Stefan Beauchamp-Daniel, the producer working onDead by Daylight, spoke on the livestream with the game’s director Mathieu Côté and confirmed that the game would be receiving a crossplay feature. This feature will be added to the game by the end of the year and will allow friends across all platforms except formobileto play together in modes such as Surviving with Friends and private matches.
The exact release date of the crossplay feature wasn’t mentioned, but the studio did say that the update would be experienced first by those who play on PC. This is a normal occurrence fornew chaptersand features for the game, sinceDead by Daylight’stest servers are on the PC, so players on that platform will be able to try out the cross-play features first. After that (and some time before the year ends), cross-play will expand to the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch. Cross-progression is also something that theDead by Daylightteam is thinking about, but no specifics were discussed on thefourth-anniversary livestream.
Crossplay is huge for players with friends who game on different platforms, especially after theDead by Daylightteam announced thatSilent Hill’s Pyramid Head would be coming to the game as well as other new characters and the Midwich Elementary School map. This new content is currently available on the PC test servers, and hopefully cross-play features will soon follow.
Dead By Daylightis available on PC, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and mobile.
