The Walking Dead is coming to Dead by Daylight

Behaviour Interactive never misses an opportunity to bring great crossover content to its crown jewel multiplayer survival game, Dead by Daylight. The latest chapter will bring major characters and set pieces from the world of AMC's The Walking Dead to the game.

New survivors enter the fold, as players will be able to select from two iconic Walking Dead characters. You could choose to play as Rick Grimes, the main protagonist of The Walking Dead. The Rick Grimes character will feature original voice acting from Andrew Lincoln, who portrayed the character in the long-running television series.

Players can also select Michonne, katana-wielding badass and Rick's wife in the series. These new survivors will each feature three unique character perks that make them uniquely suited for post-apocalyptic survival while emphasizing teamwork.

Behaviour is also including Daryl Dixon, who served as the show’s main protagonist following Rick Grimes’ departure in 2019, in the form of a Legendary Outfit. This means players can apply a Daryl Dixon skin to an existing survivor, maintaining the underlying survivor’s perks and mechanics. The Daryl Legendary Outfit includes new voice lines by Norman Reedus, who portrays Daryl in The Walking Dead.

The crossover will also feature iconic set pieces from the television show, like the “Don’t Open, Dead Inside” hospital doors from the pilot episode. These elements will appear when players have selected Rick or Michonne and load into the Garden of Joy map.
