Without a doubt, the «Chains of Hate» DLC brings a welcome addition to Dead by Daylight with the introduction of the Deathslinger. This is not to say that the killer will be a top-tier choice for wiping out entire teams of survivors with ease, but rather that the design is unique, interesting, and most importantly, accessible for most play

Compared to the last killer release, the Oni, there is a much larger skill-ceiling needed to properly maneuver the rampaging killer and navigate obstacles on a map to use Demon Dash and Strike effectively. The simplicity of the Deathslinger’s design allows players of all ranks to be effective killers. Combined with a beautiful new map in the Dead Dawg Saloon and a new survivor, whose perks will be covered elsewhere, Chains of Hate is a must-have DLC for all play

Arguably the most creative concepts for an online multiplayer experience, Dead by Daylight _ forces players to immerse themselves into their greatest fears. Pitting a group of player-controlled Survivors versus one player-controlled Killer, a match of _Dead by Daylight can only be described as the most intense game of cat in mouse found in a video game ever. Survivors are forced to accomplish a variety of given objectives in order to survive the encounter, from turning on generators to other in-game objectives. Killers simply need to prevent these objectives from being met, by disposing of the Survivors as quickly as possible.

The primary tool in Hillbilly’s arsenal is his notorious chainsaw attack. Hillbilly will begin to rev up his chainsaw for a few seconds and then initiate a rapid charge sprinting through the given arena. This move allows the Hillbilly to cover immense ground during this charge and provides the Killer unprecedented sp

Even at his best a Demogorgon cannot cover every piece of ground made available by his portal. So a well-organized group of survivors can divide and conquer the beast with relative ease by simply spreading out the focus of their attacks. This forces the Demogorgon to pick and choose his focus of attack and can make tackling the group of survivors a challenge for even a master kil

When in Feral Frenzy, Legion loses the ability to kill a Survivor. Rather, he can only down that Survivor and inflict them with the Deep Wound status effect. So even though the ability allows him to chase down enemies, he is unable to «finish» the job. With this knowledge in mind Legion may come across as being one of the worst killers in the game. However, there is a particular aspect to Legion’s ability that makes him a dangerous and imposing threat on the battlefi

The Archives are broken up into three distinct categories; Rift, Tome, and Shrine. They each offer something unique to help players understand the survivors’ backstories, perks, and Behaviour Interactive Update even unlock some cosmetics. There’s a branching algorithm of various challenges that players must complete in order to achieve higher status and unlock character origin-story elements. Some challenges can be rolled-over across different trails and give players multiple chances to complete. However, there are higher Tier challenges that only give players one chance to accomplish. The following is a list of the different layers of the Archive and how it functi

A very important aspect to Legion’s Feral Frenzy is that when the Killer inflicts the Deep Wound status effect he gains two significant buffs. The first being that he maintains his Feral Frenzy buff, and can chain multiple Deep Wound attacks together to maintain his powerful buff. This makes Legion a hypermobile and incredibly quick killer able to essentially dominate a map’s space with little to no difficulty. But arguably the most important aspect to Feral Frenzy is an ability related to the skill, and that is Legion’s Killer Insti

Given his ability to cover large distances, Demogorgon’s ability to catch up to survivors is surprisingly lacking. Although his lunging attack is a powerful move, it is rather finicky at times. It requires a certain degree of accuracy to connect against evasive survivors and has smaller range than a killer would hope for. Plus his recovery animation after whiffing the lung is glacial at times and can easily grant a survivor the time required to esc

Alongside this portal, the killer has access to a powerful lunging strike. This serves as another tool the Demogorgon has to close space while trying to kill survivors. This lunge provides the creature with far-reaching slash attacks and sets up the opportunity for pursuit or another melee str

The Demogorgon is allowed 6 portals to be in the arena at a time. This allows the killer a wide variety of options to dominate the map space and to lock down certain key areas of the map. The portals are invisible to survivors until they have been «activated» which then allows survivors the chance to destroy the portals. To activate a portal a Demogorgon simply has to travel to that portal from another portal, this activates both of the portals used to travel. Once activated the tunnels become visible to the survivors and can be destroyed. However, once activated the Demogorgon has the ability to see a survivor’s aura once they are close to an activated portal. This provides the creature with some powerful recon abilities in a ma
