Stranger Things Sets Jan. 27 Launch for Dead by Daylight Chapter Featuring Vecna
An official countdown marks the series’ shift into sanctioned tie-ins after its televised finale.
Overview
- Dead by Daylight x Stranger Things Chapter 2 arrives January 27 across major platforms in the franchise’s second crossover with the game since 2019.
- Players can hunt as Vecna (Henry Creel/The First) or survive as Eleven, Dustin, Steve, Robin, or Eddie.
- Behaviour Interactive is promoting the release with a live countdown on the game’s official website.
- The new chapter is positioned as a non-canonical, interactive return to the Upside Down rather than a continuation of the TV storyline.
- Fan petitions and the debunked “Conformity Gate” secret‑episode theory have faded as Netflix readies Tales From ’85 and a reported live‑action spinoff.
