Here’s a bit more about The Casting of Frank Stone in case you missed the previous announcement post:

The storytelling prowess of Supermassive Games meets the Dead by Daylight universe in a haunting horror game that won’t soon be forgotten.

In the summer of 1980, four friends set out to make their mark on horror cinema. What they capture will trigger the unthinkable. Decide their fate, develop their relationships, and guide their shoot of Murder Mill, a soon-to-be cult classic with an insidious influence… 

In The Casting of Frank Stone, a dark branching narrative lies before you. Your decisions pen the script – the only thing standing between life and death for a group of young filmmakers. Change reality with your choices, unlock new paths with your actions, and discover what horrors your final cut may hold.  

In a story where every move matters, actions can speak louder than words. Explore a cinematic nightmare, testing your wits as you solve environmental puzzles and react to Quick Time Events. Guide your cast of characters through eerie locations and search for clues that hide the bigger picture.  

In some related news, cross-progression is also coming to Dead by Daylight on 22nd July 2024 – allowing players to sync their game progress across all available platforms (with select exceptions related to Nintendo’s platform). There’s also a new update for the game, including the addition of the new survivor Lara Croft from the Tomb Raider series.
