Will Hellraiser leave Dead by Daylight?
I saw someone say that the Hellraiser license couldn't last long here at DbD and that the dlc will probably don't on sale in December as Clive Barker will regain all rights to the entire franchise in that month and now that I realize it, the licensee of the license is another who appears in the Hellraiser teaser trailer. Would Hellraiser leave dbd?

As a general rule, assume any and all licensed content can leave any and all games. However, that Hellraiser is definitely going to leave by December is 100% speculation (and probably by people who don't understand copyright law, licenses, etc.).

Judging by Stranger Things, which it seems you are reacting to, I would guess that typically there's a contract for a certain amount of time. I'd assume a year or two. It would be weird, I would think, to have a contract for just a few months... But what do I know :D

Okay let me put this very mild just because Netflix bailed does not mean every chapter from here on out will if there's a legal battle anything is possible for all we know they worked out a deal with both sides best we stop jumping to conclusions over every DLC that comes into the game yes at any point they can leave but not every case is gonna be like Stranger Things. Not every situation will be the end of the world.

The new movie and TV series were both in the works before the license went to court and are still in production, tv series has even made Clive Barker a producer on it. He seems to be working with those that are putting out new Hellraiser stuff even though he wasn't originally involved in the license agreements. DBD would only lose the Hellraiser license if when it comes to renew they can't come to an agreement on the new license. Nightmare on Elm Street they managed to work out the renewal after Wes Cravens estate got the license back under them. I wouldn't currently worry about it.
