Dead by Daylight ‘Chorus of Sin’ Chapter Releases on August 25

Behaviour Interactive has revealed that the next Dead by Daylight chapter, “Chorus of Sin,” will release on August 25. Additionally, the character is available today via the Steam Public Test Build (PTB). 

“Chorus of Sin” marks the first community-led chapter, created through a series of votes, blog posts, and community streams. The killer for this chapter is The Judgement, who features a distinct and unique design based on “divine themes.” The character punishes Survivors with Divine Light, which marks them with Heresy. When downed, marked Survivors may be sent into Exile: a realm of “eternal punishment” where players must avoid hazards at the risk of “speeding up their own demise.” The Killer is also equipped with three character-specific Perks – Celestial Witness, Hex: Under Your Thumb and Lay Waste, adding to The Judgement’s immense power.

Aurora Stardotter is the survivor, who is a spiritual scientist that comes from a world destroyed by The Judgement. Her perks are Fruits of Your Labor, Salvation’s Cry and Boon: Steadfast. All of these help her to assist fellow Survivors and escape from any killer in her path. The chapter will release on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam.

This year, the game will add Art the Clown from the Terrifier movies as a killer in November. In 2027, it will also release a new killer based on the Dead by Daylight spin-off game, The Casting of Frank Stone. Beyond the release of new killers and survivors, next year, a major visual upgrade to the game will release. It will add new animations and models for every character, improved map and environment details, and even dynamic weather effects. New voice lines for certain characters will also be present. Further, a 1v1 mode and “Zombie mode” are in development. A new Scooby Doo-themed collection will also launch later this year.
