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.
As a Survivor your main objective is to escape the level through one of two metal gates. To be able to escape, Survivors must repair generators. These generators are scattered across the level. To be able to open the gate, a minimum of four generators must be repaired. This in turn activates the gates and Survivors can now open a gate and escape.
The Killer’s main objective is to stop the Survivors. This is done by catching them and hanging them from one of the Meat Hooks found in the level. Killers can not die, but will fail if the Survivors manage to escape.
In Survive With Friends, up to 4 friends may join a game together against a random killer. This mode is ranked.
In Kill Your Friends Mode, 2-5 friends are able to team up and play matches between themselves. It differs from Normal Gameplay as some features are excluded. Basically, it is a simpler version of Ranked Gameplay.
