‘Dead by Daylight’ Reveals New Chapter DLC and Teases New Leatherface Outfit Reveal This Friday

With Behaviour Interactive’s Dead by Daylight launching on next-gen consoles this week, how about an extra treat? Not only do we have the announced next chapter in “A Binding of Kin”, but Leatherface is getting a facelift in the form of a new outfit.

First off, the new chapter adds a new Killer and Survivor to the game. Or this time, Killers, as Charlotte and Victor, known as The Twins, allow you to switch control between the two. Victor (the parasitic twin), can function similar to a Left 4 Dead Jockey. The Twins also come with a new set of perks, which you can find below:

Hoarder:

• You protect what little you have and are perceptive to those rummaging through your stockpiles.
• Receive a loud noise notification when Survivors interact with a chest or when they pick up an item within 24 meters of your location.
• The trial begins with up to 2 additional chests in the environment. The rarity of items found in all chests is decreased.

Oppression:

• Life has been difficult for you, so you’ll make it difficult for others.
• When you damage a generator, up to 3 other random generators also begin regressing.
• If the affected generators are being repaired, any Survivors repairing them receive a difficult Skill Check.
• Oppression has a cooldown of 120 seconds.

Coup De Grace:

• As the end nears, you go in for the kill.
• Each time a generator is completed, Coup de Grace grows in power. Gain a token.
• Consume one token to increase the distance of your next lunge attack by 60%.

Meanwhile, the new Survivor, a woman named Élodie Beaumont, gets her own perks:

Appraisal:

• You have a careful eye that notices what many overlook.
• Start the trial with 3 tokens. When a chest has already been opened, consume a token to search it for an item.
• You unlock chests 80% faster.

Deception:

• Your adventurous lifestyle requires moments of crafty misdirection.
• Interacting with a locker while sprinting will trigger a loud noise notification at your location and cause you to leave no scratch marks for 3 seconds.
• You no longer enter lockers while sprinting and while this perk is active.

Power Struggle:

• You’ve never given up and you’re not about to start now.
• While being carried by The Killer, reaching 25% progress activates Power Struggle. While Power Struggle is active, you can drop a nearby pallet to Stun The Killer.
• Power Struggle is deactivated when it triggers successfully.

No word yet on when the DLC will be available, but you can check it out in action in the reveal trailer below.

As for Leatherface’s new costume, it remains to be seen (no pun intended) as to what it might be. Could we be seeing the Nispel-directed remake version of Leatherface? It’d definitely bring a whole new sense of terror to playing as Leatherface. We’ll have to wait until Friday to find out.

Dead by Daylight is available now on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch, as well as PlayStation 5 (when it releases tomorrow) and the Xbox Series X/S. Thanks to RelyonHorror for the gameplay video.

What’s on the menu tonight? Keep an eye out on November 13th… #DBD #DeadbyDaylight #Leatherface pic.twitter.com/SRgmwHys3t
