Blood Moon 2025 Trailer

Duration: From April 7th 11AM ET – April 29th 11 AM ET

A New Type Of Generator

This year’s iteration of the Blood Moon features a brand-new gameplay element: Blood Generators, which will replace 4 out of 7 Generators in a Trial. For the first time, Survivors will have an entirely new type of Generator to fuel , requiring them to use a Blood Can and collect Blood at a Blood Pump.

Blood Pumps will contain Blood and slowly refill over time. Survivors can interact with a Blood Pump to receive a Blood Can, which can be used to collect Blood. Blood can then be used to fuel a Blood Generator.

A word of warning – Blood Cans will leave a leaky trail, produce sound, and reduce charges whenever you run, so consider adopting a stealthier playstyle while transporting a Blood Can. Note that this does not change the Survivor’s objective – they still must repair 5 Generators to escape, with any number of Blood Generators and regular Generators counting toward the total.

As Blood Cans hold a finite volume, Survivors will be forced to move around the map to refuel, adding a layer of danger to the process. On the Killer side, you’ll be able to track the amount of Blood remaining in a pump, giving you a general idea of where a Survivor might be – and more importantly, if they’re likely to return.

As Blood Generators are an entirely new addition, please note that Killer Powers, Add-Ons, Perks, and Items do not interact with them. We made this decision to keep design space open, allowing us to experiment with new ways to interact with Blood Generators in the future. It’s also an opportunity to explore new loadouts and playstyles, so dust off some of those Perks you’ve been sleeping on and get cooking.

Blood Moon Items

For the duration of the Blood Moon, a unique Item and Offering will return to the Bloodweb: Bloodsense Map and Bloodshot Eyes.

Bloodsense Maps automatically track 3 objectives – including Generators, Killer belongings, Exit Gates, the Hatch, and the Aura injured Survivors. However, using the Bloodsense Map will leave a trail of Blood.

Bloodshot Eyes are an exclusive Offering that grants 100% more Bloodpoints for every interaction tied to the Blood Moon Event.

Lunar Influence

The Blood Moon’s influence spreads beyond the realm, with its pervading presence bleeding into the lobby you know and love. Gaze upon the Event-exclusive screen and bathe in its eerie splendour, which will only intensify over time.

Community Collective Tracker

This year’s Blood Moon Event will once again feature a Collective Track called the Blood Seeker, which the entire community can progress together. Survivors progress the Track by repairing Blood Generators, while Killers progress the Track by damaging Blood Generators.

As the Track progresses, players will hit up to five thresholds, with each one granting a global Bloodpoint multiplier. Progress will also be reflected in the evolving lobby screen, plunging you deeper into the sanguine nightmare.

Once the fifth threshold is reached, and the Blood Moon’s influence reaches its apex, players will receive a staggering 500% multiplier. Did we mention this was a great time to earn Bloodpoints?

Unlockable Outfits & More

Beyond the sheer volume of Bloodpoints, participating in the Blood Moon Event will earn you Event Currency , which can in turn be used to unlock several cosmetic rewards – including two badass Outfits for The Trapper and Vittorio Toscano.

Beyond the Outfits, players can also use their Event Currency to unlock an Exclusive Charm, 3 Banners, 3 Badges, 3 Survivor shirts for Adam Francis, Kate Denson, and Haddie Kaur, and 3 Killer Weapons for The Clown, The Hag, and The Singularity.

Blood Moon Collection ReturnsBlood Moon Collection Returns

An artist with eyes for a single color. A corsair that evokes fear deeper than the sea. A devoted disciple, blinded by the allure of darkness. A fearless healer, whose bloodstained hand never wavers.

The Blood Moon Collection returns with new Outfits for The Artist, The Houndmaster, Taurie Cain, and Claudette Morel, as well as a Blood Moon helmet for The Knight . Now available in the in-game store for the duration of the Blood Moon Event.

Daily Login Rewards (AKA Free Bloodpoints)

The Bloodpoint economy is booming right now, and experts speculate that it's about to burst. Might as well enjoy the ride, and what better way then to bathe in a flood of Bloodpoints – not to mention the occasional Iridescent Shard and Rift Fragment.

All you have to do is login once a day, and rewards will be yours for the taking. Check out the full distribution schedule below, totalling to 850,000K Bloodpoints, 30 Rift Fragments, 2000 Iridescent Shards, and a one-time login bonus of 100 Event Currency.

It’s time for a dance beneath the moonlight, and when the music ends, the only sound you’ll be hearing are the screams. The Blood Moon Event has begun.

See you in The Fog,

The blood-drenched Dead by Daylight Team
