Dead by Daylight is one of the first asymmetrical horror games – a one versus four online multiplayer game where one player takes on the role of a savage killer, while the other four players play as survivors, trying to escape the killer and avoid being caught – and definitely one of the most influential, inspiring both the recent Friday the 13th and Predator: Hunting Grounds games. And while the game began with its own creations, inspired by classic horror monsters and archetypes, it has also amassed actually licensed horror characters over the years, such as Michael Myers from Halloween, Ghost Face from Scream, among others.

Now, you can add Nancy and Jonathan from Stranger Things to the game in the recent Dead by Daylight DLC as they "team up to expose the dark secrets hidden within the Hawkins Laboratory"! You can see them for yourself in the trailer at the top of the article!

And here's the official description for the new additions:

The new content includes the first Legendary Set available for a Stranger Things character by transforming Steve Harrington (in appearance only) into one of the series’ main protagonists in Jonathan Byers. The other content is the Moment of Truth Collection, a Very Rare mix-and-match outfit for Nancy Wheeler called the Impulsive Activist Outfit.

Nancy’s Impulsive Activist Outfit is available now for 1,080 Auric Cells in the in-game store, while the Jonathan Byers Legendary Set for Steve Harrington can be purchased for 1,485 Auric Cells. Obviously, you’ll need to have the Stranger Things DLC to use these in the game.

Meanwhile, the new DLC is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile devices right now!
