As of date, there are 32 available DLCs, with some being free and some being paid.
There are also several exclusive DLCs that cannot be obtained from any Store.

Overview

DLCs add new Characters to Dead by Daylight and are often, but not always, accompanied by the Developers adding a new Map, themed after the DLC content, to the Base Game.

These DLCs include:

• 21 Chapters, which add a new Killer AND a new Survivor.
  • To date, there are four exceptions to this rule:
    • CHAPTER XII: Ghost Face® and CHAPTER XXI: Hellraiser™ added just one Character: a Killer.
    • CHAPTER XIII: Stranger Things and CHAPTER XX: Resident Evil added three Characters: a Killer and two Survivors.
• 4 Paragraphs (nowadays known as Half-Chapters), which added either a new Killer OR a new Survivor:
  • CHAPTER 3.5: Left Behind and CHAPTER 5.5: LEATHERFACE™ added a Killer.
  • CHAPTER 11.5: Ash vs Evil Dead added a Survivor.
• 4 Clothing Packs, which add additional Customisation Options.
• 1 Original Soundtrack featuring music from the game.
• 2 Character Expansion Packs, adding either all original Killers or Survivors.

There are also several non-available DLCs that were exclusive to certain Streamers, Events or give-aways.

Purchasing a DLC

With the implementation of the in-game Store, in Patch 2.0.0, Players can decide whether to buy a DLC with money on the platforms' respective Stores or with Iridescent Shards (only original Characters) or Auric Cells directly from the in-game Store.

Purchasing a DLC with money will unlock an additional cosmetic Customisation Option for the Characters contained in the DLC.

Earning enough Iridescent Shards to unlock an unlicensed DLC takes approximately 35 hours of active playtime on average.

Licensed DLCs

Licensed Chapter DLCs are generally locked out from purchase with Iridescent Shards.

Trivia

• DLCs containing a Survivor and a Killer and adding a new Map to the Game are labelled as Chapters. DLCs containing just a Survivor OR Killer (up to CHAPTER XII) are labelled as Paragraphs.
  • CHAPTER XII: Ghost Face® broke this rule and all new character DLCs are now referred to as Chapters.
• DLCs containing only Customisation options (now discontinued) were labelled as Clothing Packs.
• The Last Breath Chapter DLC, when originally launched, required the Player to manually install the DLC, this was changed so it is now pre-installed.
• When the Headcase DLC launched, it was wrongfully launched with 5 sets of exclusive DLC clothing. Those had been patched out shortly afterwards.
• All profits made from selling the Charity Case go to the Brain & Behaviour Research Foundation.
