Dead by Daylight has partnered with the Resident Evil franchise to create two chapters that have introduced numerous iconic characters to the game, including Resident Evil's most iconic heroes and villains alike. Past those two full chapters that introduced the likes of The Nemesis, Albert Wesker, Leon S. Kennedy, Ada Wong, and more, Capcom has also brought quite a few Resident Evil skins to the game for existing characters.
In this guide, we'll list all of the playable characters from Resident Evil that you can play in Dead by Daylight, as well as all of the skins available for those characters.
