Summary

  • Behaviour Interactive is working on a new game within the Dead by Daylight universe called Project T.
  • Project T will be a four-person cooperative shooter, offering a different gameplay experience from DBD.
  • A demo for another new spin-off game, The Casting of Frank Stone, has been released as a fresh story in the DBD world.

Dead by Daylight developer Behaviour Interactive have confirmed that they are working on a new game called Project T. The Dead by Daylight franchise continues to be a massive hit as the game collaborates with more properties. Recent developments have included the debut of Tomb Raider, Castlevania, and Alien characters within the game world. However, the franchise may be growing even more in terms of original content.

One new IP coming out is The Casting of Frank Stone, which recently released a demo. The spin-off is said to be a fresh story set within the Dead by Daylight universe. While early previews mentioned the potential of the game, it is still unknown how this connects to the overall lore of Dead by Daylight. Even so, that hasn't stopped Behaviour from branching out further and working on another spin-off.

Dead by Daylight's Twitter account has revealed that Behaviour is already working on Project T, a new property that is set in the Dead by Daylight universe. While The Casting of Frank Stone follows the Supermassive Games' formula of a story-driven game, Project T is a four-person cooperative shooter. Some key art and assets were shown during the short video highlighting the announcement which included looks at some enemies and locations. However, the important thing to note is that an insider program for the game was mentioned so that participants can help shape the development of the title.

Player Response to Project T's Reveal

Fans from the comments section have shared mixed reactions to the announcement. While some people noted that the change in scenery and style of game could be good for the franchise, Dead by Daylight's unique gameplay helped set it apart from other multiplayer games. Still, a few users who have applied for the playtest and seen early footage have stated that they are curious. Many commenters hoped that it would not be a live-service game because, at early glance, it was very reminiscent of games like Fortnite due to its camera angle.

As the project is still under development, there's a chance that it won't come out immediately. However, the development team has noted that the game's progress has been fast, and that's why there was a need for the insider program. Whether the insider program will also reveal important points of the game was not discussed. However, many fans are hoping that any of Dead by Daylight's Survivors or Killers might make cameos in Project T to further cement the connection between the titles.
