Dear People of The Fog,
— Dead by Daylight Mobile (@DbDMobile) December 18, 2024
The team at NetEase Games is deeply saddened to announce that Dead by Daylight Mobile will officially be leaving app stores on January 16th, 2025, and ceasing operations entirely as of March 20th.
In their statement, the Dead by Daylight Mobile team expressed heartfelt gratitude to players for their time, passion, and dedication to the game. The decision to cease operations is related to changes in NetEase Games' development and operational strategy.
Despite this, the developers assured fans that the core version of Dead by Daylight on PC and consoles will continue to thrive under the leadership of Behaviour Interactive. To soften the blow for Dead by Daylight Mobile players, a Welcome Package will be available for those transitioning to the PC and console versions of the game. This package will provide compensation for loyalty, calculated based on XP progress and money spent in the mobile version.
Starting December 18, 2024, players will be able to receive this package by linking their Behaviour account in the game. This initiative ensures that resources invested in Dead by Daylight Mobile will be compensated in the broader Dead by Daylight universe.
Key information for players:
- Progress and inventory: Players can use the content until March 20, 2025, after which the servers will be permanently shut down.
- Refunds: Refunds will be processed according to regional laws:
Taiwan: From January 16 to April 19, 2025.
Japan and South Korea: From March 20 to June 26, 2025.
EU/UK: Refunds are available within 14 days according to current regulations.
Other regions: Refunds are not available, but players can use existing resources until the game closes.
- Reinstallation issues: Players who delete Dead by Daylight Mobile after January 16, 2025, will not be able to download the game again.
To receive the Welcome Package, you need to have a Behaviour account and a copy of the Dead by Daylight game on any platform where you have played at least once. Starting from 18.12.2014, log into Dead by Daylight Mobile, open the link to the welcome package page, create a new Behaviour account or log into an existing one, select your platform, and claim your rewards by March 20, 2025.
