I am unsure how multiplayer works for the PC game pass so I was wondering. Does anyone know if you play with xbox players when using PC game pass or are you playing with PC players?

    If you're using the Xbox Game Pass to unlock DBD for PC than no, you will be playing the PC version of DBD and will exclusively be playing with that platform of players.

    What this means is, despite the Xbox Game Pass giving you DBD for PC... you still will be only limited to the players on PC and not be paired with anyone from the Xbox version of DBD.

    Cross-Platform between Console and PC isn't possible yet and this isn't a work around to play with Xbox players on PC through the Xbox Game Pass... So basically, no.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "PC game pass". As I understand it, the Xbox game pass is a package of games which you pay a monthly subscription to access, and Dead By Daylight is one of those. The PC version of the game doesn't really have an equivalent to that - you just buy the game on its own as a one-time payment and play it from there.

    If your question is whether players on Xbox/PC are able to play with each other, the answer is no, crossplay is not currently supported.

    Xbox has a Beta feature where you can download certain game pass games on your pc and play on PC instead of xbox DBD is one of those games.
