A recent leak from a reliable Dead by Daylight insider suggests that Behaviour Interactive's popular asymmetrical horror game might soon introduce an exciting new feature inspired by Fortnite. Epic Games' battle royale phenomenon has influenced numerous multiplayer titles with its successful live-service model, and now Dead by Daylight appears to be following suit. Since its 2016 PC debut, Dead by Daylight has dominated the horror genre, and the possibility of adopting Fortnite-style Creator Codes has sparked excitement among fans and content creators alike.

Dead by Daylight pits four Survivors against one Killer in intense 1v4 matches. The game features iconic horror characters like Leatherface, Saw's The Pig, and Halloween's The Shape. With Behaviour Interactive planning significant updates for 2025, including the recent Tokyo Ghoul crossover, the introduction of Creator Codes could further enhance the game's community engagement.

The leak, shared by user dvveet and credited to insider Wazzup, indicates that Dead by Daylight's Creator Codes will function similarly to Fortnite's program, though specific details remain unclear. Behaviour Interactive recently outlined their April 2025 content roadmap, which included events like Horror Con Scotland and the Blood Moon event, while also promising May updates about the Creator Program. Speculation suggests these codes might initially be limited to select creators, unlike Fortnite's more inclusive approach.

While the Tokyo Ghoul crossover was well-received, the Creator Code leak has sparked mixed reactions. Smaller content creators expressed concerns about potential exclusivity, with some fearing the program might only benefit established Dead by Daylight partners. This has led to discussions about how Behaviour Interactive could ensure fair opportunities for all creators.

Dead by Daylight's Update 8.6.1 brought numerous improvements, including fixes for the Tokyo Ghoul killer and adjustments to the Blood Moon Event bonuses. The update also refined The Ghoul's abilities, maps, and perks to maintain balanced gameplay between Killers and Survivors.
