In an exciting announcement, game developer Behaviour Interactive has revealed that the highly popular Netflix series Stranger Things has made its much-awaited return in the hit game Dead by Daylight. The new chapter brings back The Demogorgon as a formidable Killer, along with the iconic Survivor duo of Nancy and Steve. Alongside their return, the Underground Complex Map from the Hawkins National Laboratory also accompanies this thrilling collaboration.

Behaviour Interactive had briefly removed the Stranger Things content from the game in November 2021 following the expiration of their licensing agreement with Netflix. However, to commemorate Stranger Things Day, the characters and map have returned, much to the delight of the game's loyal player base.

"We're thrilled to renew this collaboration with Netflix, to bring back the Stranger Things Chapter, including the Underground Complex Map from the Hawkins National Laboratory, and the iconic Survivor duo composed of Nancy Wheeler, a tough aspiring journalist, and Steve Harrington, a former high school jock with a knack for finding trouble," expressed Mathieu Côté, head of partnerships for Behaviour.

The return of the Stranger Things chapter offers players another chance to immerse themselves in the eerie world of Hawkins, Indiana. Fans who may have missed out on experiencing the previous collaboration will now have the opportunity to fully enjoy this exciting gaming experience.

To add to the excitement, all Stranger Things cosmetics, including character skins and accessories, will be available once again in the in-game store. Players can personalize their characters with various items inspired by the show, truly bringing the Stranger Things aesthetic to life within Dead by Daylight.

The Stranger Things chapter is now accessible for purchase on all gaming platforms, allowing players on different systems to embark on adrenaline-fueled matches in this beloved and spine-chilling universe. Whether it's joining forces as Nancy and Steve to outsmart the Demogorgon or taking on the role of the monstrous Killer, there's an array of exciting gameplay possibilities awaiting fans.

Notably, this recent collaboration between Behaviour Interactive and Netflix follows their successful integration of the Alien franchise into Dead by Daylight. The Xenomorph and Ripley were added as playable characters, along with the Nostromo Wreckage map, creating an immersive experience for fans of the iconic sci-fi series.

Moreover, Stranger Things enthusiasts had another opportunity to celebrate their favorite show in gaming, as Fortnite also featured a crossover with the series. For a limited time, players could purchase the Eleven character skin in the game, although it was available for just a single day.

With the resurgence of the Stranger Things chapter in Dead by Daylight, fans of both the show and the game can once again dive into the thrilling and suspenseful world of the Upside Down, battling against its malevolent forces or navigating terrifying encounters as the survivors. So gear up, prepare your strategies, and get ready to face the Demogorgon once more in this thrilling gaming experience.
