Dead by Daylight will get a board game if crowdfunding succeeds

gamepur.com:

The incredibly popular horror game Dead by Daylight will be receiving a board game adaptation for Halloween this year if its upcoming crowdfunding campaign succeeds on KickStarter. Behaviour Interactive and the board game maker Level 99 have described how it plays as well.

Launching on March 29, the KickStarter campaign for the Dead by Daylight board game will go live, and you’ll be able to preorder your copy before it arrives in stores this Halloween.

The Dead by Daylight board game adaptation will be similar to the video game. Up to four players are survivors while one person plays as the killer. You’ll have to find and repair the generators to get out of the Trial Grounds. Meanwhile, the killer has to predict the survivors’ moves to discover and hunt them down.

Furthermore, the board game will include the items, perks, and interactive props from the original product. “The game is accessible for players of all skill levels, and the wide variety of play options allow groups to tailor the game to their tastes,” states Behaviour Interactive in their press release.

There will be two different versions of the Dead by Daylight board game: the standard edition at $49.99 USD and the collectors’ edition at $99.99 USD. The first is cheaper and includes six killers, seven survivors, and two maps. Meanwhile, the collector’s edition includes a whopping 16 killers, 17 survivors, and four maps. The characters you can play as are taken from the game. It will “include the complete roster of characters up through the All-Kill DLC,” said Behaviour Interactive.

Both versions of the game will include “highly detailed miniatures” of the characters you can play as, but the collector’s edition will take it up a notch with miniature hooks
