Dead by Daylight, Death Is Not an Escape

Dead by Daylight Mobile servers will be down for maintenance starting at 12-21-2023, 3:00 AM (ET). This is expected to last about 3 hours and will also force players in the Trials to log off. You are therefore advised to log off earlier to avoid data loss. Users of older versions will not be able to log into the game after the update and must download the latest version. New content will be available after this update. We hope to see you soon in The Fog.
