Bite By Night is the official asymmetrical horror survival game on Roblox, heavily inspired by Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNAF), Dead by Daylight (DBD), and Forsaken. Directed by OzelBlox and BlueRev under the Bite By Night Dev Team, it pits a team of Survivors against a single powerful Killer (iconic FNAF animatronics) in tense, timer-based rounds.
Core Premise When night falls, the hunt begins. Survivors must complete objectives and survive until 6 AM to escape. The Killer’s goal is to eliminate every survivor before the timer runs out. Survival isn’t guaranteed—hide, run, fight back, or become prey.

Gameplay Overview
Bite By Night is a classic 4v1 asymmetrical experience with high-stakes horror mechanics:
- Survivors (4 players): Choose a class, work together to repair generators (or equivalent objectives), stick together or split strategically, use abilities to evade or counter the Killer, and escape by 6 AM.
- Killer (1 player): Select an animatronic with unique abilities, set traps, chase, down, and eliminate survivors. Use terror radius audio cues, special moves, and map knowledge to dominate.
- Round Timer: Ends at 6 AM (survivors win if any escape) or when all survivors are dead (Killer wins).
- Objectives for Survivors: Repair generators, avoid the Killer’s abilities, heal teammates, stun/counter the Killer, and reach exit gates.
- Killer Tools: Melee attacks, special abilities (traps, throws, screams, charges), bleed/slowness effects, and environmental pressure.
- Progression: Earn EXP and Scrap every match (max ~500 Scrap / 3,000 EXP as Survivor per round). Use Scrap to unlock skins, emotes, and cosmetics in the Store. VIP perks available via group join.
- Play-to-Win Focus: Strong mechanics and skill matter more than pay-to-win (though cosmetics and minor perks exist).
The game emphasizes immersive graphics (non-blocky animatronics), atmospheric sound design (custom OST, terror radius music), and intense chases.
Survivor Classes (4 Playable Types)
Survivors pick one class per match. Each has unique abilities tailored for team support, healing, stunning, or survival. You earn limited Scrap/EXP per round as a survivor.
- Customer (Survivalist)
- Focus: Self-buffing and evasion.
- Abilities: Speed boost (with slowness debuff after), self-heal/health restoration.
- Playstyle: Great for solo runners or clutch escapes.
- Fighter (Stunner)
- Focus: Aggressive offense and Killer disruption.
- Abilities: Wields a fire axe at all times. Parry (charge) + Stun the Killer.
- Playstyle: Counter-attacker who can interrupt chases and save teammates. Featured class highlight: “That’s right, step back from me. I’ll snap at you if you snap at me.”
- Medic (Healer)
- Focus: Team sustain and clutch saves.
- Abilities: Heal self and teammates; use medkit (“THE METHOD”) for extra health/overheal.
- Playstyle: Essential support for longer games.
- Security Guard (Support)
- Focus: Information and crowd control.
- Abilities: Taser to slow the Killer; tablet to access security cameras across the map.
- Playstyle: Intel gatherer who spots the Killer early and slows pursuits.
Tip: Coordinate classes—e.g., Security Guard calls out Killer location while Fighter stuns and Medic keeps everyone alive.
