Dead by Daylight is receiving criticism online following the news its Pinhead character model, introduced in its latest Hellraiser content, has been made available for NFTs.
The multiplayer title’s developer Behaviour Interactive shared on Twitter that it worked with a company called Boss Protocol “over several months to adapt in-game models for use as NFTs”.
According to an Behaviour’s FAQ page, Boss Protocol worked with Boss Team Games “who controls certain interactive rights to Hellraiser from Park Avenue Entertainment”.
