Dead by Daylight has joined forces with the iconic Resident Evil series to introduce an exhilarating new 2v8 mode that promises to redefine the gameplay experience. This special event brings to life some of Capcom's most chilling villains, infusing the game with a thrilling twist.
Players can now embody two notorious antagonists: Nemesis and Albert Wesker, also known as The Puppeteer. They will confront a squad of Resident Evil's most celebrated heroes, including:
- Jill Valentine
- Leon Kennedy
- Claire Redfield
- Ada Wong
The battleground is set within the hauntingly familiar corridors of the Raccoon City Police Station, providing an immersive backdrop for these intense encounters.
This collaboration marks a historic moment by teaming up Nemesis and Wesker in a back-to-back configuration for the first time in this format, delivering an unparalleled gaming experience. Both characters employ their distinctive infection-based abilities: Nemesis wields the T-Virus, while Wesker harnesses the power of Uroboros to target Survivors.
In the 2v8 mode, players can gather unique herbs inspired by the Resident Evil series. These herbs serve various purposes; some offer healing for Survivors, while yellow herbs are utilized to repair hooks. Interestingly, Killers can also collect herbs, which temporarily boost their speed, adding a layer of strategy to their gameplay.
Whether you're a newcomer to the 2v8 mode or a veteran, there are significant changes to be aware of. The conventional Powers and Perks have been supplanted by a new Class System, which opens up a range of strategic possibilities for both Killers and Survivors.
The Dead by Daylight x Resident Evil crossover will be available until February 25, offering players plenty of time to dive into this gripping blend of horror and strategy. Don't miss out on this unique gaming opportunity!
