Dead by Daylight Reviews
The game has its flaws and problems and it could have done with much more variety to it. But the core is amazing. The idea is great. This is really something new and fresh in the horror genre.
Horror has never been creepier, This game keeps it tense and fun.
I did have fun playing Dead by Daylight as it does have some great moments, but there are so many issues making it hard to reach those.
Dead By Daylight is the latest asymmetric horror survival game out on the market. This one having been developed by Behaviour Interactive and published by Starbreeze Studios. With such a simplistic four versus one method the game takes on the hunter versus hunted gameplay head on.
Great game to play with friends or in the dark if you enjoy a thrill.
Dead by Daylight is not a game that had big budgets to back it up, so not being perfect is understandable, however we do not see any excuse on not fixing the mistakes they faced on PC before the release of the console version. But to be fair, the game is highly entertaining specially if all your friends are in the same lobby playing both factions. We have hopes for the future of the game as we can see the developers are already working on new content.
Dead by Daylight is asymmetrical multiplayer done right. There are few games like this out there, and this is one of them at the top. If you can handle the high tension atmosphere and dark themes, check it out with some friends.
If you are new to the game or don’t own any other consoles, I feel this should be a must-own and a vital component to your collection. Dead By Daylight has a solid community, and it really shows. I rarely had a long wait for a game, as either killer or survivor.
Overall, there are better ways to play Dead By Daylight (it's free with Xbox Game Pass) but, it plays really well on Switch and if you don't have any other platform, it's a great game that is a worthy addition to your Switch collection.
Conceptually I'm a big fan of asymmetric multiplayer, and am always eager to see how another team has tried to tackle this tricky formula...
Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer game you'd love. The game concept is just amazing despite the small issues, but I am really excited to see how they will improve this game. It's a game you'd want to play over and over again for a few hours.
Dead by Daylight is a good game for playing solo or with friends. If you prefer a multiplayer game where you have to think as opposed to just shooting someone in the face, check it out.
In terms of a good concept and interesting idea, Dead by Daylight has it all. However unfortunately in practice it doesn't work and you would probably regret playing it after a while.

i]Dead by Daylight[/i] has the groundwork for a great game but stumbles in its execution. It could be so much more with just a little more polish. Hopefully, it will inspire better products of this variety, because the concept contains a bundle of promise. Horror fans will find a lot to love - as long as they keep their expectations low. Nevertheless, for all its sins it is still quite addictive and undeniably fun, at least in the right conditions. It's easy to see how it has amassed a fanbase and warranted a port to the Switch.
Ultimately Dead by Daylight is the best at what it does. It’s a competitive hide-and-seek game with a gruesome polish on it. Not even Behaviour Interactive themselves can outdo Dead by Daylight, their own game Deathgarden closed down its servers earlier this year.
Scramble to survive the night or relentlessly hunt down your prey: Dead By Daylight lets you play either side!
I’m sad to admit it, but Dead by Daylight on Nintendo Switch is a huge let-down. I love the game, and while I was excited to get to play it on a handheld format, its lagginess, framerate issues and massive graphical downgrade mean that I just can’t recommend it on Switch
If you love co-op or horror or both, I highly recommend checking out Dead by Daylight. It offers a refreshing take on so many different game mechanics. This title really does bring something unique to the table. Aside from a couple of minor issues the console release really live up to the legacy that Dead by Daylight has already fostered since its initial release. If you’re in the market for a great co-op gaming experience in a unique setting this game will deliver.
