Roblox emotes are the character actions like wave, point, cheer, laugh, and dance, and you can use them from the emotes menu or with chat commands like /e wave. In the current Roblox docs, those default emotes are the standard built-in ones, so if you were asking for a special “Dead by Daylight” emote name, that usually isn’t an official Roblox emote name.

How to use them

  • Open the Emotes menu from the top-left menu in Roblox.
  • Or press / and type a command such as /e cheer or /e point.
  • The default emotes listed in Roblox support are /e wave, /e point, /e cheer, /e laugh, /e dance, /e dance2, and /e dance3.

About the Dead by Daylight part

Dead by Daylight itself uses gestures/emotes in-game, but that is separate from Roblox’s emote system. If you saw “Dead by Daylight” connected to Roblox, it may be from a game, a mod, or a fan video rather than an official Roblox name.

Best match

If you want the Roblox command name for a simple emote, the safest answer is:

  • wave
  • point
  • cheer
  • laugh
  • dance

Those are the official Roblox default emote names.

TL;DR: Roblox’s built-in emote names are things like /e wave and /e dance; there isn’t an official Roblox emote called “Dead by Daylight”.
