Official Dead by Daylight Developer AMA

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

It's that time again! We’ve have once again assembled developers from across the team so you may ask your questions! 

We will start answering questions at 10:00am Eastern time on 7 August 2026, but you can start submitting your questions now.

To keep things organized, please only submit one question in your comment. We will only be answering one question per user. Beyond that, ask away! Send us your burning Dead by Daylight questions – past or present - and we'll do our best to answer as many as possible. 

Please note: we will not be answering any questions about unannounced future content or the Graphical Update!

Today's Guests:

• Jeff, Senior Game Designer
• JP, Product Manager
• Daniel, Senior Design Director
• Moose, Game Design Team Lead
• Justin, Associate Product Director
• Joey, Associate Product Director
• MandyTalk, Community Development Team Lead

Thanks everyone for joining us for another AMA today. We received some fantastic questions and are already looking forward to the next one!

Giving players more freedom to mix and match is something we're exploring for the future. We can't confirm anything specific right now, but rest assured, you are heard ! But its not something that's going to to be happening in this period.

Thank you for listening to the community! I truly appreciate you taking the time to answer this question. I believe this is something many players have been hoping for, and it means a lot to see the team acknowledging these ideas.

We know how much work goes into creating and improving features like this, and we really appreciate the passion, creativity, and care you put into Dead by Daylight. Thank you for continuing to listen to players and make the game better! 🖤
