Lara Croft joins Dead by Daylight as its newest Survivor

Behaviour Interactive :

Montréal, Canada – June 25, 2024 – TOMB RAIDER's Lara Croft, one of the most iconic video game characters of all time, joins the gruesome world of Dead by Daylight as its newest Survivor. 

Lara Croft has survived expeditions few would dare attempt, locked eyes with death and lived to tell the tale… Now, she must face yet again a dark adventure shrouded in Fog. ​ 

Players keen on putting Lara’s survival skills to the test can do so right now in the limited-time public test-build on Steam ahead of the Dead by Daylight: Tomb Raider Chapter official launch on July 16. 

An Expedition into Horror 

While Dead by Daylight marks her first foray into the horror genre, Lara Croft herself is no stranger to terrifying encounters. From claustrophobic tunnels, to mysterious tombs, to ravenous beasts, Lara has narrowly escaped the jaws of death on countless occasions. Each experience has shaped her, bestowing upon her a wealth of survival expertise and ancient knowledge along the way. ​ 

Trapped in the bleak Realm of the Entity, players will now be able to step into Lara’s boots as she seeks the greatest treasure of all: a way to escape. 

While stripped of her trusty bow and pistols, her greatest weapons remain intact. Her unwavering tenacity, wealth of survival expertise, and bravery are represented with 3 unique Perks to balance the scales in her favor. 

With her experiences and skillset, Lara Croft perfectly embodies the characteristics needed to survive in The Fog and is right at home in the world of Dead by Daylight alongside other iconic characters. Though she may be well-prepared for the Trials ahead, in the Entity’s twisted world, the future is never promised.
