The devs confirmed in a follow-up to the announcement of the Chapter’s launch date that the replace releasing alongside the Chapter may also repair a bug that gamers have been noticing recently. A makeshift warning was shared within the meantime to carry gamers over until then.
Though the brand new teaser for the following Killer doesn’t reveal rather more about him, we discovered just about all the pieces we would have liked to learn about The Blight from the trailer beneath that first launched him and his Survivor counterpart to the group. The Killer can dash ahead like different Killers can, however in contrast to others who prowl the Fog, The Blight’s objective is to run into an object first. Doing so will allow him to make use of his follow-up skill known as Lethal Rush the place he ends his subsequent sprint with an assault in opposition to Survivors.
“The Blight, a bright and ambitious chemist who sought to enhance humanity through the use of his compounds, only to become a victim of his own ambitions, is the new Killer,” Behaviour Interactive stated concerning the new Chapter. “After his research was stolen, The Blight was lured into the Realm of the Entity by the promise of new, forbidden knowledge. The new survivor is Felix Richter, an eccentric architect with a unique vision. Returning to the mysterious island where his father had disappeared, Felix descended into the darkness beyond and was never seen again.”
The new Descend Beyond Chapter will likely be added to Dead by Daylight on September eighth.
