Thought you knew all about the Killers and Survivors in Dead by Daylight? Think again as it’s time to Descend Beyond.
Descend Beyond is the latest chapter to come to Dead by Daylight, pushing out a new Survivor and Killer to Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch and PC players, along with some spanking new and exclusive in-game cosmetic items and the first of some much promised graphical updates.
Available now in Dead by Daylight on Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch and PC, Descend Beyond takes the iconic asymmetrical 4v1 experience to new levels, with a host of additional opportunities for players to enjoy.
The New Killer is The Blight. Once a bright and ambitious Scottish chemist, Talbot Grimes played one too many times with human lives for profits. His compounds became the bargaining chip with which his life was saved – only to be betrayed by those who had shown mercy to him. As he descended into darkness, the Entity bestowed him a field of bright orange flowers. Yep, right now that new Killer has stepped into the Fog, and you should be worried. Very worried.
Alongside The Blight is the new Survivor – Felix Richter. A brilliant Austrian architect, Felix comes from a long line of members of a secret society. After excelling in his field and as a soon-to-be father, Felix’ ambition brought him to the island where his father and other members of the society vanished. Through the ruins of the old Victorian buildings he was set to restore, Felix heard his father called from deep below. Beyond the ruins and into the Fog, down he went – never to be seen again.
To accompany these two new additions come a host of other bits and bobs too, with players gaining access to in-game cosmetics, including an exclusive jacket for Felix Richter. Two very rare outfits will also be made available for the newest Killer and Survivor, just as the new Oktober Fest collection is made available in the in-game store. This will allow you to raise a glass and celebrate this beloved Bavarian festival with Meg, Felix and Kate in colorful and cheerful outfits that will have players say: Prost!
But that’s not all, and as previously announced, Dead by Daylight is undergoing a major graphical update that will be available for free for all players, on all platforms. The first content update is being made available in this patch, with the Springwood and Yamaoka maps completely rehauled and the generators, pallets, chests and lockers benefiting from new models and animations.
So, are you ready to head back to Dead by Daylight? If so, the chance to Descend Beyond looks likely to give plenty of new scope. And if this isn’t the kick you need to jump back in, perhaps the arrival of a new addition to the beloved and iconic Silent Hill Legends Collection: the Cybill Bennett legendary set for Cheryl Mason, will. It is coming September 25th.
If you haven’t yet grabbed Dead by Daylight – the Xbox Store will sort you out.
