Squid Game x Dead by Daylight?

One killer (most likely the Front Man), one survivor, maybe a map. How would you feel?

  • Squid Game does not belong in DBD even remotely. It's not even tangentially a horror property, it is a show that serves as social commentary on how wealth inequality and debt are fundamentally damaging society in general and South Korea in the specific.

  • TBH, I should have watched the show before I voted. Judging by these comments, I have a very bad opinion.

  • As skins sure. other than that I don't think so.

    And maybe a map. but I don't know about killer or survivor

    With the advent of Attack on Titan skins this could lead to other franchises getting represented without the commitment of a full-blown chapter.


    While Squid Game wasn't a very direct horror, it had graphic moments. The theme of "live or die against the odds" in a psychological way fits dbd imo. Saw does that already but more for grotesque horror.

    I prefer squid game over most of saw. but yeah id totally want jonah in one of the squid game suits

  • I'd love a squid killer, idk tho never seen the show so I'm not sure.

  • Would be interesting, I see Gi-hun, Hwang Jun-ho, or Sae-Byeok being the survivor, the killer would either be Cho Sang Woo, The Front Man/Hwang In-ho or Deok Su.

    But until the Stranger things license comes back to DBD I don’t see this chapter happening.

    Squid Game was utter garbage. (spoiler warning?)

    • The acting was subpar (especially from the VIPs).
    • The plot was just ridiculous (like why on earth did they decide to go back into the games???).
    • None of the characters were interesting except Sae-byok.
    • The horror aspect was nonexistent.
    • The writing felt predictable and lazy.

    You are the only person on this planet I think I've ever heard say they don't like Squid Game.

  • If we got Squid Game Legendary skins or a Squid Game paragraph, I wouldn't complain...but I sure wish it were something else.
