Is Geralt of Rivia a horror character? It used to be that he fit, pretty 50/50, into both that genre and fantasy. But now, the spooky side of his story just scored a huge win, as video game studio Behaviour Interactive announced that the world and aesthetics of The Witcher was coming to their massively popular horror project, Dead by Daylight. Specifically, the game famous for its skins is introducing outfits to transform players into their favorite denizens of The Continent.

The announcement came from PAX East 2025, where Dead by Daylight and its developers were hosting a widely-attended panel in honor of the game's 9th anniversary. Naturally, the Dead by Daylight team wanted to mark the occasion with a couple of huge teases for their future, and decided it was the perrfect time to drop this absolute bomb on us. A quick clarification, though - the Witcher that's coming to the pulse-pounding game franchise isn't the one we see on Netflix, but the one from games like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

"Our favorite of the Collection is of course Geralt’s Legendary Outfit for Vittorio Toscano," said Dead by Daylight product director Rose Li in a statement. For those unaware, Vittorio is one of the game's 45 pre-existing survivors, whose character model will be used to bring Geralt's (let's face it, gorgeous) looks into the game. But the fantasy star's appearance won't be the only thing translating between the games.

"Not only will it let players essentially take on the exact look of The White Wolf," Li continued, "But we’ve also added some really nice details as part of this Outfit. Geralt will have unique lobby animations, and best of all, brand-new voice lines recorded for our game by the original voice actor, Doug Cockle."

I'm just saying - original voice actor Doug Cockle isn't voicing Geralt in any other fantasy games, is he? Maybe I'm biased, but that's a win for the creepy kids.
