Freddy Krueger is soon to slash his way through Dead by Daylight. The killer from A Nightmare on Elm Street joins the slasher game.
In Dead by Daylight, things can get quite brutal. In this horror game, four survivors face off against a merciless killer who sacrifices their opponents to the mysterious Entity.
However, alongside the killer creations by the developers of Dead by Daylight, such as the Trapper or the Nurse, there are also a few licensed characters. Last year, for Halloween, Michael Myers from the Halloween film series was introduced, and just last month Leatherface from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was added.
Freddy Krueger hopefully returns to kill teenagers this Halloween
This trend seems to continue, as it appears that the developers at Behaviour Interactive have managed to obtain the license forA Nightmare on Elm Street. At least this little teaser suggests that Freddy Krueger will soon be hunting down survivors. Take a look for yourself:
In the films, Freddy Krueger kills in various ways, but there is always one condition: The teenage victims must fall asleep. Because Freddy hunts in dreams, and whoever dies there also meets their end in the real world.
This fits perfectly with the story of Dead by Daylight, as the game worlds of the strange Entity are basically nothing more than dreamlike projections of the real world.
Fans firmly believe that Freddy Krueger will join the killers at the end of the month, exactly on Halloween, and shake things up in Dead by Daylight. Speculation about his abilities is currently rampant. Since he doesn’t have a “preferred” method of killing, there’s a lot of room for the developers to create something exciting.
One, two – Freddy’s coming for you. Three, four – lock your door …
Another horror game is also gaining momentum – Friday the 13th just received a major update!
