‘Dead by Daylight: Stranger Things Chapter 2’ Now Available [Trailer]
The gate has officially been reopened. Stranger Things is back in Behaviour Interactive’s Dead by Daylight with the launch of Chapter 2, adding Vecna, Dustin and Eleven into the mix of Killers and Survivors alike Accompanying the release is a brand-new trailer.
Vecna, The First brings his dark powers to the game, allowing him to bend the world around him, manifesting and weaponizing the physical presence of the Upside Down within The Fog. Sinister vines lash out at the unsuspecting as Vecna disappears beneath the ground, reemerging to curse any within his path. The haunting chime of grandfather clocks scattered across the Map may be the Survivors’ only salvation…
Meanwhile, on the Survivors’ side, the iconic Jane “Eleven” Hopper and Dustin Henderson join the fight alongside the first chapter’s Steve and Nancy. Each character brings a different set of skills, resources, and approaches to The Fog. The four Survivors can also count on some much-needed backup thanks to Legendary Outfits of Jonathan Byers from the original Stranger Things Chapter, and newcomers Eddie Munson (Legendary for Dustin) and Robin Buckley (Legendary for Nancy).
Dead by Daylight: Stranger Things Chapter 2 is now available on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch.
With only a few days to go before WildSphere’s Escape From Umbra launches on PC and console on July 10, the devs have released an updated demo to Steam and GOG to woo potential players. The new 10-15 minute demo allows players to get their first look at the game’s story, while also offering a glimpse into the core mechanics of the full game.
Furthermore, Xbox players can now pre-order the game, where early supporters can take advantage of a 10% limited-time discount until July 9th. Nintendo Switch, Steam, and GOG launches will be accompanied by a discount upon launch.
Escape From Umbra transports players to a labyrinthine town inspired by the mountain villages in Las Alpujarras. Their iconic narrow streets and white facades have been invaded by dark roots and a dense, oppressive fog. Following the trail of enigmatic black cats, players will freely explore every corner of the town to find the way to escape from the nightmare where Umbra has locked them up.
Eschewing artificial inventories or floating backpacks, the game opts for a true “escape room” format. Players must investigate the environment, manipulate objects, and figure out how to use them within the 3D space to escape each area. To do so, they will rely on a mysterious magic book, deciphering its logic-based clues to solve every puzzle and challenge.
However, the town is governed by shadow creatures that watch for any presence to summon the mistress of darkness. Players will carry a unique flashlight capable of condensing energy and unleashing powerful bursts of light, which allow them to defend themselves against specters and reveal secrets hidden by magic.
Additionally, controller vibration becomes a living gameplay mechanic: there are no on-screen indicators; the character’s heartbeat is transmitted directly to the player’s hands, accelerating chaotically as the only radar for imminent danger.
