Sometimes putting on a mask reveals who you really are…
Dead by Daylight and Slipknot have teamed up for a menacing new Collection that brings the legendary band’s iconic masks to the terrifying Realms of Dead by Daylight.
Featuring 8 Cosmetics for some of Dead by Daylight's most fearsome Killers, this epic collaboration fuses the game’s heart-pounding gameplay, where a Killer and four Survivors compete in a deadly game of hide and seek, with the horrifying masks that only Slipknot could conjure up.
Garnering critical and commercial success, Slipknot has cemented themselves as one of the most important heavy metal bands of their era. Their attention-grabbing masks, seen on stage and on their album covers, have served as a powerful vehicle of expression, reflecting the band's apocalyptic sound and the members behind its orchestration.
Inspired by the band’s recent looks, The Slipknot Collection features masks for The Wraith, The Deathslinger, The Doctor, The Clown, The Hillbilly, The Blight, The Trapper, and a masked full Outfit for The Legion (Frank). Aside from the Outfit for The Legion (Frank), these masks can be mixed with existing and future Cosmetics, allowing players to craft some truly twisted looks as they hunt down Survivors.
With their aggressive sounds, chilling themes, and their gruesome masks, Slipknot is no stranger to the world of horror, making them a perfect match for Dead by Daylight.
Dead by Daylight’s Slipknot Collection is available now.

About SLIPKNOT
There was never a band like Slipknot, and there will never be another. Like a spore out of the Midwest, they’ve quietly bloomed into the most uncompromising, undeniable, and unique presence on the planet whose influence transcends genres and generations. Since sowing the seeds for revolution in Iowa during 1999, these musical outliers have captured a GRAMMY Award alongside 10 nominations, scored 12 Platinum / 41 Gold album certifications around the world, and logged over 8.5 billion global streams and 3.5 billion video views to date - unprecedented for a rock act in this generation or any other. Rolling Stone cited the seminal platinum-selling 2001 album Iowa among “The 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time,” while The Ringer attested, “They’re the most important heavy band of their era.” In addition to marking the group’s third consecutive #1 debut on the Billboard Top 200, their sixth full-length album, WE ARE NOT YOUR KIND, bowed at #1 in twelve countries worldwide in 2019. Selling out shows on multiple continents, they deliver an irreplicable multi-sensory experience on tour and through their own festival Knotfest. With their seventh studio album, THE END, SO FAR, Slipknot are back, and nothing will be the same again.
