A new Dead by Daylight teaser has seemingly shown a number of crossovers coming to the extremely popular multiplayer horror game, including Attack on Titan, Alien, and Darkest Dungeon.
As Behaviour commits to years of additional support for Dead by Daylight following the game’s 10th anniversary, a new “Boundbound” teaser has seemingly revealed a number of upcoming crossovers on their way.
Shared on social media, the teaser trailer shows a number of characters hidden within a shifting pool of blood. While the teaser shows a number of existing characters outright, others are more subtle, but fans may have figured out what characters are making their DBD debut.
At the 8-second mark, the trailer appears to be teasing the arrival of Eren Yaeger, the protagonist of Attack on Titan. At this point in the trailer, a grinning figure can be seen in the trailer that looks just like the character’s Titan form in the popular anime. Additionally, the voiceover uses the phrase “war without measure” which could be a reference to the show.
This wouldn’t be the first time Dead by Daylight has crossed over with Attack on Titan, either. In fact, the series made its DBD debut back in 2022 with a number of cosmetics. However, the crossover did not include specific survivor and killers.
Alongside Eren Yaeger, who could likely join the game as a new killer, the Bloodbound teaser appears to tease another Aliens crossover for the game. The Xenomorph was added as a killer to the game alongside Ellen Ripley as a survivor in 2023 as an Alien crossover with a Xenomorph Queen skin as an homage to Aliens.
However, it would seem that the upcoming Bloodbound teaser shows a return to Aliens with a new survivor: William Hudson. As one of the clearest faces in the teaser, there is a very strong likeness to the Aliens character, and they would be a great addition to the game. Further evidence for the Aliens crossover is the mention of “evolution” as the Hudson-like figure appears.
For the third teaser, it appears that Behaviour is adding a killer and survivor crossover with Darkest Dungeon, a game series created by Red Hook Studios, which the Dead by Daylight studio acquired two years ago.
As the teaser voiceover discusses “darkness”, two figures appear in the shifting blood, which appear to be Hellion and Collector from the Darkest Dungeon games. With this in mind, Hellion would be a new survivor for the game whereas The Collector—a mini boss in the original game—would be a killer.
So far, all of these crossovers seem more than plausible for Dead by Daylight, and they seem pretty concrete at the moment. Unfortunately, there is no release date attached to the upcoming crossovers, but they should be coming soon.
