Chucky From Child's Play is Dead By Daylight's newest killer. The creepy Good Guy Doll returns to the horror scene right after Halloween, making his debut in the survival horror multiplayer game. While the developers didn't release any gameplay footage, they did provide a trailer and a release date along with some details and screenshots. Overall, Chucky's arrival bolsters the already incredible roster of monsters. So, when is Chucky's Release Date in Dead By Daylight?

Dead By Daylight Chucky Release Date

Chucky makes his way into Dead By Daylight on Tuesday, November 28th, 2023. Additionally, Brad Dourif reprises the role of the new killer, which should come as good news to fans of the series.

For those who don't know, Chucky comes from the 1988 movie, Child's Play. The success of the film led to several sequels (seven, in fact) a new TV show on its third season, and so much more. I won't spoil the movie for those who haven't seen it, but the original is a classic and a must-see for those who find dolls scary.
