This is especially important, as the game recently opened up to cross-platform play, so now the team at Behaviour has to ensure that all versions of the game are on par with one another so things are balanced in the game’s online ecosystem. Whenever it does come out, the studio says the next-gen versions of the game will be getting a visual upgrade to make use of the more powerful hardware, as well as receive regular updates alongside the other versions of the game on different platforms. Given that the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X don’t have officially announced release dates as of this writing, that’s probably about as specific as Behaviour can get. The studio confirmed plans for a next-gen version of the asymmetrical online horror game on its social channels, where it said that the next-gen versions will launch this holiday season, but didn’t give a specific date. Joining the likes of Fortnite, Marvel’s Avengers, and Cyberpunk 2077 in a growing list of games that will be launching on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X alongside their current-gen counterparts is Dead By Daylight, developer Behaviour Interactive has announced.
