Stranger Things Chapter
In 2019, Behaviour Interactive introduced the crossover between Dead by Daylight and Stranger Things, expanding their repertoire of horror collaborations, which already included renowned franchises such as A Nightmare on Elm Street and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Unfortunately, the licensing agreement concluded in 2021, resulting in the removal of elements inspired by the TV show. However, the Stranger Things chapter has now made a comeback, granting players access to the Underground Complex Map located within the Hawkins National Laboratory.
Returning Characters of Stranger Things
The returning characters include The Demogorgon, Steve Harrington, Nancy Wheeler, and the Jonathan Byers Legendary Outfit. Players will have access to the Underground Complex Map.
Additionally, all Stranger Things outfits are once again available for purchase. Regarding Perks, each initial Stranger Things character was equipped with three unique ones.
Following the Chapter's removal, these Perks were categorized as General Perks. They will now revert to their original names. In a subsequent update, they will regain their status as exclusive character Perks. Progress made with these Perks in the general category will remain unchanged.
However, unlocking further Perk Tiers will necessitate purchasing the Character Perk from the Shrine of Secrets or advancing the Stranger Things characters to Prestige 1, 2, and 3. Stranger Things-related Achievements/Trophies will also not be reinstated, according to the company.
"As you may know, the Stranger Things Chapter left Dead by Daylight in November of 2021, after its original release in 2019. Now, on Stranger Things Day of all days, this beloved Chapter will once again be made available to all players," the company said in the statement.
