Hellraiser Is Coming To Dead By Daylight

Hellraiser Is Coming To Dead By Daylight.

With fans yelling to the skies for the Stranger Things license to be renewed for Dead By Daylight as it is set to expire at the end of the year. Behaviour has just announced another horror icon will be joining the line-up. Hellraiser is set to be the next killer to enter the popular survival horror game.

We’ve already got our first look at what the latest DLC will have to offer now that a new killer has hit the game’s Public Test Build.

The first teaser for the upcoming chapter debuted a few days ago, but the latest social media tease goes a little more in detail. The Public Test Build is available and brings more than just the usual bug fixes. Included in update 5.2.0 is a new killer, the Cenobite. Cenobites are extra-dimensional beings known from the Hellraiser series, brainwashed into torturing humans for all time. This makes it the perfect addition to Dead by Daylight. 

For what else is new, check out the latest PTB patch notes below, courtesy of Behaviour: 

Update 5.2.0: 

Features

• Added a new Killer – The Cenobite
• Match Results – When players leave a Trial with a Limited Item (Example: The Nemesis’s Vaccine) they will now be notified that they do not get to keep it. It has been consumed by The Entity.
• Large Text Settings – The players can enable this option to enlarge all texts in the HUD, increasing readability.

The Nemesis Update:

• Movement speed while charging Tentacle Strike Tier 3 increased to 4.0m/s (was 3.8m/s)
• Shattered S.T.A.R.S. Badge effect duration increased to 60 seconds (was 30 seconds)
• Iridescent Umbrella Badge effect duration increased to 30 seconds (was 15 seconds, but was erroneously displayed as 12 seconds)
• Ritual of The Nemesis reduced to reaching maximum Mutation Rate one time (was 4

Dev note: The Nemesis came out in a good state, but has been underperforming slightly in higher skill brackets. These players tend to hit Mutation Rate 3 more often, so a buff here should give him a slight boost at that level of play. Additionally, we have buffed two addons that were underperforming to make them more viable, and made the associated ritual less of a pain to complete.

• Various bug fixes and improvements to address performance issues on the Family Residence, Sanctum of Wrath and Midwich Elementary School.
• Blood Lodge, Dead Dawg Saloon and The Game maps are re-enabled
• Updated a variety of survivors’ hair and facial hair cosmetics.
