Dead by Daylightplayers are always eager to share their opinion of the game and its newest updates. The community loves sharing their elaborate wish lists for character they would look to see appear, and Behaviour Interactive’s announcement teasers excite fans with speculation about who may be included next. As forHellraiser’s Pinhead, fans have continued to share excitement towardDead by Daylight’s newest downloadable-content.
SomeDead by DaylightDLCs have introduced new survivor characters and map realms alongside a new killer, though that isn’t the case withDead by Daylight’s addition of theHellraiserfranchise. Pinhead is set to arrive inDead by Daylightas a lone killer, and players were able to experience the character’s abilities and add-ons in a Public Test Build that took place last month. Today, it was announced that fans of bothHellraiserandDead by Daylightdo not have long to wait for Pinhead’s arrival.

From their time playing as and against Pinhead in the PTB, players have discerned that the killer’s mid-ranged capabilities and passive chain traps make the Cenobite an interesting andunique character inDead by Daylight. PTBs are offered on PC before new content launches that allow players to experience it in a beta test for the developers, and also demonstrate that the newly announced content is arriving soon to the game. Behaviour Interactive has recently announced thatDead by Daylight’s latest downloadable-content is set to launch next week on September 7.
Pinhead is an excting inclusionfor fans of the graphic metaseries and its gruesome cenobite characters. Of course, fans continue to share their desires for other licensed franchises and IPs inDead by Daylight, and the news that a larger DLC that is now well-established is soon being removed has been upsetting for some.
As fans welcome in a new killer, they must also part ways soon with a significant DLC. A recent announcement explained thatparticularStranger Thingscontentwill be removed fromDead by Daylightin November and will not be purchasable afterward. Fortunately, fans will have access to survivors Steve Harrington and Nancy Wheeler as well as the Demogorgon killer character if they purchase theStranger Thingscontent before it is removed, but the Hawkins Laboratory map realm will be discontinued ubiquitously thereafter.
Further, Behaviour has shared today that the RPD map realm, which was added as part ofDead by Daylight’sResident EvilDLC, is temporarily disabled again due to security issues. So while many fans are eagerly looking ahead toHellraiser’s Pinhead arriving next week, players are disheartened that there are still many bugs and issues that they must contend with inDead by Daylight.
