In The Walking Dead Universe RPG, you will play as people struggling to survive in a hostile world. Exceptional challenges can appear from anywhere – from the lack of essential supplies, from conflicts brewing within the group, from hidden construction flaws in your safe haven, or from approaching walkers hungering for your flesh.
The Walking Dead Universe RPG is now available via the Free League webstore, at hobby stores all across the world, as a Foundry VTT-module, and as PDF at DriveThruRPG.
In The Walking Dead Universe RPG, the player characters must not only hone their physical skills, but deeply explore who they truly are – what drives them to go on, what they consider worth fighting for, and what they’re capable of doing, in the best and worst of times.
There are two ways to play the game – Campaign Mode and Survival Mode:
– In Campaign Mode, it is your goals and choices, and the result of your group efforts, that create the storyline.
– In Survival Mode, you are faced with a dangerous situation that needs to be handled immediately. Survival Mode scenarios often feature locations and characters from the TV series.

Your new best friend ’til the end is here and ready to play. The horror icon Chucky has arrived in Dead by Daylight. Starting today, players can traverse The Fog and terrorize Survivors as the infamous killer doll.
It’s About #$@&%*! Time
As a much-requested character by the Dead by Daylight community, the addition of Chucky brings a playfulness to the game that only The Good Guy himself can muster. While it may have been assumed that his smaller size would make it impossible to bring him into The Fog, the team at Behaviour Interactive, in collaboration with Universal Products & Experiences, worked hard to ensure a smooth transition, making him the first Killer to use a third-person camera.
His unique way of tormenting his victims is matched only by his foul and colorful way with words—and it’s fully reflected in this brand-new Chapter. With his unique playstyle and outrageous lines voiced by his original voice actor Brad Dourif, players can expect a faithful recreation of Chucky’s murderous mayhem in Dead by Daylight.
Playing With Dolls
He may be small, but this Killer’s penchant for mayhem should not be underestimated. In fact, his sinister laugh and unforgettable one-liners may be the last thing players hear. With effective tools for sneaking around the Map, Chucky is a force to be reckoned with. His Special Ability, Hidey-Ho Mode, creates Footfalls, a disorienting audio and visual effect that confuses Survivors with sounds and footprints coming from multiple directions.
While in Hidey-Ho Mode, Chucky can execute two unique actions: Scamper and Slice & Dice. Scamper enables Chucky to vault through windows or beneath downed pallets, giving Survivors an unexpected jump scare. The Slice & Dice action on the other hand lets him rush and leap toward Survivors, injuring them with his knife.
It’s true – being The Good Guy has its perks. Straight out of the box, Chucky comes with three unique Perks—each designed to maximize the playful nature of his cruelty. His first Perk, Hex: Two Can Play, Blinds any Survivor that attempts to Stun or Blind Chucky, making sure Survivors think twice before engaging.
His second Perk, Friends, ’Til The End, proves he’s always on the hunt for new friends. When Chucky hooks a Survivor that is not the Obsession, the Obsession will become Exposed, and have their Aura briefly revealed. When the Obsession is hooked, a random Survivor will scream and become the Obsession.
Chucky’s third Perk is Batteries Included. Whenever a generator is complete, entering its vicinity will grant the Killer a movement speed boost for as long as they remain in range, allowing him to catch up to fleeing Survivors.
Suit Up For Scares
The Chapter also arrives with the Friends ’Til The End Collection, which features two iconic Outfits for Chucky.
The Back From The Dead Chucky Outfit (Very Rare) showcases that nothing can keep The Good Guy down. It features Chucky in his iconic resurrected look all stitched up and ready to go, dressed in his classic striped turtleneck and denim overalls.
In addition, The Good Gal Outfit (Legendary) introduces Tiffany, aka the Bride of Chucky, into The Fog. Donning her signature dress and leather jacket, this Outfit comes complete with new lines voiced by the legendary Jennifer Tilly.
Your new best friend is waiting for you. Dead by Daylight: Chucky is available now via Steam, PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Epic Games Store, Windows Store and Nintendo Switch

With the co-op action-adventure game Gangs of Sherwood about to launch this Thursday, 30 November, we’re delighted to unveil the game’s brand-new trailer, which is the pride of our teams!
In this ambitious new trailer mixing live-action and gameplay footage, minstrel Alan-A-Dale lets you discover the story and the protagonists of Gangs of Sherwood through song.
Andrea Di Stefano, Game Director at Appeal Studios and Maxime Prevosteau, Product Manager at NACON had this to say about Alan-A-Dale and the latest Gangs of Sherwood trailer.
Who is Alan-A-Dale and how does he fit into the legend?
Andrea Di Stefano: “Although he’s not as well-known as other heroes from the legend such as Friar Tuck or Little John, this character is an important member of Robin Hood’s Merry Men. He plays a crucial role in the game as a narrator introducing every new adventure through a humorous puppet show, also used to speak out against Sheriff Nottingham’s tyranny.”
What inspired you for this trailer?
Maxime Prevosteau: “We wanted to pay tribute to this atypical, charismatic character by creating an epic song with a medieval tone that gets stuck in your head! We were inspired by many things, including Disney’s iconic Robin Hood and Aladdin cartoons and even The Witcher.”
Andrea Di Stefano: “It also made perfect sense to cast the talented artist Lenny Mark Irons as Alan-A-Dale in the trailer, since he also lent his voice to the character in the game.”
We hope you enjoy this video as much as we loved creating it!
