Dead by Daylight Reveals New Castlevania Content in Upcoming Chapter

Key Takeaways

  • Dominus chapter in Dead by Daylight brings Castlevania content, including new skins and cosmetics.
  • Fans excited for upcoming content focused on Castlevania characters and lore.
  • Speculation arises about potential new original characters receiving themed cosmetics.

As a long-time fan of both Dead by Daylight and Castlevania, I can’t help but feel my heart race with anticipation as I gaze upon the stunning visuals of the Dominus chapter! The fusion of these two iconic franchises is a dream come true for me.


In its upcoming chapter titled Dominus, the popular game “Dead by Daylight” is set to unveil fresh Castlevania-themed material. The latest DLC for Dead by Daylight, also themed around Castlevania, enjoyed a triumphant debut. Fans were particularly impressed with how Dracula was incorporated into the game, while many expressed joy over Trevor Belmont serving as the Survivor for this chapter. However, some enthusiasts expressed hope that more characters might be added in future updates.

A significant number of gamers think it’s fitting that the Castlevania series receives a Resident Evil-style treatment in Dead by Daylight, given the expansive universe of the Castlevania series. Since there are numerous protagonists beyond the Belmont Clan, it could be logical for additional Survivors to be added if Dead by Daylight were to follow this path. However, a fresh update about the game should help keep fans eager for more Castlevania-related content.

The official Twitter account for “Dead by Daylight” recently unveiled the upcoming Dominus chapter, focusing on the “Castlevania” series. A clip accompanying the post showcased sneak peeks of various characters, including Soma Cruz, Death, Shanoa, and Jonathan Morris, moving around within the game. The trailer suggests that Dawn of Sorrow’s Soma Cruz will be a costume for Trevor Belmont, while it appears Shanoa and Jonathan will be outfits for Yui and Felix respectively, based on how they were labeled in the reveal. However, this may not matter much to many fans, as they consider the content relevant due to the recent launch of the “Castlevania Dominus Collection”.

Tome 21: Dominus Unlockables

  • Soma Cruz skin (for Trevor Belmont)
  • Jonathan’s Attire (for Felix Richter)
  • Shanoa’s Dress (for Yui Kimura)
  • True Form Dracula (for The Dark Lord)
  • Death’s Cloak (for The Nurse)
  • Dracula’s Castle (Charm)
  • Dracula’s Head (Badge)

Besides what was previously mentioned, a new appearance for Dracula from Castlevania, called True Form skin, and a Death’s Cloak outfit for The Nurse are being introduced. Additionally, during the chapter, you can unlock a Dracula’s Castle charm, a themed banner, and badge. All these cosmetic items are part of the Rift Pass for the Dominus chapter, which will be available starting October 8. While the Castlevania-themed content is the main highlight in this update, many fans are already guessing which other original characters might also receive their own cosmetics.

As the 2v8 mode of Dead by Daylight coincides with this current chapter, it’s likely that many fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming season of Dead by Daylight, particularly Tome 21: Dominus and Halloween. Additionally, there is speculation that new Killers will be introduced for this returning mode, which has some fans hoping that The Blight, The Spirit, and The Deathslinger might receive new costumes during this chapter. Given the extensive Castlevania lore, some players are optimistic that if Behaviour and Castlevania come to an agreement about using the property, many of the Killers could potentially receive themed skins related to Dominus.
