Dead by Daylight franchise expands with new game and free launch event

In celebration of Dead by Daylight's eighth anniversary, the game's developer Behaviour Interactive announced the surprise release of a new game titled What The Fog. This latest addition to the Dead by Daylight universe brings a roguelite experience that players can initially snag for free. Unlike its predecessor, What The Fog revolves around cooperative play in pairs, tasking players with defeating hordes of monsters. The game involves navigating through a cursed board game with varying levels of difficulty, offering characters such as Dwight, Claudette, and Feng Min for selection.

For those interested in grabbing a free copy of What The Fog, you’ll need to link a Behaviour Interactive account with Steam to secure a free key, although the offer has a limited quantity. On other platforms, such as Xbox Game Pass, a more extensive gaming collection is available. The gaming community can expect continuous updates and expansions for Dead by Daylight, as well as this exciting new addition to the horror franchise.

To get What The Fog for free, create or link an existing Behaviour Interactive account with your Steam account and claim a key while supplies last.
