From the website:
Level 99 Games, acclaimed publisher of video-game-inspired board and card games, today announced a partnership with Behaviour™ Interactive to release a board game based on the hit multiplayer action horror video game, Dead by Daylight. Players are invited to back the Kickstarter campaign starting March 29, 2022.
The board game aims to be a tabletop version of the popular hide-and-seek video game. Two to four players will take on the roles of Survivors, while one will play the role of the savage Killer. In this fast-paced game, Survivors will attempt to discover and repair generators to escape the Trial Grounds, while the Killer must anticipate their moves to hunt them down and sacrifice them one by one.
The board game includes familiar staples of the video game—distinct Survivor and Killer personas, items, perks, interactive props, and the Trial Grounds. The game is accessible for players of all skill levels, and the wide variety of play options allow groups to tailor the game to their tastes.
Dead by Daylight: The Board Game will be available for pre-order on Kickstarter in two versions. The standard edition is priced at $49.99 USD and includes 6 Killers, 7 Survivors, and 2 maps. The collector’s edition is priced at $99.99 USD and includes 16 Killers, 17 Survivors, and 4 maps. The featured Survivors and Killers are drawn from the original cast of Dead by Daylight, and include the complete roster of characters up through the All-Kill DLC, which was released in March of 2021.
