Joining her is new Survivor **Vee Boonyasak**, a fiery drummer whose passion for music is matched only by her drive to survive. Currently available to play via the Public Test Build (PTB), *Sinister Grace* promises not only a unique thematic direction but also new mechanics, lore, and perks that will give both Survivors and Killers new toys to master.

At the heart of this Chapter is **The Krasue**, based on the mythical entity of Southeast Asian legend. Often portrayed as the floating head of a woman with entrails trailing beneath, the Krasue is a terrifying symbol of hunger, transformation, and the body turned monstrous. It’s a horror rarely seen in Western media—and exactly the kind of unsettling brilliance that Dead by Daylight fans have come to crave. > “We wanted to deliver something for the gore fans,” says Creative Director **Dave Richard**. “Her body rips and peels open like a blister under pressure. It doesn’t get better than this.” The result is a Killer who is equal parts **elegance and horror**—an opera singer cursed to become a floating, disembowelled head with an unforgettable silhouette and a gameplay loop that offers versatility, speed, and gut-wrenching damage. ## Who Is The Krasue in Dead by Daylight? In *Dead by Daylight*, the Krasue is known as **Burong Sukapat**, a gifted opera singer whose rise to fame came with a heavy price. Lured by the promise of eternal beauty and renown, she struck a deal with a malevolent force—only to find herself overtaken by a curse that separates her soul and body each night. Once her transformation begins, she becomes a horror of entrails, blood, and song—a creature of appetite whose legacy now lives within The Entity’s realm. ### Krasue Gameplay – Float, Spit, Whip, Repeat As a Killer, **The Krasue offers a dual-form playstyle** unlike anything currently in the game. Players can alternate between two distinct forms: - **Floating Head Mode**: Increased speed and access to the **Intestinal Whip**, a melee attack that—yes—is exactly what it sounds like. Devastating in chase and deeply unsettling to witness. - **Grounded Body Form**: While on foot, she can launch the **Leeching Gland**, a projectile that infects Survivors and lowers their resistance, opening them up for faster downs. This combination of range, speed, and status effects means that *The Krasue is a high-skill Killer* designed for players who enjoy adaptability, mobility, and brutal visual flair. ## A New Survivor: Vee Boonyasak Every great Killer deserves a strong foil, and *Sinister Grace* delivers with **Vee Boonyasak**, a drummer from Thailand’s underground music scene and the pulse of her band *Axekick*. A touring musician used to sleeping in vans and fixing broken gear mid-show, Vee brings a **fast-paced, high-energy** playstyle inspired by the spirit of rock and roll. Her perks lean into themes of **momentum, resilience, and rhythm**, making her a compelling option for loop-heavy players who thrive under pressure. > “Vee is extra special to me because I’m also a drummer,” shares Dave Richard. “Her attitude and energy really bring something new to the Trials.” Beyond her kit, Vee represents **another stride in cultural representation** for Dead by Daylight, offering not just visibility, but depth. Her character is fun, passionate, and a breath of fresh air among the Survivor roster. ## Six New Perks – Including a New Hex *Sinister Grace* introduces **six brand-new perks**—three for the Killer and three for the Survivor. Notably, one of the Killer perks is **a new Hex**, marking the **first Hex perk since the Castlevania Chapter**. While full details are still emerging, early impressions suggest the perks provide: - **Killer Perks**: Increased lethality when alternating forms, pressure through status effects, and one Hex that punishes healing or item usage. - **Survivor Perks**: Focus on movement speed, teamwork efficiency, and rewarding clutch saves under pressure. These perks aim to shake up existing meta builds, offering both casual and competitive players a reason to experiment. ## The Power of Music – A Core Theme In a surprising yet fitting twist, *Sinister Grace* connects its two characters through their shared love of music. Where **Burong** was a classically trained opera singer, **Vee** is a self-taught punk rocker. This contrast creates a thematic bridge between beauty and chaos, structure and improvisation—much like the Trials themselves. With sound playing such a central role in Dead by Daylight—from terror radius music to chase themes—tying character identity to musical style adds another layer to the immersion. Could we one day see a Dead by Daylight in-game concert? With all these musicians entering The Fog, it’s not as far-fetched as it sounds. ## When Can You Play It? - **Now**: *Dead by Daylight: Sinister Grace* is available to play on the **Public Test Build (PTB)** for Steam players. - **September 2025**: Full Chapter release on **PC and consoles**. As always, Chapter purchases include **The Krasue as a Killer**, **Vee Boonyasak as a Survivor**, and access to their **exclusive cosmetics and perks**. ## A Must-Play Chapter for Horror Fans Dead by Daylight: Sinister Grace is shaping up to be one of the game’s most creatively rich and mechanically versatile Chapters in recent memory. With its **cultural roots in Thai mythology**, its **visceral creature design**, and the **adrenaline of live music and performance**, this Chapter stands out not only for its horror but for its soul. Whether you're a Killer main itching to master The Krasue’s dual-form playstyle or a Survivor who vibes with Vee’s energy and grit, *Sinister Grace* brings something fresh and unforgettable to The Fog.
