Dead by Daylight | Leaked Chapters Bring Excitement and Skepticism
Anticipation Builds for 2025-2026 Content
Recent rumors point to thrilling collaborations for Dead by Daylight, with some insiders confirming significant content incoming. The community remains divided on how authentic these claims truly are, sparking a lively debate as 2025 progresses.
Confirmations and Speculations
Insiders have shared that the Walking Dead chapter is locked in for July 2025, featuring Rick and Michonne. This follows the launch of the Five Nights at Freddy's chapter, setting a pivotal tone for the year. However, a lot of chatter surrounds the November release, speculated to introduce characters like Jack Baker, Ethan, and Rosemary Winters from Resident Evil.
One player voiced concerns about the Resident Evil crossover, saying, "If RE gets a third chapter before any other franchise gets a second Iโm gonna be pissed." This sentiment reflects a larger community feeling that prefers fresh IPs over repetitive collaborations.
The Jorลgumo Leak Gains Traction
A potential addition of Jorลgumo, a mythical spider-woman, as the next killer has garnered mixed reactions. Community members are curious about the leak's timing, coinciding with discussions about the new map. One user stated, "Jorogumo makes sense, as thereโs anticipation for a spider killer," while another doubts the accuracy of claims about the Resident Evil characters, labeling them as merely speculative.
There is a resounding agreement that while Dead by Daylight has seen many Japanese-themed chapters, the community yearns for broader folklore representation. One comment reads, "Japan is so underrated!" pointing towards the need for diverse cultural inclusion in future chapters.
Community Sentiment: A Mixed Bag
The reactions to the leaks are generating a blend of enthusiasm and doubt:
