Dead By Daylight's FNAF Crossover Needs to Clarify One Lingering Question

Highlights

  • Dead By Daylight’s collaborative crossovers have been a major draw since 2016, with top horror IPs joining forces in the game.
  • The FNAF collaboration, expected in summer 2025, is highly anticipated, but fans are eager for details on the killer/survivor content.
  • Speculation points to Springtrap as the likely killer, while the survivor choice remains unclear, possibly between Gregory and Mike Schmidt.

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent navigating the terrifying landscapes of Dead By Daylight and the haunted corridors of Five Nights at Freddy’s, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and impatience as we approach the summer of 2025. The crossover between these two horror juggernauts has been long overdue, and the anticipation is palpable in the gaming community.

One captivating feature of the game “Dead By Daylight” is its knack for teaming up with well-known horror series, consistently introducing new and engaging crossover content from prominent horror properties in gaming, cinema, and television. These collaborations have essentially fueled the game’s existence since its launch in 2016, and a recently announced partnership might be the most eagerly awaited collaboration the title has ever had.

In the near future, it’s been officially announced that “Dead By Daylight” and “Five Nights at Freddy’s” are teaming up for a crossover event set to release in summer 2025. The prospect of these two popular horror gaming franchises coming together is a dream come true for many fans, creating a wave of excitement and anticipation. However, Behaviour Interactive should disclose the specifics of what gameplay elements this collaboration will entail as soon as possible to quell the growing curiosity among players.

Fans Deserve to Know Exactly What They Are Getting with Dead by Daylight’s FNAF Crossover

From the onset of its creation, Behaviour Interactive saw a significant potential for collaboration between Dead By Daylight and other horror properties. This was evident as partnership content with popular horror franchises began rolling out shortly after the game’s debut in 2016. For instance, one of the initial crossovers that graced Dead By Daylight was with the Halloween series, introducing Michael Myers and Laurie Strode as playable characters within the game.

As a dedicated gamer, I can’t help but feel thrilled about the collaborations that Dead By Daylight has been a part of. From the chilling worlds of iconic horror franchises like Saw, Nightmare on Elm Street, Child’s Play, and Alien, to the battlefields of popular games such as Fortnite, this game has truly made its mark. What makes it even more exciting is that the horror genre isn’t just receiving content from DBD; several other horror games have jumped on board too! The eerie landscapes of Silent Hill, the terrifying mansions of Resident Evil, and the zombie-infested streets of Left 4 Dead are now part of the unique Dead By Daylight universe.

As a devoted gamer, I find it hard to believe that the collaboration between “Dead By Daylight” and the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” franchise hasn’t happened sooner, given their long-standing dominance in the horror gaming realm. Starting as a modest indie project, “FNAF” has grown into a media titan with more than 20 games, over 50 books, and a major motion picture under its belt. A sequel to the movie is set for release towards the end of 2025!

Dead By Daylight’s FNAF Crossover Has Too Many Survivor Choices for Its Own Good

Details regarding the upcoming FNAF crossover are scarce, but we do know it’s slated for summer 2025. It appears that this collaboration might introduce at least one new character as a killer and another as a survivor. Many fans speculate that Springtrap could be the chosen killer for the FNAF crossover, given William Afton’s prominent role in the recent FNAF movie as the main antagonist.

One element of the FNAF crossover that is more ambiguous, however, is who the candidate for the crossover’s new survivor will be. Through its famously deep lore, the Five Nights at Freddy’s franchise has featured many different survivor-type characters, but only one will likely make the cut for the upcoming collaboration if it follows the usual DBD formula. Gregory is a more recent survivor from the franchise, as the main protagonist of Security Breach, with the security guard Mike Schmidt also appearing as the lead for several FNAF games and its recent film. Given Mike’s true identity and family ties to William Afton, he seems like the most logical choice for the DBD survivor role, and Behaviour Interactive needs to clear up the confusion around this survivor pick while the hype around the crossover is still at a fever pitch.
