Outfits Inspired by Junji Ito’s Creations Have Arrived in ‘Dead by Daylight’ [Trailer]
After teasing fans back in November, Behaviour Interactive has unleashed their latest collaboration for Dead by Daylight, this time with acclaimed horror Manga artist Junji Ito! Available now, the Junji Ito Collection honors his catalog with eight outfits inspired by some of his most memorable characters. The Collection aims to offer long-time admirers a fresh way to experience Ito’s creations, while introducing an entirely new audience to his work.
From a human marionette puppeted through the world on strings, to a man able to produce and spit nails from his mouth, Ito’s characters range from the unsettling to the unthinkable. A perfect fit to join the rest of the tortured souls lost in The Fog.
“This time, I had the opportunity to experience playing Dead by Daylight. The characters I created become killers and do some very horrible things in the game”, says Mr. Ito. “It was very moving to see that they had become even more terrifying characters after leaving my hands.”
The Junji Ito Collection contains the following outfits:
- Miss Fuchi – Legendary Outfit for The Artist, taken from the stories “Rumors” and “Fashion Model”
- Tomie – Legendary Outfit for The Spirit, taken from the story “Tomie”
