Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

Highlights

  • Non-horror characters like Lara Croft & Vecna bring fresh twists to Dead By Daylight for fans willing to step out of their comfort zone.
  • Potential crossovers with Scooby-Doo, What We Do in the Shadows, and more could offer unique gameplay experiences and perks.
  • Entertaining possibilities also exist for crossovers with Bridgerton, Ghostbusters, and The Sims in Dead By Daylight’s universe.

As a lifelong fan of these iconic franchises, I can’t help but feel a wave of nostalgia and excitement at the prospect of seeing these characters cross over into Dead by Daylight. Each of these crossovers would offer unique gameplay experiences that cater to the distinct personalities and abilities of these beloved characters.


For quite some time now, “Dead By Daylight” has deeply embedded itself within the horror genre as a highly acclaimed asymmetric multiplayer game. Yet, there’s been an intriguing deviation in its latest additions – the adventurer Lara Croft and the malevolent entity Vecna from “Dungeons & Dragons,” which seem to be moving it away from its traditional path.

As a dedicated gamer immersed in the thrilling world of Dead By Daylight, I’m wondering if we might see more characters from genres beyond horror joining our ranks. The massive success of Nicolas Cage as a Survivor clearly indicates that DBD fans are ready to explore new territories. So, who else from the realms of pop culture could introduce a thrilling, unanticipated element to the game?

10 Scooby-Doo & Mystery Inc.

“Of Course It’s Haunted. Like, When Do We Ever Go To A Place That’s Not Haunted?” ~ Shaggy

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

Since 1969, these amateur detective teams have consistently uncovered that what seemed to be supernatural entities were actually the groundskeepers or butlers in disguise. However, Scooby-Doo and his friends were taken aback when they encountered The Entity in a realm far more ominous and terrifying than any they had previously faced.

Transforming Coolsville, the beloved home of Scooby-Doo and his friends, into a thrilling new universe seems like a splendid idea. The renowned amusement park and spooky abandoned mansion in Coolsville could undergo a classic Entity-style facelift, thereby creating an excellent backdrop for some chilling hide-and-seek adventures.

Potential Perks

  • Scooby Snacks: Gives a 6s Haste effect when consumed and a cooldown of 60s.
  • Zoinks!: Reveals the Killer’s aura for 3s every 30s.

9 What We Do In The Shadows

“You Are Supposed To Support Me When I Want To Murder Someone!” ~ Nadja

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

In a more casual and engaging manner, here’s how we can rephrase that:

The eerie mansion in Staten Island, adorned with gothic elements and multiple levels, seems ripe for all sorts of mischief or mystery. It may conceal hidden doors, cursed objects, and secret references for fans of the show. Although indoor maps aren’t typically favored by the “Dead By Daylight” community, this decaying manor could alter that perception.

Potential Perks

  • Relentless: Decreases Bloodlust chase time by 5s making tier I – 10s, tier II – 20, tier III – 30s.
  • BAT!: Gives the ability to change into a bat every 60s and discover Survivor locations through echolocation.

8 Trixie Mattel & Katya Zamolodchikova

“I’m An Optimistic Realist. I Expect The Worst But Prepare For The Best.” ~ Trixie Mattel

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

Given that Nicolas Cage unexpectedly joined the cast of Dead By Daylight, it’s reasonable to speculate that other real-life personalities might follow suit. Introducing drag queens Trixie and Katya as Survivors would not only be incredibly popular but also incredibly amusing.

Trixie and Katya have been recognized for their affinity towards the game “Dead by Daylight” in the past, with their unique tastes making them exceptional picks. Notably, this game boasts a substantial community that identifies as LGBTQ+, suggesting that their collaboration could generate quite a buzz!

Potential Perks

  • Oh Honey: When in the Dying State, the Killer is unable to pick you up for 10s.
  • Whose Birthdays Are It?: If they are empty-handed, other Survivors within a 10m radius get a random item.

7 Bridgerton

“Dearest Gentle Reader…” ~ Lady Whistledown

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

Exploring the boundless array of costumes and iconic characters from Bridgerton could open up a world of possibilities! This Regency-era series might add a touch of sophistication to our realm, assuming it’s welcomed. However, what if the crossover isn’t Survivor-based? Could there be room for a Bridgerton-themed slasher?

Imagery here: Lady Whistledown roams the countryside, clad in an unkempt Regency dress. She carries quills that resemble arrows, poised to write. She has a knack for gossip which proves handy when influencing Survivors.

Potential Perks

  • Rumor Has It: The auras of all Survivor scratch marks and blood trails are revealed for 7s after hooking a Survivor.
  • Hex: Soirée: The actions of Survivors are slowed by 5% when they spend more than 5s with others.

6 Ghostbusters

“I Ain’t Afraid Of No Ghost!” ~ Ray Parker Jr.

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

If anything unusual arises within the domain of The Entity, who do you turn to for help: none other than the Ghostbusters! Blurring the distinction between pursuer and pursued, there’s no adventure more thrilling than a Ghostbusters collaboration.

Every survivor in the Ghostbusters team might be equipped with their personal Proton Packs for temporarily stunning enemies. It’d be entertaining to see Slimer function as an antagonist, slipping through walls and leaving large trails of gooey ectoplasm behind him.

Potential Perks

  • Boon: Crossing Streams: When a Survivor blesses a totem, any Killer coming into the 24-meter radius of that totem is slowed by 5%.
  • Paranormal Expert: When within 5m of other Survivors all Survivors can see the aura of the Killer for 5s.

5 Rocky Horror Picture Show

“Chill Me, Thrill Me, Fulfill Me, Creature Of The Night!” ~ Janet Weiss

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

The following selection is “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” a unique blend of musical comedy and horror that holds a cherished spot in numerous hearts. Characters Brad and Janet form a duo of resilient survivors, while Dr. Frank N. Furter could send shivers down your spine as he struts around the game map in high heels. An exciting new game map modeled after Dr. Frank N. Furter’s castle would create an ideal setting for thrilling, eerie gameplay.

Potential Perks

  • Hex: Time Warp: When Survivors enter the 24m radius around the hex totem, they can no longer run. This effect stops as soon as they leave the radius.
  • Oh, Rocky!: The Killer can summon a creature to scout the area and reveal any hiding Survivors.

4 Barbie

“Do You Guys Ever Think About Dying?” ~ Barbie

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

Two realms intersect as Barbie steps into the ominous and grim atmosphere of Dead by Daylight. Initially, consider the potential makeup transformations: from Traditional Barbie to a Quirky Barbie who’s perpetually in a split position and radiates the aroma of a basement.

As a seasoned gamer, I’m here to tell you that I, much like Barbie, have the skills needed to outwit any of the Dead By Daylight Killers. At first glance, my abilities may seem trivial, but let me assure you, they are anything but. Don’t underestimate a character based on their initial appearance; often, it’s the ones that shine brightest in the darkest corners who survive the longest.

Potential Perks

  • Boon: Barbie Land: When a Survivor blesses a totem, any Survivor within the 24-meter radius is miniaturized for 10s.
  • Barbie’s Dreamhouse: When in a locker, the Survivor can see the aura of the Killer for 5s. This effect persists for 5s once they leave the locker.

3 The X-Files

“The Truth Is Out There… But So Are Lies.” ~ Agent Dana Scully

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

It would be a fantastic realization of dreams for many sci-fi enthusiasts to see the FBI’s most elusive characters enter the realm of the game “Dead By Daylight”. Given their past encounters with incomprehensible beings, it’s clear they have the skills needed to tackle any new challenges that might come their way.

Characters Fox Mulder and Dana Scully from the TV series, The X-Files, possess distinct abilities that could ideally position them as Survivors in Dead By Daylight. Maybe incorporating a map with a downed UFO could enhance the enjoyment?

Potential Perks

  • Trust No One: When healing others, the Survivor sees the aura of the Killer.
  • Rational Mind: When in the Killer’s terror radius, skill check zones are increased by 10%.

2 The Sims

“Urgh, Groble!” ~ A Disgusted Sim

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

In a hypothetical crossover, the role of the player’s guiding hand might be taken over by an Entity, thus eliminating the need for human supervision. Some Sims might not perceive any significant distinction between the two entities controlling their world.

Customizing your characters to your heart’s content expands the realm of creativity significantly! To make it even more exciting, imagine exploring a map inspired by the iconic Sims universe, combining chills with humor for an eccentric mix of terror and whimsy.

Potential Perks

  • Build Mode: Survivors can build a trap to slow the Killer.
  • Live Mode: When fully healed, Survivors have 2% increased speed on healing and repairing.

1 Deadpool

“Daddy Needs To Express Some Rage!” ~ Deadpool

Non-Horror Crossovers In Dead By Daylight

As a longtime fan of comic books and action movies, I can confidently say that incorporating Deadpool into a video game would be a brilliant move! With his iconic voice lines and knack for breaking the fourth wall, he’d bring an unprecedented level of humor to the gameplay experience. Plus, let’s not forget about the endless meme opportunities – it’s hard to imagine anyone else delivering such hilarious one-liners quite like Deadpool does! As someone who has grown up with this mercenary antihero, I can only imagine how exciting and fun it would be to see him come to life in a new medium.

As a gamer, it’s a breeze to envision a squad of four, all Deadpool Survivors, each packing a load of chimichangas. Deadpool, with his knack for fitting right into any realm, is the kind of character who wouldn’t feel out of place anywhere.

Potential Perks

  • Chimichanga: Survivors are armed with three explosive chimichangas to stun Killers.
  • Careless Whisper: Survivor gets a 20% speed boost and their aura is shown to other players, including the Killer, every 20s.
