Dead by Daylight dev is hiring for a sci-fi shooter
Behaviour Interactive, the studio behind Dead by Daylight, is staffing a triple-A science-fiction FPS measured against a high realism bar.
Behaviour Interactive, the Canadian studio best known for the asymmetrical horror game Dead by Daylight, is staffing up for something that sounds nothing like it. Job listings point toward a triple-A science-fiction first-person shooter, with the company setting what it calls a high realism bar for the project. That is a long way from the foggy maps and chase scenes that made the studio's name, and it suggests Behaviour is investing in a second pillar rather than another horror spin-off.
The move fits a wider pattern in the industry, where live-service studios hunt for a second game to steady their revenue once the flagship settles. A sci-fi shooter is the crowded end of that field, though, and Behaviour would be arriving late against entrenched competition. Nothing official has been announced beyond the hiring drive, so genre, platforms and release window remain guesses for now, but a studio that has spent a decade in one corner is plainly shopping for another address. Whether that ambition becomes a shipped game is a question only a trailer, and time, will answer.
