Over 1.8 million copies of Dead by Daylight sold

And that's only on PC with the console launch looming.

We've previously reported that Dead by Daylight, the horror game where one player is the mad killer that hunts the rest of the players, will be released on consoles this month.

But last year it was released on PC and instantly became a huge success. Now the developer Behaviour Interactive has shared the sales numbers for the PC version, and it turns out it has shifted 1.8 million copies already.

We expect this to very quickly get bumped to over two million sold mark shortly after June 20 when the game is released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Check out the console launch trailer below.
