Dead by Daylight Celebrates its Anniversary with New Single Player Interactive Story Game and PvE Game

wccftech.com:

Dead By Daylight’s seventh anniversary is almost here, and as is customary, each anniversary brings big reveals or sweeping changes to the game. In 2020, players saw Silent Hill’s Pyramid Head and Cheryl Mason added as playable characters, along with Midwich Elementary School as a map. 2021 added Resident Evil’s Nemesis, Leon S. Kennedy, and Jill Valentine while updating the game’s ranking system, to name a few examples.

This year, things showcase a new turn for the team. While there will be a brand-new chapter coming with the anniversary, we’ve now left Earth altogether. Dead By Daylight: END TRANSMISSION will be the latest chapter. This new chapter will also introduce an original survivor, Gabriel Soma, an original Killer, The Singularity, and their respective map, Toba Landing, on June 13th.

PC users will be able to opt into the Public Test Build next week. That’s not all; Nicolas Cage will wind up joining the roster of Dead By Daylight later this year, and players are encouraged to find out more this July. No release date or perk information was revealed for Nicolas Cage just yet, but it’s likely he’ll be the same thing as Ash Williams or Mikaela Reid (a solo Survivor not tied to a chapter).

On the cosmetic side, two new collections will be coming soon, paying tribute to metal legends Iron Maiden and Slipknot. The Iron Maiden collection focuses on band figurehead Eddie and its various appearances on their album covers, whereas the Slipknot collection features nine masked themed after the various members of Slipknot. No release date has been disclosed as of yet.

This trend continues with the Artists from The Fog Collection, featuring artists from Poland, Spain, Canada, and the United States, with Creative Director Ikumi
