Following the terrifying release of Chapter 16 in Dead by Daylight, the Fourth Anniversary in-game event is now live from June 23 to July 7! The event features limited-time in-game mechanics, special-event hooks and generators, and cosmetics that can be earned by logging in, or completing specific challenges in a match.

The Anniversary Crown is the newest in-game mechanic added during the event. This Crown Pillar will spawn randomly on each map, and any player that interacts with it, be they Survivor or Killer, will gain a golden glow for the duration of the match. Players who can escape as a Survivor or finish the Trial as a Killer while the effect is active will earn the Golden Crown as a unlocked cosmetic item that can be used on any original character from the game, meaning it should exclude all licensed characters.

However, players should take note of the wording here, because while it seems that one only needs to complete this challenge on a single survivor to unlock the cosmetic for everyone, that is not the case. The cosmetic item will only be unlocked for the character that completes the challenge, and the same goes for killers. As a Killer, this means that one must play at least thirteen games, assuming they own all the original characters.

Completing this will all Survivors is likely going to be a far more time-consuming process. There are fourteen original characters, and one needs to escape with the effect active to unlock the cosmetic. Players should plan their time as best they can because everyone knows that there are simply days where escape can feel like an impossible task! There are fourteen days, so aiming to complete one Survivor per day should be perfectly manageable, but self-torture to attempt all in the last days of the event.
