The next survivor from Dead by Daylight will be Lara Croft. The famous archaeologist travels to the world of the Entity – and must fight for her life.
Although Dead by Daylight is now entering its ninth year, the horror game is still doing extremely well. The player numbers on Steam remain stable and new content for the next year has already been announced. Additionally, they have secured more and more strong licenses, like recently Dungeons & Dragons – and now also Tomb Raider.
Lara Croft will be the next survivor in Dead by Daylight.
The trailer for the latest killer:
Who is Lara Croft? Lara Croft is the protagonist of the famous “Tomb Raider” series. As an archaeologist and adventurer, she travels to remote locations and discovers forgotten civilizations and temples full of deadly traps.
Since there are often supernatural elements involved, such as when ancient gods are angered, Lara is likely well-acquainted with such creatures, allowing her at least some time to survive in the world of the Entity.
What can Lara Croft do? Like all survivors, Lara Croft comes with three standalone perks that are initially exclusive to her but can later be unlocked for other survivors. Her perks are:
- Finesse: This perk is activated while you are healthy. You perform quick jumps over windows and pallets 20% faster. Afterwards, the perk has a cooldown of 40 / 35 / 30 seconds.
- Hardened: After opening a chest or blessing or cleansing a totem, this perk activates. If you would scream, instead reveal the killer’s aura for 3 / 4 / 5 seconds.
- Specialist: Each time you open or search a chest, gain 1 badge, up to a maximum of 3. When you make a great skill check on a generator, consume all badges. Each consumed badge reduces the maximum required progress of this generator by 2 / 3 / 4 (exact values still unknown).
When can you play as Lara Croft? Lara Croft will be available as DLC starting July 16 and can then be used in the game. However, she will also be playable on the PTB (“Test Server”) of Dead by Daylight in advance, allowing players to take a first look at her perks and appearance in the game.
Since this chapter is only a survivor chapter, it only includes Lara – there is no new killer. However, the latest killer Vecna is still relatively new, and many are just getting used to facing off against this powerful wizard.
