Dead By Daylight's Next Collaboration, Ringu, Kicks Off Chapter 23 This March

Speaking in a press release, Mathieu Côté, Game Director for Dead by Daylight, told players:

The importance of the Ringu franchise in Japan, and its influence on culture around the world are undeniable. To be given the opportunity to dive into that legendary story as we bring this creation into Dead by Daylight is an immense honor. This new Chapter will give our players something intensely dark and troubling, a real heart-pounding experience that adds to the already high intensity of our game.

Adding to this further, Reiko Imayasu, Producer at Kadokawa, also weighed in with a fear-inspiring message, telling fans:

We are very excited about the collaboration with Behaviour Interactive and the Dead by Daylight team. We’ll be sending one of our most haunting characters into the Fog to pour down horrors that will rival all the great predecessors. Fans should beware of their heart; this deadly newcomer will definitely strike them, and they will tremble with fear whilst they wait.

You can watch the announcement trailer above but unsurprisingly, we don't have many details beyond this. We're still waiting for confirmation on Chapter 22 release date's in the meantime, but as always, we'll keep you informed when we hear further Dead By Daylight news.
