, also promises new units for players to recruit.
Set in a parallel world inspired by the Resident Evil universe, the game features an original storyline and real-time strategic gameplay designed for mobile platforms. Players will build bases, secure resources, and battle creatures in a collapsed city. Iconic characters such as Leon S. Kennedy, Claire Redfield, and Jill Valentine appear throughout the game, allowing for team formations that bring together characters from across the Resident Evil franchise, enabling unique combinations not seen in the original titles.
Resident Evil Survival Unit is available on iOS and Android devices.
