Behaviour Interactive, the game developer and publisher most known for its 'Dead by Daylight' asymmetrical horror game, recently launched 'Hooked On You: A Dead by Daylight Dating Sim' in collaboration with 'Psyop.' This game allows players to interact with the survivors, killers, and creatures of Dead by Daylight in an all-new way that includes casual dates, romance, and loads of humor.
The name 'Hooked On You' itself is a pun on a core Dead by Daylight mechanic where the player assuming the role of the killer strings up survivors that they catch on meat hooks. Hooked On You takes place on a tropical island resort that forces interactions between the player and the many characters of Dead by Daylight. Throughout the game, characters will reveal information about their motivations, their past lives, and more, as the player forges closer bonds with each dating partner.
