Dead by Daylight Family Sharing DLC not working & showing up
Dead by Daylight has many DLCs you can try. Dead by Daylight also supports family sharing of DLCs via Steam. It means you can share the DLCs you buy with others. You can authorize your friend’s or family member’s computer to allow access to your Steam game library. With family sharing, you only need one copy of whatever you buy on Steam for your family or friends group to play together. However, you can only authorize up to ten computers to use one account. So, share judiciously!
Dead by Daylight’s DLCs are released as chapters and expansion packs. Chapters add new characters and sometimes, new maps as well. There are three chapters available to buy for Dead by Daylight as of now. There are presently two expansion packs for Dead by Daylight: one adds eleven new survivor characters and the other adds 11 new killer characters. You can share the base game and the above using the family sharing feature. However, the family sharing option isn’t working for many. But, we do have an unofficial fix for the same.
Family Sharing feature not working: Fixes
If you cannot access the game or DLCs after the new update, we have a fix for you. This fix was posted by a Steam user, BubbaLovesYou. Follow these steps to fix the issue.
- Choose the character you’re missing. Then, go to the store page.
