In Dead by Daylight you can now earn halos. They don’t help with hiding, but they look very stylish.
Dead by Daylight is currently officially celebrating its fourth birthday. The 4vs1 horror game has made a huge development in recent years and brought numerous innovations. These include not only new killers, maps, and survivors, but also meaningful features like the endgame collapse or a kind of battle pass.
Now, for the birthday, there are plenty of rewards to grab.
How to get the golden crown: On every map, you can find a gift pillar during the event. A player can interact with this pillar and earn a golden shimmer. As a killer, you just need to finish the match while the shimmer is active. Survivors must escape with this shimmer.
As a reward, you unlock a golden crown (which resembles a halo). This is available for all original characters from Dead by Daylight – that is, all except the licensed ones (like Michael Myers, Freddy Krueger, or Ash).
Crown fits “Pay 2 Lose”: As usual, the reward is a cosmetic item that is not particularly helpful. Instead of making the character darker and thus harder to notice, the crown adds a glowing effect. It’s certainly no help to hide from the killer skillfully – but those who still manage it can be proud of themselves. Dead by Daylight generally leans towards “Pay 2 Lose”. Skins that can be purchased for real money are usually lighter or brighter, making them a disadvantage. This way, no one is forced to buy skins from the shop.
What else can you get for the 4th birthday? There are a whole range of rewards that you can earn during the event. A large part of them you get simply by logging in. The following rewards are available:
- Week 1 (06/23 – 06/30):
- Deathslinger: Pecan Crown (Head), Radical Badland Grit (Weapon)
- Claudette: Fitted Button-Up (Torso)
- Everyone: 4th Birthday Charm
- Week 2 (07/01 – 07/07):
- Deathslinger: Red Peak Jacket (Body)
- Claudette: Woolen Berret (Head), Skinny Denim (Legs)
- Everyone: Year 4 Cake Charm
Good time to get started: By the way, the birthday is also a perfect time to get into Dead by Daylight. Because in the next two weeks, there are particularly many offerings that increase the gain of blood points by 104%. This effect is stackable and can lead to you receiving up to 520% more blood points from individual matches – allowing you to quickly level up all desired characters to level 50 and gear them well.
An optimal time to get started and stock up on blood points. Newcomers can also find their perfect killer here.
