The clip focuses entirely on someone listening to a song on a blood-spattered computer, getting through 3 seconds of the track before rewinding it to the beginning and playing it again. Initially, there’s little to go off. However, fans have begun speculating about the clip when comparing it to several cryptic photos that have recently appeared onDead by Daylight’sTwitter feed. The first is a cup of coffee, with the mug featuring a logo for a company called Mightee One Entertainment. The image sported the caption, “been working all night, stay tuned,” and a hashtag reading “화이팅.” The second is a photo of a woman in a sequined dress with the caption “feeling it,” and the hashtags “플렉스,” “스웩,” and “magnum opus.”
Behaviour even changed its Twitter name to Magnum Opus and its picture to an ominous, silhouetted figure. It seems the combination of clues has got theDead by Daylightfanbase thinking, with commenters sharing a range of wild theories on what Behaviour’s cooking up. One fan guessed that the character will be a malfunctioning robot, while another shared the concept of it being a hacker. A bizarre but incredibly prevalent theory appears to be that the killer will be related toK-popsomehow, mainly due to the cryptic hashtags, the personality conveyed in the recent captions, and the fact that Behaviour teased the character was from Seoul in a reply to its coffee tweet.
Regardless of what the clip turns out to be setting up, it’s without question one of the weirdest teases foraDead by Daylightkillerto date. Although no reveal date is officially announced during the teaser, Behaviour Interactive hints that the new chapter won’t be under wraps for long, replying to a tweet praising the song by promising it’d be sharing more soon.
