There's a risk associated with it, and there's a tension created by needing to pass skill checks-timing-based events where a dial spins around a circle and you need to hit a button when it reaches the right spot (think Active Reloads from Gears of War, except the target area moves every time). Repairing generators is easier said than done, of course. The only thing complicating this is the Killer, who really doesn't want you to leave. The exit gates are locked and unpowered, and to open them you and your team need to repair five generators littered around the randomly-generated map. To survive in Dead by Daylight, the four players without murderous intentions need to escape the trial.

Being a huge threat is a real treat, and it's how Dead by Daylight creates the tense atmosphere it needs to succeed-Survivors know they're outgunned (literally, if the Deathslinger is in the trial) but they do their best to live anyway. Killers find themselves holding most of the cards when it comes to playing, and that's the way the game likes it. Silent Hill's Pyramid Head leaves a trail of horrible barbed wire anywhere he drags his giant blade, and he can send anyone who steps in it to his own special sacrifice areas. The Trapper discreetly leaves bear traps on the ground, catching any Survivors who aren't watching where they're going in a crippling vice of metal teeth. The Hillbilly charges around the map with his chainsaw, the revving of the limb-lopping tool acting as a terrifying warning of what's to come. With twenty different Killers to choose from (so far), there's no shortage of entertaining and diverse playstyles. The Survivors can't do anything to harm you-at best, they can slow you down-while you're equipped with a wide array of offensive abilities. You move faster, you have access to more immediate information, and, most importantly, you're the only one capable of dealing any damage. And while you're outnumbered, the odds are heavily lopsided in your favour.

When everything works there's literally no game like it-where else can you play as iconic film and TV characters like Ash Williams or Nancy Wheeler as you run away from villains like Ghost Face, Freddy Krueger, or Michael Myers? The premise might seem silly, but Dead by Daylight turns it into one of the most thrilling multiplayer experiences around, pitting one terrifying Killer against four hapless Survivors as they scramble to escape the map alive.Īs the Killer, your job is to sacrifice the four Survivors to the Entity, the malevolent god in charge of the nonstop forced competition that is each 'trial' in the game. After a rough launch in 2016 and many years of updates, Dead by Daylight has evolved into one of the best horror games you can play today.
