*Enjoy the game with Japanese subtitles turned on.

This academic book explores the paradoxes of life, the contradictions in our past, present and future selves. Players can unlock the memories of Yui Kimura, the nurse, and the observer.

With the release of the latest archive, Yui faces a variety of herself in a recurring nightmare, where she may have made different choices in her life. A life where she followed her dreams and never left her hometown of Hida. A life in which she found a safe and secure job and gradually forgot her dreams. The darkest life is the life of a man who became a murderer, killing the man who attacked her instead of turning him over to the police.

This academic book ultimately recognizes seemingly insignificant choices as the norm. It explores the butterfly effect, or what observers call the avalanche effect, which triggers the collapse of everything you thought was true.

As usual, players can get great skins on the free track in the lifts, but also exclusive skins for Nurse, Yui, Oni, Claudette, and Felix in the premium track.

■New Challenge: Glyph Challenge
Introduced as a new type of challenge within this academic book, the Glyph Challenge can be accessed on the Observer's Auris Web. In both killer and survivor play, new interactive items will be available while a player's match is taking place. More glyph challenges with new interactions can be expected in the future.

*The full game of Dead by Daylight is required to play the new academic book VI "Branching" in the archive. For home console users, purchase the PlayStation 4/ Nintendo Switch exclusive software and update your game to the latest state to enjoy the new content and events.
