The renowned asymmetric multiplayer experience has gained some notoriety for its crossovers within the horror genre, and now, Dead by Daylight has latched onto another.

Shared on Twitter, the official Dead by Daylight account unveiled a notable image that aficionados of Robert Kirkman’s pivotal graphic novel—or AMC’s enduring adaptation—will immediately identify. However, for those who might not be in the know, the image explicitly highlighted that it is a partnership with The Walking Dead.

At this juncture, information is limited, and the post indicates that fans will need to wait until July 8th, 2025, for further updates. If the revelation mirrors many of Dead by Daylight’s earlier partnerships, players could likely encounter some of the series’ cherished characters as Survivors, alongside its most formidable adversaries as Killers—Neagan would certainly appear to be an obvious choice in this scenario.

The announcement comes on the heels of yet another eagerly anticipated Dead by Daylight collaboration, particularly with Five Nights at Freddy’s, featuring the rundown pizzeria as a setting, Springtrap as a Killer, and even a surprising outfit with Matthew Lillard. Behaviour Interactive invested considerable effort into honoring the series’ rich lore while also crafting a credible environment, so it stands to reason they will replicate this with The Walking Dead.

It’s incredible to witness the journey Dead by Daylight has taken since its modest launch in 2016. Adopting the successful formula of asymmetric multiplayer horror established by games like Friday the 13th: The Game—albeit launching prior—it has significantly outlasted other entries in the genre and achieved remarkable success. Not only has it seen collaborations with legendary horror film franchises such as Scream, Child’s Play, and A Nightmare on Elm Street, but it has also incorporated characters from Silent Hill, Resident Evil and Castlevania.
