Dead by Daylight film plot details
Given that it is still in the early days of the development process, not much is known about the potential plot for the upcoming Dead by Daylight film.
However, comments made to Collider in January 2024 by Blumhouse vice president Ryan Turek, reveal that the project will lean into the strong horror elements of the game.
“I will say that one of the projects that I’m active on is Dead by Daylight, which is the video game adaptation of a game that’s been around for, like, seven years. I look at that as the celebration of horror that the video game itself is.
“What we’ve learned from Five Nights at Freddy’s is, obviously, steer towards the fans and make a video game adaptation for the fans. I’m a huge Dead by Daylight fan… That one I’m super excited about, and we’re creatively mulling around what the way into it is.”
