Throughout this event, players can immerse themselves in a dynamic 2v8 mode featuring iconic antagonists such as Nemesis and the Mastermind. Each of these formidable killers possesses unique powers to disturb the survivors, who can only counteract these effects with a singular antidote found in Supply Crates. In homage to the classic Resident Evil franchise, the introduction of Herbs as healing items adds a clever twist to the gameplay. Various herb types scattered across the 2v8 map will serve to offer restorative benefits against damage sustained during matches. As an added challenge, killers have the ability to destroy these herbs, increasing tension between the competing teams.
In addition to gameplay features, the crossover will introduce an array of new cosmetics inspired by Resident Evil. Players can expect to see outfits like Nemesis’s classic look from the original Resident Evil 3 (1999) and the New Dawn outfit from the Resident Evil 4 remake for the Mastermind, alongside fresh designs for the survivors. With the crossover event just days away, both Resident Evil aficionados and Dead by Daylight fans have plenty to anticipate starting on February 10, 2025.
