Lightning never strikes twice, that's how the old saying goes. So when Behaviour Interactive announces a new asymmetrical multiplayer action game that seems highly similar to their still-quite-successful title Dead by Daylight, one may be tempted to roll their eyes. But Behaviour aren't doing this to get lighting to strike, they're doing it simply because they love the concept of asymmetrical gameplay and want to explore what else they can do with it. Hence their new title Deathgarden, which puts the focus on a futuristic death sport as opposed to survival horror. It's interesting, but does this new setup still carry a spark within it as well?

Incorrect permanent bans can be appealed, so a locked account isn't gone forever, but temporary bans cannot be altered. With that in mind, Dead by Daylight fans should be encouraged to play nice, as the longer bans can lock players out for as long as a week - which could cause them to miss some of the game's more important even

First up, Steve Harrington will feature the perks Babysitter, Camaraderie, and Second Wind. Babysitter lets Steve unhook survivors without them leaving a blood trail or scratch marks. It also allows Steve and the Killer to see each other's aura for a short time. Camaraderie pauses the Struggle Phase timer briefly if another Survivor gets close. For Second Wind, if Steve heals a Survivor, this perk activates. It gives him the ability to self-heal after getting unhooked as long as he remains outside of the terror radius. The perk deactivates when he fully he

The developer clarified that players will be able to enjoy all of these changes and new Stranger Things content until the end of the PTB, adding, "Chapter 13, along with the other improvements in the 3.2.0 update, mark a big step forward in Dead by Daylight. We are delighted to bring some much-requested features to the game, and we are excited for what the future holds." Unfortunately, console players won't be enjoying the PTB; it's only accessible to Steam players on PC by selecting the "public-test" option from the game's Beta properties. Other changes in this update include a larger number of perks added to the bloodweb from level 40 and up, as well as an improved party management sys

Stake Out : "Getting close to the killer fills you with determination. When standing within the Killer Terror Radius for some time and not in a Chase, you gain a Token up to a maximum. When Stake Out has at least one Token, Good Skill Checks are considered Great Skill Checks and consume one Token."

Deathgarden is still in the alpha stages and a lot of its world and characters still have a peek at this site yet to be developed, but so far it seems like a burst of fun that could work. There are a few issues to be ironed out (gathering enough ammo for runners is a bit tricky), but the five-on-one gameplay works quite nicely, with both sides being vastly different yet feeling equally powerful, providing the opportunity for a lot of strategy. No release window has been announced for Deathgarden yet, but odds are that there will be a lot more opportunities for alpha and beta tests in the near future, so stay tuned for any further info on this impressive multiplayer mayhem.

As previously revealed, the next chapter of Dead By Daylight is bringing a Stranger Things crossover with it, complete with playable characters Steve and Nancy, the Demogorgon, a map inside Hawkins Lab, and a number of Stranger Things -themed perks. Now Behavior Interactive has revealed that those features will be enabled in the upcoming test build, though design changes and dedicated servers are going live fi

Just a few days ago, Behaviour Interactive and Starbreeze Studios delighted droves of horror junkies by teasing Jigsaw as the next Killer for Dead by Daylight , but little else was revealed, leaving many to wonder how the character will play in the game. Now, a recent leak posted on the asymmetrical multiplayer survival-horror title's official subreddit referring to "Jigsaw's Baptism" potentially indicates what the forthcoming Saw Killer's abilities will

Should the leaked information above for Dead by Daylight be accurate, "The Pig" will be a much more oblique Killer than more straightforward murderers like Leatherface , as players using the character will be able to force the Survivors to save themselves before the Reverse Bear Trap's timer runs out instead of offing them outright. Not to mention, the added element of the misplaced key could bring about many interesting team-oriented situations, as those under duress from Jigsaw's diabolical device could be faced with the question of either saving themselves or helping a teammate with their t

Dead by Daylight developers announced the Stranger Things crossover last week with a teaser trailer. The crossover event will add Steve Harrington and Nancy Wheeler, two of the show's characters, as new survivors. The game will also add the first season's big bad The Demogorgon as a new killer. On top of that, fans who have always wanted to visit Hawkins Lab will get a chance as it will also make its way into the g
