This in-game currency is something you typically need to purchase with money, so we understand why you might be looking for a free alternative to get your hands on it. Before you get your hopes up, we’ve got everything you need to know about any free Auric Cells that may be hanging around Dead by Daylight right now.

The bad news: there is no way to get Auric Cells for free in the desktop and console versions of Dead by Daylight. This shouldn’t really come as too much of a surprise given it is the game’s premium currency. To get Auric Cells you need to purchase one of six different bundles from the in-game store. These include between 500 and 12,500 Auric Cells, with bonuses being provided for purchasing more expensive bundles.

We don’t suggest going through any other means to buy Auric Cells outside of the official store so that you don’t take any unnecessary security risks. While PC and console players can’t get free Auric Cells, things differ on mobile.

You also get Auric Cells for leveling up in Dead by Daylight Mobile, like you get Iridescent Shards in the original game. Outside of this, you’ll need to keep your eyes peeled for log-in rewards. Sometimes these can provide players with a small amount of free Auric Cells to enjoy.
