Dead By Daylight Adding New Silent Hill Content

Now the game is taking its first foray into a realm of horror only previously touched upon with a small collaboration: video games.

The universe of Silent Hill created in the late 90s has had an undeniable impact on the world of video games and horror media that lingers to this day. P.T. from 2014, made in collaboration between Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro, was a "playable teaser" for a new entry in the series called Silent Hills that was cancelled when Kojima parted ways with Konami. Rumors currently abound that a new Silent Hill may be in development for PlayStation 5 , but Dead by Daylight is reaching into the series' past rather than its future with content based on Silent Hill 1 , 2 , and


While developing the Silent Hill Chapter, Behaviour found out that Silent Hill 's original composer Akira Yamaoka was a fan of the asymmetrical horror game, Cote said.

A solid strategy when using the Demogorgon is to place a portal at every generator or major location across a map. This allows the killer to have access to any location that a survivor may deem as advantageous. On top of this accessibility, the Demogorgon can activate each of these portals to essentially have a full surveillance camera to watch over these key areas. This allows the killer to lock down any offensive attempts made by the survivors and to excel at dominating the online ar

The following tips an tricks will assist players just picking up the Oni character and will provide some guidance on how to successfully and brutally murder surviv


"The good thing is, uncertainty is part of what makes Dead by Daylight amazing and exciting every day," Cote said. "That's why people come back to it, because you're never sure what you're going to face or how it's going to turn out. That's part of the mag


Given his ability to cover large distances, Demogorgon's ability to catch up to survivors is surprisingly lacking. Although his lunging attack is a powerful move, it is rather finicky at times. It requires a certain degree of accuracy to connect against evasive survivors and has smaller range than a killer would hope for. Plus his recovery animation after whiffing the lung is glacial at times and can easily grant a survivor the time required to esc


In order for survivors to win in Dead by Daylight, they must repair 5 generators strewn around the map in order to activate the exit gates, and actually make it to the exit alive in Dead by Daylight , while the killer attempts to stalk and Kill Switch System them first.
