‘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.
Developer Offworld Industries and Knights Peak are still at it with Starship Troopers: Extermination dropping Update 11 for the 16-player co-op FPS, which sports new content additions, performance and optimization improvements as well as bug fixes. Oh, and you can also now take showers.
Yes, the Field Shower is a new buildable structure available for every Build Zone. Once constructed, the Field Shower provides Troopers with access to battlefield sanitation facilities. A shower will extinguish a burning Trooper, as well as provide a method of Health restoration.
Completing the full duration Federation Standardized Shower will also provide Troopers with a combat performance boost. Troopers who have recently showered will move slightly faster, jump higher, climb better, shoot more accurately, and gain additional Morale XP.
The update also introduces a series of rotating Critical Dispatches designed to support the war effort and reward continued service to the Federation. Additionally, every deployment cycle, Troopers will receive a fresh set of Daily Dispatches generated by Fleet Command. Troopers can do one refresh of the missions list per 24-hours. Exterminatation currently has 47 Critical Dispatches in rotation, with more to be added. Successful completion of Daily Missions will grant additional combat experience and contribute toward long-term DSV Service Record milestones.
In addition, the DSV Service Record System has been added to permanently document a Trooper’s military career and recognize exceptional contributions to the war effort. Every confirmed combat action, operational deployment, battlefield specialization, and successful mission contributes toward a growing Service Record reviewed by Federal Command. As Service Record milestones are completed, Troopers will earn Career Experience, advancing their standing within the Mobile Infantry.
For those wanted cosmetics, There’s a new Supporter Cosmetic Pack in The Tesla Giants Supporter Pack, allowing players to show their support for the Tesla Giants, the legendary Jump Ball team from Zander Barcalow’s high school. Inspired by the team’s dominance on the court, this cosmetic pack includes a Helmet Visor, Armor Uniform, Helmet Decal and Weapons Skin inspired by the Giants.
Starship Troopers: Extermination is currently available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam.
