According to a Reddit leak that's made the rounds ahead of Dead by Daylight's sixth anniversary, the next Killer will come in the form of a creepy-looking being known as The Dredge. Developer Behaviour Interactive originally launched Dead by Daylight in 2016 on PC, then later ported the asymmetrical multiplayer adventure to consoles. The hit horror title has since made its way to nearly every other platform of consequence, including Google Stadia, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices.
Behaviour Interactive's regular updates for Dead by Daylight keeps players invested long-term, with some of the extra content occasionally introducing brand crossovers with other popular IP. The most recent of such crossovers saw Behaviour's franchise collide with the Ringu film series in a chapter all about the ghostly Sadako Yamamura. Since the sixth anniversary of Dead by Daylight's release is quickly approaching, players patiently await what the development team has in store for the next major update. The wait to find out won't last long either, thanks to an anniversary stream scheduled to go live on Tuesday, May 17.
