Teased on the day before the day of Thanksgiving, Behaviour Digital revealed incoming new content including a brand new map, killer, survivor, and more for Dead by Daylight. Based on the two images revealed that day, there was plenty of information to go off of including the fact that the new area is a ski slope or snow resort and now they’ve made the official reveal in the forthcoming tenth chapter called “Darkness Among Us.”

Taking place in a new map called The Ormond Slopes Resort located in Ormond, Alberta, the area now sits abandoned. Afterward, it transformed into a “hideout for gangs of teenagers looking for trouble.” This is where the new killer comes in. Instead of being a singular body perpetrating pure carnage, groups of teenagers disguise themselves as a single persona – The Legion. Players can choose to “embody one of the agile teenagers” in order to “catch survivors off-guard” with their power Feral Frenzy. There’s also a new survivor by the name of Jeff Johansen, and the addition of bug fixes, balance updates, and more.

New Killer: The Legion

When teenagers get involved with an impulsive mastermind, they discover an addictive kind of freedom. Together, they spiral out of control and become the wrong kind of crowd. Players will choose to embody one of the agile teenagers able to catch Survivors off-guard with their power, Feral Frenzy.

• The Legion’s Power Is:
  • Feral Frenzy. When active, The Legion can move at a faster rate, vault pallets, and missed attacks have a shorter cooldown. Successful attacks made during the Frenzy apply a new status effect – DEEP WOUND – and reset the power’s duration, allowing The Legion to chain their attacks to multiple Survivors.
• Perks
  • Discordance: Any time 2 or more survivors are working on the same Generator; the Generator’s aura is highlighted for a short duration.
  • Mad Grit: While carrying a Survivor, you suffer no cooldown for missed attacks, and hitting another Survivor will pause the carried Survivor’s wiggle timer for a moment.
  • Iron Maiden: You open lockers faster. Additionally, when a Survivor exits a locker, their location is revealed, and they suffer from the Exposed status effect for a while.

New Survivor: Jeff Johansen

Jeff is an artist with a heart of gold. One morning, he got a phone call from Ormond, Alberta. Home. Jeff revisited the home he left behind, but he should never have looked back.

• PERKS:
  • Breakdown: Any time you are removed from a hook (escaped or saved), the hook breaks and the Killer’s aura is shown to you.
  • Aftercare: A 2-way link is created between yourself and other Survivors when you cooperate. When you heal or rescue someone, or when someone heals or rescues you, a link is created, allowing you to see each other’s auras across the entire map.
  • Distortion: You start the Trial with 3 tokens. When your aura would be shown to the killer, the perk activates, and a token is consumed. For a short period, your aura will not be shown to the Killer and you leave no scratch marks.
