The Killer role is both the loneliest and often the most challenging in Dead by Daylight. Role specialists look forward to the ever-growing roster of Killers in DBD. Each new Killer introduces new abilities and new playstyles, keeping the game as exciting as possible.
DBD's Failed eSports Scene
The DBD player base loves Behavior Interactive’s original creation. Yet, the thrill of stepping into the shoes of iconic villains from beloved horror series is a little different. Hunting down Survivors as a notorious villain increases DBD’s replayability, and many often speculate about the next Killer in Dead by Daylight to see what will keep them coming back for more.
So far, there has been no official announcement about the identity of the next Killer in Dead by Daylight. The developers tend to keep their cards under wraps, so the first wave of information has come mostly from leaks.
However, recent announcements about the next Survivor in Dead by Daylight have revealed Lara Croft (Tomb Raider) as the next Survivor. This collaboration also opens up intriguing possibilities for potential Killers. While it may be a stretch, it’s not entirely impossible that Behaviour Interactive could take inspiration from the Tomb Raider universe for a future Killer. Characters like Konstantin, Mathias, and even Ana could be turned into Killers in DBD.
