Dead by Daylight's Terrifying Junji Ito Collection: Eight New Skins

The asymmetrical horror multiplayer game, Dead by Daylight (DbD), is thrilled to announce a chilling collaboration with legendary Japanese horror manga artist Junji Ito. This partnership brings eight terrifying new character skins inspired by Ito's iconic works to the game.

A Collection of Nightmares

For 40 years, Junji Ito has captivated audiences worldwide with his unique brand of surreal horror. Now, his chilling creations are entering the realm of Dead by Daylight in what promises to be the ultimate horror crossover.

The collection features skins based on Ito's most famous works, including "Tomie," "Hanging Balloons," and "Rumors." Killers receiving new skins are The Dredge, The Trickster, The Twins, The Spirit, and The Artist. The Spirit and The Artist will boast Legendary rarity skins, complete with updated audio and sound effects. Specifically, The Spirit gets a Tomie skin, and The Artist transforms into Miss Fuchi (from "Rumors"). Survivors Yui Kimura, Yun-Jin Lee, and Kate Denson also receive new Ito-inspired appearances.

Junji Ito himself was involved in bringing his creations to life in Dead by Daylight. A video on the official Dead by Daylight X (formerly Twitter) account shows his delighted reaction to seeing his characters in-game. He commented on how terrifying they appeared, even surpassing his own expectations. The video also features Ito playing as The Artist, sporting her Miss Fuchi skin.

The Junji Ito Collection launches January 7th, 2025, on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Prepare for a truly terrifying experience!
