As a long-time fan of Dead by Daylight and horror games in general, I am beyond excited for the upcoming release of The Casting of Frank Stone! September 3, 2024, cannot come soon enough. Having grown up on classics like Until Dawn and The Quarry, I’ve always been drawn to narrative-driven horror experiences that put me in control of characters’ fates.

September 3, 2024 marks the scheduled release of The Frank Stone Project, a standalone game set in the universe of Dead by Daylight. For enthusiasts yearning for a fresh perspective on the series, this title promises an intriguing exploration of the world beyond the Entity’s grasp.

In partnership with Supermassive Games, the standalone title “The Casting of Frank Stone” offers a chilling single-player adventure that brings the universe of “Dead by Daylight” to life with a stronger emphasis on storytelling and horror elements. This experience shares similarities with Supermassive’s other productions, such as “The Quarry” and “Until Dawn“. Set in the peaceful town of Cedar Hills during the 1980s, players will assume control of a group of original characters striving to make their mark in the horror film industry. However, their films unwittingly lead them towards an encounter with forces beyond their understanding, leaving it to the player to steer these young filmmakers through harrowing choices.

In the latest preview for “Murder Mill,” it’s announced that “The Casting of Frank Stone” will be released on September 3, 2024 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. Early bird buyers can secure their copy beforehand and enjoy perks within the game as well as in “Dead by Daylight.” Pre-ordering grants players the ability to find hidden treasures more efficiently with the added feature of Plunderer’s Instinct. For those who possess “Dead by Daylight,” purchasing “The Casting of Frank Stone” comes with an additional bonus: two million Bloodpoints and exclusive cosmetics for survivors. A Behaviour account is essential to claim these rewards, while “Dead by Daylight” bonuses will only be accessible starting September 3.

The Casting of Frank Stone Release Date

  • September 3, 2024

This release date confirms a leak that came from the DBDLeaks subreddit last month, stating that The Casting of Frank Stone would launch on September 3, a full month before the official announcement. This will be the first time the world of Dead by Daylight has extended beyond the title’s realm in an interactive way, giving fans an insight into how the real world is affected by the Entity, and allowing them to try to combat the evil. The Entity itself can be seen at the end of the most recent trailer, confirming that the young filmmakers are dealing with something familiar to players of Dead by Daylight.

Supermassive Games has a knack for creating horror games centered around intriguing narratives. However, the distinctive environment of “Dead by Daylight” sets “The Casting of Frank Stone” apart with its innovative take on this formula. For some gamers, navigating decisions and modifications in a setting they’re already acquainted with adds to the experience. The integration of “Dead by Daylight” ensures that “The Casting of Frank Stone” provides exclusive encounters that aren’t available in other Supermassive Games productions.
