Now that we know Jason Voorhees of Friday the 13th is finally coming to the game, Dead by Daylight‘s devs shared some exciting new information regarding this menacing killer. He is going to be just as much of an omnipresent evil as his movie counterpart, able to turn the very maps of DBD against the survivors.
As you all know, Jason Voorhees is evil incarnate. An undead revenant hell-bent on slaughtering anyone who dares stand in his path. Even when you think you’ve bested him and buried him six feet deep, he finds a way to come back and strike from the shadows. In Dead by Daylight, Jason retains this menacing, stalking, omnipresent nature through his power, also aptly named Omnipresent Evil.
This power, i.e., the first part of his power, is “a stealth-based ability that encapsulates the Killer’s knack for popping up in unexpected places to catch his victims off guard,” the devs explained.
