Behaviour Interactive has responded after what appeared to be a Dead by Daylight collaboration with controversial streamer TheBurntPeanut caused backlash in its community.
Halloween weekend may have been more eventful for the team behind the hit multiplayer horror game than they may have expected. What started as a relatively contained negative reaction has since exploded into a full-blown breaking point for players, with some reporting that they’ve uninstalled Dead by Daylight after seeing its developers work with TheBurntPeanut.
The Canadian studio was first put on the hook by the more vocal members in its community when they discovered the streamer, who gained popularity over the last year for playing extraction shooters like Arc Raiders, was dipping his toes into the horror multiplayer game for the first time. The Halloween season was bound to result in a small uptick in attention for Dead by Daylight, but for those who have stuck by it through its 10 years of service, the jump scare arrived when the streamer revealed he had been gifted access to its entire rogues’ gallery of Survivors and Killers.
Some people on Twitter were not happy about TheBurntPeanut getting streamer privileges in Dead by Daylight https://t.co/wk5DsrRFeg
