A terrifying reveal trailer for the next Dead by Daylight chapter, Sadako Rising, reveals a ghostly new killer and a recognizable survivor. Behaviour Interactive's multiplayer survival horror title has a group of survivors work together to escape a powerful player-controlled killer. Dead by Daylight's crossover with Ringu, a Japanese horror novel and film that inspired 2002's American remake The Ring, was first announced back in December 2021.

Released in 2016, Dead by Daylight sees two teams go head-to-head in an asymmetric multiplayer horror experience. Four players take on the roles of various human survivors who are tasked with repairing five generators in order to escape from the map. The killer, meanwhile, must hunt down and kill the survivors as sacrifices to a demonic entity. Since its launch Dead by Daylight has initiated various crossovers, pulling in new killers and survivors from popular horror series like A Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween and Hellraiser. In January 2022 a new Dead by Daylight crossover with Sawwas launched, bringing back the iconic pig-masked killer Amanda Young and the unsettling puppet Jigsaw.
