Dead by Daylight Devs Want You To Build The Next Two Characters

Behaviour Interactive is letting Dead by Daylight players decide who comes to the game next! They’re currently holding a vote on their website to choose both the next survivor and killer characters. Head over to the Dead by Daylight website to cast your votes and help shape the future of the game.

Players can choose from four different survivor characters and three killer characters. The survivors are fairly standard, but the killers offer more unique and interesting options. See the full list below.

As a Dead by Daylight fan, I love checking out the official website because they have this cool feature called ‘The Grimoire’. It’s basically a way for us, the players, to vote on things and actually help decide where the game goes next – pretty awesome, right?

Honestly, I have no idea what this new villain will actually look like, but the glimpses we’ve gotten so far – just the shapes and outlines – are already pretty intimidating, which is a good sign!

The latest character added to Dead by Daylight is Vecna, from Stranger Things, also called The First. He joined the game shortly after The Krasue, a frightening spirit from Southeast Asian folklore.
