Dead By Daylight Debuts New Killer Over Weekend Called The Plague

Over the weekend, Behaviour Studios decided to quietly release a new trailer and info on their next Dead By Daylight killer called The Plague. This is the last killer that will be added at the end of the Year Three roadmap, which includes another new map called The Temple of Purgation, and a new survivor called Jane Romero. The trailer below is called Demise of the Faithful and shows one of the creepiest looking killers they've created as she's basically half dead. You can read more about the killer below, as well as the map and reporter in their forums. We kind of excited about the survivor as Jane is a TV co-host who can heal herself while healing someone else, which we needed some kind of help for a while now in that department.

NEW KILLER: THE PLAGUE

We are very proud to introduce our "oldest" Killer in the game: The Plague. This High Priestess of Babylon was well known for her wealth, beauty, and devotion. In a time when a dark sickness had resurfaced, she was driven by her blind faith to save her followers… and herself. But nothing could save her. Not even faith.

The Plague's power: Vile Purge

The Killer launches a stream of vomit a short distance in front of her, which can hit multiple Survivors and environmental objects, causing them to become infected. The Survivor's infection will grow as they perform certain actions.

The vomit itself, when spread by the Killer on environmental objects, can infect Survivors. An infected Survivor's only respite can be found in the Pools of Devotion, which become corrupted themselves once they are used, so be careful.

The Killer can see the auras of corrupted Pools of Devotion and can interact with them, which will power up her Vile Purge power with additional devastating effects. However, once the Killer has used a corrupted Pool of Devotion, it takes time for it to revert to its clean state. During that time, it cannot be interacted with.

THE PLAGUE'S PERKS

Corrupt Intervention: Generators located furthest from the Killer are blocked by The Entity for a certain amount of time at the start of the trial. Survivors cannot repair these generators for the duration.

Infectious Fright: The cries of the unfaithful makes the Killer's heart leap. Any Survivors that are within the Killer's terror radius while another Survivor is put into the dying state with the basic attack, will yell and reveal their location to The Killer.

Dark Devotion: The display of the power creates a whirlwind of panic that spreads throughout the land. The Killer become obsessed with one survivor. Hitting the obsession with the basic attack causes the obsession to emit terror radius.
