Behaviour Interactive’s online asymmetric multiplayer survival horror video game, Dead by Daylight, is celebrating its upcoming 10th anniversary with an announcement that every fan of the game has been waiting for! On June 16, 2026, the hockey-masked slasher himself, Jason Voorhees, is coming to the game! The Friday the 13th icon will be a playable killer in Dead by Daylight, and today’s teaser trailer confirms that he’s ready to make survivors pay for their debauchery.

What other horror icons are in Dead by Daylight?

Jason joins a pantheon of horror icons already available in the game, including Freddy Krueger, Ghostface, Vecna, the Demogorgon, Chucky, Pyramid Head, Leatherface, and more! It’s a miracle that it’s taken this long for Jason to stalk his way to the game, but the wait is almost over! Why did it take so long? My guess would be rights issues. Jason is forever involved in some legal shenanigans, but thanks to the initiative called Jason Universe, which emerged to expand the franchise across “entertainment, games, immersive experiences, merchandise and more,” per IGN.

Today’s Dead by Daylight trailer shows Jason infiltrating a vacant cabin, where he finds his trusty machete and a nearby hockey mask to cover his face that only a mother could love. Before the trailer ends, we catch his reflection in a nearby window, the mass of his body breathing heavily as he prepares for war against teens who dare to experiment with sex and drugs.

What exactly is Dead by Daylight?

Here’s the official description for Dead by Daylight, courtesy of Steam:

10 years of horror. 10 years of jump scares and close calls. 10 years of brutal sacrifices and thrilling escapes.

Trapped forever in a realm of eldritch evil where even death is not an escape, four determined Survivors face a bloodthirsty Killer in a vicious game of nerve and wits. Pick a side and step into a world of tension and terror with horror gaming’s best asymmetrical multiplayer.

Survivors play in third-person and have the advantage of better situational awareness. The Killer plays in first-person and is more focused on their prey.

The Survivors’ goal in each encounter is to escape the Killing Ground without getting caught by the Killer – something that sounds easier than it is, especially when the environment changes every time you play.
