If you thought the battlefields of Heathmoor were already stressful enough with light-spamming Orochis and unblockable heavy attacks, think again. Ubisoft has dropped a brand-new trailer confirming the return of one of the most unexpected, blood-pumping crossovers in the game’s history.

Survivors of the Fog—the iconic Dead by Daylight collaboration—is officially back for a limited-time throwback run, and the trailer promises pure, unadulterated chaos.

Check out the breakdown of what’s waiting for you in the mist from June 11th to July 2nd, 2026.

Watch the Event Trailer

The trailer sets a chilling mood: the familiar, eerie ambience of Dead by Daylight bleeds directly into For Honor’s Cinder Mill map. But instead of generators to repair while helpless, our battle-hardened Knights, Vikings, Samurai, and Outlaws are doing what they do best—fighting back. Well, trying to, anyway.

The Trapper Hunts the Heroes

For those who missed the event’s original debut, this isn’t your standard standard standard Dominion match.

• The Mode: A frantic 4v4 PvP mode without the usual standard minions.
• The Twist: Replacing the minion lane is The Trapper, Dead by Daylight’s signature poster-boy killer, controlled by a ruthless AI.
• The Objective: Two teams compete for capture points while avoiding the Trapper’s bear traps and massive cleaver. He roams the map aggressively, attacking anyone in sight regardless of faction.

Pro-Tip: If your team manages to take down the Trapper, you will earn a massive chunk of hard points to help push the enemy team into breaking—and the hero who lands the final blow gets a full health restore. But beware: he hits like a literal truck.

Fresh Loot and Throwback Rewards

It wouldn’t be a For Honor event without some incredible cosmetic drops. By playing during the event window, you can progress through a Free Event Pass to unlock:

• Mask of Carnage (Elite Outfit)
• Mask of the Oni (Mood FX)
• Demonic Mask (Ornament)

Even better, Ubisoft has updated the system so that daily orders in other game modes will also reward event pass points. So even if you need a break from the spooky atmosphere, you can still grind out that sweet, horror-themed loot.

Perfectly Timed for Title Update 1

The timing of this throwback event couldn’t be better. It perfectly complements the launch of the newest Sohei Hero Skin: The Oni’s Wrath. Stalking through the dark fog as a corrupted, demonic Samurai entity? Yes, please.

Furthermore, this update brings a massive anti-gank rework with damage scaling adjustments, alongside balance reworks for Ocelotl, Jormungandr, Pirate, and Tiandi.

Final Verdict: Face Your Fears

Survivors of the Fog successfully blends the tension of a survival-horror game with the complex, mechanical combat of For Honor. Will you dominate the leaderboard, or will you end up caught in a bear trap while a Lawbringer top-heavies you into oblivion?

Drop into the fog now—before the entity claims the Cinder Mill for good on July 2nd.
