DBD x Star Wars would be insane with perfect killer that’s not Darth Vader

Dead By Daylight has had a lot of memorable collaborations with iconic horror IPs, but it’s clear BeHaviour is branching out from within the confines of straightforward horror. In 2023, DBD collaborated with Dungeons and Dragons and Tomb Raider, and, for 2024, there are leaks the game will crossover with Tokyo Ghoul and Jurassic World. There are also now rumors about the possibility of DBD x Star Wars, and, while it might not sound like a suitable marriage on paper, there is a perfect killer that’s not Darth Vader.

Dead By Daylight x Star Wars rumors explained

Dead By Daylight YouTuber, Schmuckles, has compiled a list of recent leaks and rumors for DBD. The in-depth video goes over the leaks for Tokyo Ghoul and Jurassic World, along with the leaks about the FNAF survivor and killer.

All the leaks included in the video pretty much agree that Tokyo Ghoul and Jurassic World are happening, although there’s some differing views about the FNAF Chapter. However, included in the video is rumors of a Star Wars collaboration.

It’s important to note that the idea of a Star Wars collaboration should just be treated as a rumor, at most, as there’s no evidence to back it up. It’s claimed from a supposed leaker called Blkvle that Disney wants BeHaviour to do a Star Wars collaboration following the success of Alien, but BeHaviour are reportedly not so keen.

Schmuckles notes that Blkvle revealed details about the Resident Evil skin bundles part of the leaked 2v8 mode crossover before anyone else, so that could possibly give the leaker some credit. However, right now, the idea of DBD stepping foot into a galaxy far, far away is just a far-fetched rumor, at best.

The perfect Star Wars killer for Dead By Daylight

If Dead By Daylight was to ever team up with Star Wars, the most obvious killer would be Darth Vader as he’s arguably the most iconic and popular villain. However, the rumor suggests BeHaviour would want a “god” from Star Wars Legends, which leads to the belief that Abeloth would be the perfect killer instead.

She arguably has the most horror-esque design with the smile carved into her pretty face full of sharp teeth. She also has incredible strength and abilities such as being able to use the Force to manipulate objects with her mind.

The only issue is that she could be considered way too OP as she is regarded as the ultimate and most powerful evil in all of Star Wars. However, if it’s true BeHaviour would want someone with godly power from the Legends universe, then Abeloth certainly fits the role from just her look alone.
