The latest Tome — updates adding challenges to unlock lore, cinematics, charms, cosmetics, and bloodpoints — Tome 11: Devotion brings time-limited cosmetics and charms based around survivors and killers who have new memories to earn.

These include Charlotte and Victor Deshayes (The Twins), David King, The Observer, Jeff Johansen, and The Legion. 

Of particular note is survivor David King, and his new memory “The Importance of Being King.” As boasted by Behaviour Interactive, King has become Dead by Daylight’s first “LGBTQIA2+” character (Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans, Queer, Intersex, Asexual, Two-Spirit, and more). 

“When Dead by Daylight first released in 2016, the playable characters – including both Killers and Survivors – totalled seven,” the official statement began.

A trademark titled "Hooked On You: A Dead By Daylight Dating Sim" seems to indicate that Behaviour Interactive has some interesting plans for its asymmetric survival game.

In Tome 2, we learn King’s vicious streak comes from his abusive father, finally having enough and pummeling him for raising a hand to his mother. Based in part on the analysis from GaymerX, Behaviour determined David King would be the candidate for this initiative.

Dead by Daylight has been active in the LGBT+ community for a while now both in terms of in-game accessories and supporting diverse content creators, so why was now the right time for an LGBT+ narrative?

After all, the franchise's first confirmed queer character arrived nearly two years ago, and there had been no word since. Now, a longtime fan-favorite killer has been confirmed as queer.

In Dead by Daylight #4 by Nadia Shammas and Dillon Snook, Susie takes the spotlight for the final chapter in the Legion's bloody origin. And it also helps when identifying to these characters to leave some elements to interpretation of our players.”

Those looking to learn more about David King can play through Tome 11 which is currently available in Dead by Daylight and also shares insights into the stories of The Twins and The Observer.

“David is a popular character. That growth isn’t just about adding new characters, but also about expanding on the backstories of Dead by Daylight’s existing characters, too. Richard didn’t go into every specific factor in the decision to choose David for this LGBT+ announcement, but he said community sentiment including those ships definitely played a part.

“Of course.

However, he prized being an adrenaline junkie and a desire to fight more.

After a lifetime ban from rugby following an assault on a referee, and money not being an issue to him, King merely retired, and turned to everything from illicit bare-knuckle fighting clubs, to acting as a “debt collector” (quote marks intended, and suggesting far more).

Out of work, he lives with a friend, only to lose his next fight- lacking the anger he once projected onto his opponents from his feelings to his father.

As heavies demand King’s friend pay his gambling debts and he rushes to his aid, the gang’s leader offers King a job in exchange for clearing the debt, the aforementioned debt collection. 

While the audio logs from Tome 11 have not yet been added to the game’s Fandom wiki, the cinematics have been uploaded to YouTube.

It’s not something that we’ll start to do, like having stats in the bio that says their exact age, their exact sexuality and stuff like that,” Richard said. Let us know on social media and in the comments below.

“Characters are the lifeblood of many lasting stories, and throughout the years, we’ve seen our community embrace our own with an inspiring level of enthusiasm.”

“Even before the arrival of The Archives – an addition that developed Dead by Daylight’s narrative with backstories and memories – players forged connection with their favourite characters,” Behavior Interactive continued.

“For many, those connections led to an interest in learning more – more about the personal lives of The Entity’s chosen, their defining relationships and romantic connections.”

“As the world of DBD widened,” Behavior Interactive explained, “it was integral to ensure that our growing cast of characters was representative of our vast and diverse community, all of whom have stories of their own.”
