TheDead by DaylightYouTube channel has posted a video showing off some of the cosmetics included in the newRockabillyCollection complete with a backdrop of a retro bowling alley with a slow and unsettling version of Rockabilly music. The outfits shown in this trailer are for the survivor characters, Élodie Rakoto in an outfit set called50’s Night Out,Ace Visconti inRetro Party,and Felix Richter inBowling Night. This collection follows theHanamiCollectionand will be available for all survivors at the in-game shop.
This collection leans more into the Japanese themeDead by Daylighthas been delving more into as time goes on. With other Japanese-themed additions includingThe Spirit,The Oni,and most recentlySadako Risingand theHanamiCollection. Adding the Rockabilly trend is a very interesting idea since it not only captures a culture popular in Japan, but also in other parts of the world, making it a little universal in nature. The culture’s melting pot of upbeat music, bright and dark colors somehow fits right in with theDead by Daylightcosmeticsalready present.
Japan has some of the most iconic fashion trends and horror franchises, so this one is a welcome addition toDead by Daylight’s DLCin the lineup.Dead by Daylightcosmetic packs have always had a vibe to them that makes it easy for anyone to add clothing to their survivor to match their personal style, or just to stand out less on the map, so they won’t catch the killer’s attention. The outlandish nature of them also makes the game that much more fun to play with friends.
WithDead by Daylightbecoming a board gamesometime soon, the cards are on the table for Behavior to go above and beyond with other DLC killers, cosmetics, and even survivors in the future. If fans like this set of cosmetics, then it leaves the door open forDead by Daylightto delve even deeper into Japanese fashion culture, maybe even finding their way into Harajuku someday.
