Story Highlights
  • Dead by Daylight’s latest chapter explores analog horror.

All Things Wicked will delve into the deep and disturbing nature of horror stories, fulfilling an age-old demand from the fandom. However, in our latest interview with Behaviour Interactive, the team confirmed that it is open to returning to analog horror.

We recently spoke to Dave Richard, the Senior Creative Director behind this iconic multiplayer horror title.

Like the fans, we were curious whether Behaviour Interactive would be interested in another analog horror venture. When asked about plans, Dave Richard gave an encouraging response, even if he did not directly confirm plans.

He acknowledged the positive reactions to Chapter 31, teasing more opportunities to explore this genre.

I think we’ve only scratched the surface of what analog horror can be.

For the unfamiliar, analog horror is characterized by unsettling filmings of horror events, creating an unmatched sense of dread and mystery.

Behaviour Interactive’s first venture into the genre has resulted in The Unknown, a killer the team found disgusting and terrifying, as described by the Creative Director.

The team has now gained a better grasp of this sub-genre after this chapter, and a possible return could lead to a more refined take on analog horror.

Dead by Daylight’s successful take on this sub-genre has motivated the team. A return to analog horror could lead to more disturbing killers, harrowing maps, and new lore elements that further expand this universe.
