Dead by Daylight is celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2026 with an exciting lineup of new content.
As part of this major milestone, the game is introducing iconic horror legends and meaningful new characters.
Most notably, Jason Voorhees has finally joined the roster, and the horror icon Art the Clown from the Terrifier franchise will follow in November.
Additionally, the game celebrates cultural representation with the arrival of Shane Wiigwaas on June 25, 2026, the game's first Indigenous survivor, created in collaboration with the Anishinaabe tribe.
Players can also look forward to The Black Banquet event, featuring festive formal cosmetics.
Beyond new characters, the developers at Behaviour Interactive are committed to the game's long-term future.
Whether through crossover outfits like The Walking Dead and Scooby-Doo or the release of four new chapters annually, Dead by Daylight remains a central pillar of the horror gaming world.
