Dead By Daylight: Stranger Things Content Leaving the Store, New DLC teased

Dead By Daylight is leaving the Stranger Things universe, meaning players will no longer be able to prowl through the Hawkins National Laboratory or purchase any related DLC.

The news was announced earlier today, to the consternation of some fans on social media. Behaviour Interactive said all characters and outfits will be leaving the store on November 17.

The characters and outfits will continue to be available to anyone who purchases them. However, the Hawkins Laboratory map will no longer be available once the content is removed from the store later this year.

Before that happens, Dead By Daylight will be offering steep discounts on all of its Stranger Things items beginning August 18. Console players will also be able to purchase the Stranger Things Chapter for 60 percent off. The sale will run until September 1.

Horror game Dead by Daylight’s next chapter will apparently bring the Hellraiser film franchise into the fold, based on a series of teases from developer Behaviour Interactive. That will likely mean the addition of Pinhead (aka the Hell Priest, aka Xipe Totec), the lead Cenobite of Clive Barker’s sadomasochistic demon gang, as the next Dead by Daylight killer.

Behaviour Interactive’s teases have quickly been deciphered by the Dead by Daylight community. The studio sneaked the letters R-A-I-S-E into a series of tweets and images over the past week, and the letters H-E-L-L into an audio file recently posted to Discord. A video teaser released Friday also subtly hints at Hellraiser, showing staticky, VHS-style footage of flower blossoms that evokes a scene from the original Hellraiser movie from 1987.
