Behaviour Interactive Reveals Voting Results, Design Updates and Next Steps for Grimoire

Behaviour Interactive published a Phase 2 recap for Dead by Daylight's Grimoire on February 24, 2026, laying out voting results, design updates, and the next steps for the project that will deliver the game's first community-created chapter. The recap confirms Grimoire is moving beyond concept voting into practical development, and it documents the outcomes of the Phase 2 vote that players and creators participated in.

The Phase 2 recap names the voting outcomes that will shape which community concepts proceed toward production, and it notes that players and creators were the primary voters in this stage of Grimoire. Behaviour’s summary makes clear that specific contributions from the community were tallied and that selected concepts will be carried forward into subsequent design work rather than remaining as raw submissions.

Design updates described in the Phase 2 recap address how those advancing concepts will be adapted for Dead by Daylight's existing systems. Behaviour outlined changes to submitted ideas and flagged where community concepts require rework to fit the game's animation, state machines, and balance framework. The recap explains that submissions will undergo iterative design passes under Behaviour's development pipeline to align with technical constraints and playtesting benchmarks.

Next steps in the recap set expectations for future phases of Grimoire, including continued community involvement and developer-led integration. Behaviour detailed that the project will follow through with additional development stages after Phase 2, with the company coordinating creator collaboration and internal engineering to make the selected chapter production-ready. The recap positions Grimoire as a multi-stage process rather than a one-off vote.

For Dead by Daylight players tracking the roadmap, the Phase 2 recap marks a concrete milestone: community votes have produced definable winners and Behaviour has mapped how those winners will be translated into game-ready content. As the first community-created chapter, Grimoire will test how player-driven design meshes with Behaviour's release cadence and technical standards, and the company has signposted the immediate procedural steps that will govern integration and further testing. The February 24, 2026 recap is the first public checkpoint showing community choices moving from vote to development, and it establishes the timeline of activity to monitor in the coming phases.
