<br>Dead by Daylight is a popular asymmetrical survival-horror game that entails a group of survivors being stranded in a limbo-state of reality that's overlooked by an evil eternal presence called, "The Entity". They are forced to take trails and survive situations in various realms while evading a killer within their own stomping grounds. This game was originally released on June 14, 2016, by Behaviour Interactive and it's now available on multiple gaming platforms. Players take control of four distinct survivors that each has its own perks and stats while the killer is also controlled by another player, as well .
