Dead by Daylight is continuing with their collaborations, this time bringing The Walking Dead universe to the asymmetrical game. Two new survivors that are familiar with The Walking Dead fans are on the way: Rick Grimes and Michonne. The two will come with a brand-new set of perks to help players survive.
Rick Grimes’ Perks:
Apocalyptic Ingenuity draws on Rick’s experience scrounging for supplies in a world torn asunder. Rummage through Chests to gain a unique Ability which allows you to construct a Fragile Pallet from the remnants of a Broken Pallet.
Come and Get Me! draws on Rick’s selfless courage, putting himself directly in harm’s way for the benefit of others. After Unhooking a Survivor, gain a unique Ability that can be triggered while crouched and idle.
Doing so will make any injured or dying teammates go completely silent, staunching all Pools of Blood. At the same time, you’ll let out a diversionary scream and briefly reveal your Aura to the Killer, giving them a new target to chase – not that they’ll ever catch you, right?
Teamwork: Toughen Up is most effectively used alongside a teammate, so keep that in mind while equipping this one in your loadout. When another nearby Survivor stuns or blinds the Killer while you’re injured, your Grunts of Pain, Scratch Marks, and Pools of Blood will be reduced.
Michonne’s Perks:
Conviction is aptly named, revolving around Michonne’s willingness to push herself to the brink and back. Heal a Survivor to gain a life-saving Ability, allowing you to instantly recover from the Downed State, provided you’ve built up a decent chunk of recovery time.
The catch is, you’ll become Broken and go back into the Dying State after a brief duration – but this crucial window is invaluable to get healed up and turn the tables back in your favor.
Last Stand comes into effect after spending time in the Killer’s Terror Radius; after all, Michonne was first introduced while travelling alongside a pair of pet Walkers. Once enough time has been allotted, your next fast vault will stun the Killer, granting you a crucial moment to escape. Note that after a successful use, this Perk will be disabled for the remainer of the Trial.
Teamwork: Throw Down shares a name with one of Rick’s Perks, synergizing quite effectively alongside it. When you Pallet stun or blind the Killer, injured Survivors in your vicinity gain Endurance, briefly glimpsing the Killer’s Aura at the time same.
Dead by Daylight: The Walking Dead is now available in the Player Test Build, with the full Chapter releasing on July 29th.
