There have been massive changes made to the Dead By Daylight Year 10 roadmap, but the original Asian folklore Chapter is still set to come out in September. We know this Chapter will provide a Killer and Survivor. While we don’t know anything about the DBD Killer other than BeHaviour seemingly shooting down the idea of them being a Spider Lady, an alleged Dead By Daylight leak provides a first look at a female “drummer” Survivor.

Dead By Daylight leak shows first look at female “drummer” Survivor

On the leaksdbd subreddit, the Survivor for the Asian folklore original Chapter in September has possibly leaked. The screenshotted slide includes supposed concept art of the character with details.

The details say she is called The Drummer, but her name is Dailsay Joy ‘DJ’ Anurak. She is from Thailand and in her late 20’s, and she is said to be “confident, charismatic, fun and aloof”. There are no mention of perks, but it says that she is “social and with strong human connection,” and that she is “someone everyone wants to befriend”.

As for her appearance, the concept art includes her in a band playing drums. She is wearing red headphones, she has shoulder length black/dark brown hair, and she’s wearing pink jeans, black boots, and what appears to be a yellow jacket with symbols. You can see the leaked concept art on leaksdbd unless it gets deleted/removed. We cannot include the pictures here.

Unfortunately, the source of these images has not been shared. However, in another post, RuthlessLeaks was cited posting an image of the alleged Survivor, but they have now deleted their X account and Discord, citing wellness reasons.

We don’t know if this Survivor leak is legitimate or not. If it is legitimate, then it means Jorōgumo is even more unlikely to be the Killer. This was spotted in the FNAF map on one of the arcade machines, and people thought it was a clue as to the Asian folklore Killer. However, if we have a female Survivor, Jorōgumo seems unlikely as they are a beautiful Spider Woman that preys on young men. They are also of Japanese folklore rather than Thai.

We will have to wait and see whether this leak is legitimate. The PTB has been delayed, but it will happen in early-September with the Chapter on course for late-September.
