Dead by Daylight is collaborating with yet another iconic horror franchise, this time dipping its toes into the necrotic world of The Walking Dead. Featuring a couple of new Survivors and their respective perks, this upcoming Chapter brings a lot to the table.
Here are all the Survivors and Perks coming with Dead by Daylight's The Walking Dead Chapter.
Dead by Daylight - The Walking Dead Chapter Survivors and Perks
The Walking Dead Chapter brings two Survivors into Dead by Daylight, both of whom are recognizable and iconic figures of AMC's stellar TV series. These are Rick Grimes and his wife Michonne, the fantastic pair battle-hardened by the post-apocalypse where danger looms around every corner.
Rick Grimes will also gain a skin, turning him into Daryl Dickson, another of The Walking Dead's most iconic characters played by Norman Reedus.
Their survival skills are brought over into Dead by Daylight, with Behaviour Interactive constructing the following Perks to reflect them:
-
Rick Grimes
- Apocalyptic Ingenuity - Rick can open chests to gain a unique Ability to create Fragile Pallets out of Broken Pallets.
- Come and Get Me - Rick gains a unique Ability whenever he Unhooks a Survivor. The Ability is triggered once he is idle and crouched, making all injured and dying Survivors silent and stopping them from creating blood pools. Rick then screams and reveals his Aura to the Killer to cause them to chase him instead of the other Survivors.
- Teamwork: Toughen Up - Whenever another Survivor near Rick stuns or blinds the Killer while he is injured, Rick will start leaving reduced scratch marks, blood pools, and grunt less frequently.
-
Michonne
- Conviction - Michonne gains a lifesaving Ability after healing an injured Survivor, which enables her to recover from being downed if she has enough recovery time to do so. Once she's back up, Michonne will get downed again after a brief period, but can use this time to heal up or perform some crucial action.
- Last Stand - If Michonne spends enough time within a Killer's Terror Radius, she gains the Ability to stun them with a fast vault. After using this ability once, it'll be disabled until the end of the match.
- Teamwork: Throw Down - Injured Survivors near Michonne are buffed with Endurance whenever she blinds or stuns the killer with a Pallet. These Survivors also gain sight of the Killer's Aura for a brief moment.
As you can see from these Perks, Rick and Michonne are meant to be played together, their perks synergizing well with each other. Of course, if you Prestige them, you'll gain these perks on other Survivors, meaning that you get to synergize with other Survivors as well.
The Walking Dead Chapter does not add a new Killer, but this pair of Survivors is more than enough trouble for the existing roster of homicidal maniacs in the game.
The Chapter comes out on July 29.
