It has been revealed that the next chapter ofDead by Daylightwill feature a Killer and two Survivors from the hit horror seriesResident Evil. In the guide below, we cover everything there is to know about Nemesis, this chapters intimidating new Killer.
Special Abilities
The one thing about theResident EvilDLC that sets it apart from the others is that the Tyrant (the Killer) will bring multiple new game mechanics as its special abilities. His primarySpecial Poweris the ability to infect Survivors with the T-Virus, the disease destroying the world in theResident Evilseries. It causes the Survivors to cough, making them much easier to find. These are the two most significant features this Killer is bringing to the game.
Special Attack: Tentacle Strike
Tyrant will have the ability to grab and damage the Survivors with its tentacles. Upon doing so, it causes a similar effect as The Plague’s ability to make the Survivors sick. This ability infects the Survivors with the T-Virus. As the game progresses and you successfully complete specific actions, your Mutation Rate will increase, which will improve your Tentacle Strike powers.
Special Enemy: Zombies
The inclusion of AI in this update is huge forDead by Daylightas AI Enemies haven’t been added before. The Zombies will either contaminate the Survivors with the T-Virus or damage their health if they are already contaminated. Zombies can be destroyed by The Tyrant to boost his Mutation Rate, and they will eventually respawn.
