Behaviour Interactive Is Working on an “Unannounced AAA Sci-Fi FPS With a High Realism Bar”
Behaviour Interactive, the Montreal-based studio behind Dead by Daylight, is developing an unannounced AAA sci-fi first-person shooter built in Unreal Engine. The project’s existence was revealed through a job listing for a Senior Technical Animator, which indicates the game aims for a “high realism bar”—potentially referring to graphics fidelity, physics systems, or gameplay mechanics.
The scale of this project significantly exceeds Behaviour Interactive’s most recent release, Meet Your Maker (2023). This marks a notable expansion for the studio, which has built its reputation primarily on asymmetrical horror multiplayer experiences. The shift toward an ambitious AAA sci-fi shooter demonstrates the studio’s diversification beyond the horror genre that has defined much of its output.
Details remain limited, with no information disclosed about specific gameplay systems, setting, or release timeline. However, the recruitment of senior technical talent suggests the game is in active development and likely in early-to-mid production stages. This project represents Behaviour Interactive’s continued ambitions to establish presence in the competitive AAA shooter market while maintaining support for its flagship Dead by Daylight franchise.
