Dead by Daylight is known for its thrilling collaborations with various iconic franchises, and in 2025, it's set to feature the much-loved Tokyo Ghoul series. As the developers prepare for the full release, they are currently testing new content and teasing exciting updates, including the introduction of a new killer: Ken Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul.
Kaneki brings his renowned kagune to the game, not just for offensive moves but also as a means of mobility. He can use it to execute impressive leaps by latching onto surfaces, a feature that introduces a unique dynamic to his gameplay. This ability mirrors Kaneki's characteristic ghoul powers from the anime and manga, seamlessly integrating them into the Dead by Daylight universe.
The addition of Ken Kaneki underscores Dead by Daylight's dedication to expanding its character lineup with figures from popular franchises. This move not only offers players novel and thrilling gameplay experiences but also remains faithful to the original source material. Fans of both Dead by Daylight and Tokyo Ghoul can eagerly anticipate how this intriguing crossover will play out upon the update's release.
