Directors Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, and executive producer Chad Villella decided to ultimately kill him off for plot purposes, as it was the only way that the character Sidney would return to Woodsboro, a way to deepen the film's impact, and the team felt it was a necessary sacrifice for the franchise to ...

Undoubtedly! Dewey is a resilient character and has survived injuries in previous Scream movies. If somebody found him in time and got him medical attention, there's a good chance he could have made it. But let's not forget that this is a horror movie, and the writers might have had other plans for Dewey's character.
He is stabbed by Ghostface during the finale of Scream, but survives. Dewey returns in Scream 2, suffering from a limp and weakened arm caused by nerve damage as a result of his stabbing. He travels to Windsor College to help Sidney after a series of copycat Ghostface murders.
The relationship of Scream deuteragonists Gale Weathers and Dewey Riley is the most explored romantic relationship in the entire franchise, occurring through each of the first five films. It is an on-off liaison that serves as the heart of the franchise.
Arquette played the staple character of Dewey Riley in the series. Dewey was killed off in the fifth film, leaving die-hard fans reeling at his loss. In a plot twist in Scream 5, Ghostface – the iconic series antagonist – slaughters Arquette's Dewey.
The first Ghostface attack against Tara Carpenter (Jenna Ortega), which kicks off Scream 2022, takes place 25 years after the original Woodsboro Ghostface murders. Sidney Prescott is now 42 years old, Gale Weathers is 57, and Dewey Riley is murdered at the age of 50 years old.

Dewey rushes to Windsor College to help Sidney as soon as he learns of the new Ghostface attacks. It's revealed he has a limp due to a severed nerve from his first stab wound, but this doesn't deter him and he teams up with fellow survivors Gale and Randy (Jamie Kennedy).
The first film overtly states that Dewey is obsessed with Sidney. His crush is obvious, and although his feelings seem to change from romantic to protective and platonic, he still finds reasons to be around her as much as possible.
To make the impact effective, the film needed to sacrifice its legacy character, who died in the line of duty facing Ghostface, which circles back to Dewey's role since 1996's Scream. Scream also showed that anyone could die to challenge the implications of the central characters being immortal to Ghostface.
I killed Cassandra for everyone because she had it coming, because the night we were all at prom, we were at Harry's house and he said "he wished she were dead". Dewey also says: "Campbell helped me plan it.
