There are a few straightforward options available to you if you’re sick of using the same name throughout your Dead by Daylight career.
This tutorial will help you pick the best approach to make the name change you wish, regardless of whether you want to change to something short, unique, or entirely random.
Even if your original name has already been taken, Dead by Daylight allows you to modify it! The procedure is as follows:
How To Change Your Name On Dead By Daylight?
Dead By Daylight is a multiplayer online game where players compete against each other as survivors or killers.
To change your name in the game, there are two main methods you can use. The first is changing your name during account creation, and the second is changing it later on.
Changing your name during account creation requires an extra step because you have to submit a support ticket with proof of ownership of the new username.
Changing your username later on only requires that you edit the information in-game under My Account, which will then automatically update for everyone else who plays with that person.
It’s possible that some gamers may end up deciding they want to alter their DBD username for a variety of reasons.
There is no need for concern on your part if you are wanting to change your username in order to re-join a clan or because you have changed your name in real life and want a new username.
Both of these reasons qualify you to request a new nickname. The following is a list of the five different methods that you may change your username on DBD:
- Launch the game and click on Account located at the top of the screen.
- Next, select Change Username.
- Type in your old username with the / symbol (without quotations) before it
- then type in the desired username without quotation marks.
- Press enter.
You will need to input a verification code when requested to do so. Send a request to them through email, providing your old username and your new username, as well as an attached screenshot of the verification text message they provided to the phone number linked with your account when you originally registered for DBD.
This will allow you to get the code. When they get this information from you, they will send you an email with a one-of-a-kind verification number that is eight digits long.
This code will enable you to complete the name change for your account!
Using Steam
Going into the game, finding your character’s profile, and making the change there is all that is required to change your name in Dead by Daylight.
The game is quite user-friendly. Changing your name on Steam works a little bit differently than on other platforms.
- You will need to enter the Steam shop
- pick Steam from the main menu bar
- then click on Profile when you have done so.
- You will be able to make changes to your profile information, including your username, after you get to that section.
- Keep in mind that information will only be updated on platforms that are owned and operated by Valve.
