2v8 Returns To Dead By Daylight

Dead by Daylight's highly requested 2v8 game mode is set to return, alongside an expansion of features, which were present in the original release of the mode a few months back.

Product Director, Justin Brown, explained in a recent interview that the team wanted to bring back the mode, but knew that things needed to be bigger and better this time around. As such, new killers (which join those already present from the mode's initial release) include: The Blight, The Spirit, and The Deathslinger. And alongside them arrive four new classes: Shadow, Brute, Enforcer, and Fearmonger.

Map variety also includes new additions: Yamaoka Estate and Grave have been added, and already established maps have been tweaked to better suit the format.

Finally, improvements to survivors (to help players, somewhat, against the tandem killers) have been implemented. Not only have "Unlock Abilities" been bolstered, but players can now utilise "Active Abilities". The Guide, Medic, Escapist, and Scout all have access to these improvements, and the unique perks that come with them.

The game mode will arrive for a limited stint from the 12th to the 26th of November.
