For a couple of years now, Dead by Daylight has had maps and characters featuring the Stranger Things property. Now, though, the game will be losing out on one of its maps based on the iconic Netflix series.

In a post made on the game’s website, developers Behavior Interactive said that on November 17, 2021, the Hawkins National Laboratory Map would be leaving the game, and would no longer be available. However, that doesn’t mean all of the Stranger Things items in the game are leaving. In reply to a tweet asking if the Stranger Things license, Dead by Daylight’s official Twitter account noted that the Nancy, Steve, and The Demogorgon characters will be staying in the game.
With the exception of the Hawkins National Laboratory, all Stranger Things content surrounding Nancy, Steve, and The Demogorgon will remain part of the Dead by Daylight experience.
If you have purchased Stranger Things content, you will keep ongoing access moving forward. ❤️

It’s unclear exactly why the map will be leaving the game, as the account didn’t mention anything specific. However, as noted by an earlier tweet, the Nancy, Steve, and The Demogorgon skins will be leaving the Dead by Daylight store in November as well. Players who already purchased any of the Stranger Things characters will retain full access to them and can continue using them after they leave the in-game item shop.
Furthermore, players who wish to purchase the character, or any of their outfits, can enjoy a big discount on them, as starting August 18, all three characters and any Stranger Things outfits will all be 50% off, with the characters remaining half off until November 17 and the outfits remaining 50% off until September 8.
