Behaviour Interactive’s asymmetrical horror gameDead by Daylighthas become famous because of its crossovers with major icons of the genre, fromHalloween’s Michael Myers toSilent Hill’s Pyramid Head. However, the experience is built on its own original lore and characters inspired by horror tropes, such as a samurai demon called The Oni who will be added toDead by Daylight Mobilenext week.
The mobile port forDead by Daylightwas released earlier this year and immediately became a hit, but in terms of available content it still needs a lot to catch up with the base game that launched in 2016. Behaviour has been making up that gap with updatesadding content like new game modes toDead by Daylight Mobile. Its “Cursed Legacy” chapter will add The Oni, Survivor Yui Kimura, and two maps making up the Crotus Prenn Asylum.
