Behaviour Interactive has announced thatDead by Daylight’s annual festivities will begin next week in celebration of its 5th anniversary.Dead by Daylight’s anniversaries are commonly associated with a distinct theme, and introduce items, add-ons, and offerings. Last year, during the 4th Anniversary celebration,Dead by Daylightintroduced a Crown cosmetic that could be worn on any original Survivor or Killer’s default head model. Rather, it will be interesting to see whatDead by Daylightdebuts as the exclusive rewards and cosmetics included in its 5th Anniversary content.
Many anniversary items, similar to holiday event items, are exclusive to the event and may not be used afterward.Dead by Daylight’s anniversary events are only available for a limited time, and players are only able to collect an anniversary’s rewards and cosmetics within that period of time. This further encourages fans to play during the event so that they may enjoy the rewards while they are still available. New content may alsoreturn players toDead by Daylightwho are already dedicated fans, and may also be an incentive for new players to join.
But while fans may anticipateDead by Daylight’s upcoming festivities, some fans are still understandably concerned about a number of bugs and glitches inDead by Daylight. For example,Dead by Daylight’s latest DLClaunched last week, featuring a collaboration with theResident Evilfranchise. TheResident EvilDLC includes a new map based on Raccoon City’s Police Department, which could be explored in Capcom’s remakes ofResident Evil 2andResident Evil 3.
Unfortunately, theResident EvilDLC’s newest mapaddition has been inactive since it launched, due to glitches that resulted in players' games crashing. WithDead by Daylight’s 5th Anniversary around the corner, it would be a great way for fans to celebrate if the RPD map was repaired and active during the festivities.
Dead by Daylightis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox X/S.
