Dead by Daylight is an asymmetrical multiplayer (4vs1) horror game where one player takes on the role of the savage Killer, and the other four players play as Survivors, trying to escape the Killer and avoid being caught and killed.

The Dead by Daylight: Nightmare Edition contains:

- the original game

- The Curtain Call Chapter

- Shattered Bloodline Chapter

- The Headcase Cosmetic Pack

- Stranger Things which includes Steve, Nancy and the terrifying Demogorgon

- The 80’s Suitcase add-on

- The Bloodstained Sack add-on

- The of Flesh and Mud Add-on

- The Spark of Madness add-on

Survivors play in third-person and have the advantage of better situational awareness. The Killer plays in first-person and is more focused on their prey.

The Survivors' goal in each encounter is to escape the Killing Ground without getting caught by the Killer - something that sounds easier than it is, especially when the environment changes every time you play.
