Dead by Daylight - Nintendo switch

Product Description

Dead by Daylight for Nintendo Switch plunges you into a tense, asymmetric 1 vs 4 horror showdown where every chase, hiding place, and fatal mistake matters. One player becomes a relentless Killer hunting down four Survivors whose goal is simple: repair generators, avoid the Killer, and escape. With a constantly evolving roster of iconic Killers and Survivors, emergent maps, and unpredictable matches, each game is a suspenseful, adrenaline-fueled story of terror and survival.

This Switch edition brings the full cat-and-mouse experience to Nintendo’s hybrid platform—perfect for haunted couch sessions or quick handheld matches—while keeping the core mechanics that made the game a modern multiplayer staple: high-risk stealth, tense teamwork, and powerful Killer abilities that force Survivors to adapt on the fly.
