Dead By Daylight. Connecting issue.

Because it's an online game and Game Pass Core (at the least) is required to play online with the exception of free-to-play games.

Others have had this issue and signing out and back in seems to help.

did you install dead by daylight or the special edition?

You can play Dead by Daylight: Special Edition with Xbox Game Pass for Console, or buy it to own.

dead by daylight is purchasable may have been on gamepass and rolled off.

This has reference to being unable to use NVIDIA filters in Dead by Daylight from the GeForce Experience issue reported. Your case has been assigned to me to process further.



Dead by Daylight Microsoft Store (Xbox) version game filter is not supported in GeForce Experience. Only the steam version of Dead by Daylight game filters works in GeForce Experience."

Dead By Daylight is decently popular, but I’m always having issues getting into lobbies and finding people to match against. I don’t know if the connection is just bad or if there aren’t that many people playing.
