Metalcore outfit ICE NINE KILLS have entered the fog with their brand-new single "Play Dead", a collaboration with the world's leading multiplayer horror game "Dead By Daylight".

The track arrives alongside an in-game "Ice Nine Kills Collection", allowing players to represent the band inside the game's ever-expanding horror universe with unique DLC.

Fans can watch the "Play Dead" accompanying music video below.

The release follows ICE NINE KILLS' first-ever No.

The forthcoming part two of the music video continues ICE NINE KILLS' celebrated lore, which has featured genre stars including Matthew Lillard ("Scream"), David Arquette ("Scream"), and Catherine Corcoran ("Terrifier") among many others.

"Play Dead" welcomes skateboard legend Tony Hawk, Devon Sawa ("Idle Hands"), Krisy Fox ("Terrifier 3"), and the "Dead By Daylight" team to the INKverse.

ICE NINE KILLS mastermind Spencer Charnas shares: "We wanted the song to feel like a real extension of that universe, not just inspired by it, but genuinely part of it." The video also features iconic genre star Devon Sawa and new modern horror scream queen Krisy Fox.

Having Tony Hawk appear with them felt essential because he isn't just the Michael Jordan of skateboarding.

He's synonymous with the marriage of music, gaming, and subculture.

"Play Dead" follows a succession of high-profile horror collaborations that have cemented ICE NINE KILLS as one of the genre's most natural musical counterparts.

The band continue to build one of the most immersive worlds in modern heavy music, where songs become scenes, videos become lore, and every new release sharpens the blade for whatever comes next.
