In this 2018 GDC session Behaviour Interactive's Dave Richard shares the story behind developing Dead by Daylight, an asymmetrical survival horror game about avoiding a terrifying killer.

It was an intriguing talk that saw Richard explaining how the team's hopes of making a small game that might catch the attention of a few ended up creating a monster that was still growing more than a year after its 2016 debut, and continues to grow to this day!

If you'd like to watch it for yourself, good news; Richard's talk is now completely free to watch over on the official GDC YouTube channel!
