Dead by Daylight is celebrating the spooky festival early as it officially rolls out its own rendition of the Halloween.
The Halloween may still be around the corner and has not rolled out yet in real life. But it doesn’t stop Behaviour Studios from launching The Midnight Grove—the aforementioned Halloween rendition of Dead by Daylight for 2021.
Starting today, October 21st, until November 4th, players will get to experience the game with a new aesthetics. From the creepy lobby, loading screen, themed hooks, to furnished generators, many things during the event will feel fresh with their new looks. This is not to mention the also novel list of items that appear at the Bloodweb.
Pumpkins everywhere
But what is Halloween without the iconic spooky pumpkins that often symbolize the phenomenon? During the event, there would be plenty of jack-o-lanterns that can be purposefully interacted with. Whether it is for completing Tome challenges, getting blood points, or receiving minor buff (or debuff). While Survivors will more than likely participate in this small distraction, even Killers can join in on the fun, too.
Freaky stories
Speaking of challenges, players will want to complete them across the Auris Web for a special unlockable. In particular, some extraordinary frightening stories that were written by Dead by Daylight’s Mikaela Reid herself for the Endless Halloween Festival.
Unlockable cosmetics
Exclusive to the entirety of the 2-week event, two special outfits can be unlocked. For Mikaela Reid, there is the Witching Hour Outfit, which is the same costume she wore before vanishing into The Fog. As for The Doctor, there’s The Transplant Outfit, which depicts the physician in his grotesque form that leads to his madness.
Other unlockable that are unique to the event includes the Sheet Ghost Wraith, Black Cat with Witch Hat, and Nea Scarecrow.
Login bonus
To make The Midnight Grove an enticing place to be in for players, the developers are running a login bonus. For just logging into the game at least once during the event, players get to have 666,666 blood points, completely free.
