The collection features skins based on Ito's most famous works, including "Tomie," "Hanging Balloons," and "Rumors." Killers receiving new skins include The Dredge, The Trickster, The Twins, The Spirit, and The Artist.

The Spirit will sport a Tomie skin, while The Artist will don the Miss Fuchi (from "Rumors") skin. Survivors Yui Kimura, Yun-Jin Lee, and Kate Denson also receive new Ito-inspired outfits.

In a video shared on the official Dead by Daylight X (Twitter) account, Ito reacted to the in-game skins, commenting on how terrifying they had become. He even tried his hand at playing the game as The Artist, wielding the Miss Fuchi skin.
