At the weekend, Behaviour Interactive published the roadmap for the coming year in Dead by Daylight. That we are not in for a darn seventh year, but rather a second spring, is revealed by the developer”s busy plans.
Collaborations in the Dead by Daylight universe
Behaviour Interactive has big plans for the Dead by Daylight universe. This is made clear on the one hand by the various cooperations that the Canadian developer studio has entered into with other companies.
For example, they are working together with Supermassive Games on a single-player story game. As is to be expected from the two studios, the concept of life and death is also at the forefront of this previously unknown title.
In contrast, the Behaviour subsidiary Midwinter Games is busy working on a multiplayer PvE game. Among other things, this is to tackle themes such as greed and depict a strange corner of the Entity realm.
Away from the gaming screens, Behaviour Interactive is also starting to gain a foothold.
For example, there s the already announced Dead by Daylight adaptation. Right now, the hiring process for director and screenwriter is underway. Further information on this will be provided at a later date.
The first issue of the Dead by Daylight comic book will also be released soon. This will be published by Titan Comics and should be available in stores and in digital form by the beginning of June.
