Set in Cedar Hills, The Casting of Frank Stone follows a group of young friends drawn into the aftermath of a killer’s violent legacy. The story begins amid the horrors of an Oregon steel mill, then opens onto a mystery that reaches across families, generations, and reality itself. Supermassive Games brings its cinematic storytelling to the Dead by Daylight universe, presenting an original tale that explores a wider world beyond the multiplayer game’s familiar Fog.
The defining interaction is choice: decisions shape the story and affect the characters’ fates. Rather than describing a purely competitive horror experience, the game’s listed formats include single-player alongside multiplayer and co-op options, with shared or split-screen play also listed.
Its distinctive appeal lies in pairing emotional dilemmas with grotesque, high-stakes horror. The steel mill’s crimes lead into horrors beyond comprehension, while the friends’ journey gradually uncovers what Stone’s past has done to Cedar Hills. The focus is not just on confronting a killer, but on tracing a dark mystery through an original cast and living with the consequences of decisions made along the way.
