Dead by Daylight continues to bring together an eclectic mix of franchises, and now it’s Tokyo Ghoul’s turn to join the fray.

In 2025, the Tokyo Ghoul franchise is back in the spotlight thanks to a collaboration with the popular asymmetrical horror game Dead by Daylight. Ahead of the full release, the developers are testing new content and teasing updates, including the arrival of a new killer: Ken Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul .

Kaneki utilizes his iconic kagune not only for attacks but also as a tool for mobility. With it, he can perform leaps by latching onto surfaces, adding a unique twist to his gameplay mechanics. This ability reflects the character's signature traits from the anime and manga, blending his ghoul powers seamlessly into the world of Dead by Daylight.

The inclusion of Ken Kaneki demonstrates Dead by Daylight's commitment to diversifying its roster with characters from beloved franchises, offering players fresh and exciting experiences while staying true to the source material. Fans of both series can look forward to seeing how this crossover will unfold when the update releases.
