Dead by Daylight’s official launch trailer has the same introduction as the announcement trailer, but continues further and shows each of the Survivor protagonists that will be playable throughResident Evil’s downloadable content. Players receive a first look at Chris and Claire Redfield, as Claire is seen patching Chris up before Leon and Jill arrive to coordinate a plan. The launch trailer does not provide in-game footage of the characters. But it does reflect the entertaining potential of an entire group of Survivors roleplaying as the fourResident Evilcharacters in the Raccoon Police Department.
The official trailer briefly depicts eachResident Eviladdition toDead by Daylight, such as a roaming zombie, who exists as an NPC AI for Nemesis and may obstruct players as they attempt to repair generators. Nemesis, who istheResident EvilDLC’s selected Killer, does not have any skins currently associated to it.
Further, in addition to Chris and Claire Redfield joiningDead by Daylight’s character roster as Legendary skins, another pair of skins have been added. Fans are able to purchase Leon S. Kennedy’sResident Evil 4skin, from the beginning of the game where he is wearing a tan jacket. Moreover, fans are also able to purchase Jill Valentine’sResident Evil 3: Nemesisskin, where she is wearing her classic tube-top outfit.
However, players who wish to make these in-game purchases will ultimately have to spend more toward the skins than the actual downloadable content itself. Leon’sResident Evil 4outfit and Jill’sResident Evil 3outfit are both considered Very Rare cosmetics. The Very Rare cosmetics are currently discounted at 1,080 Auric Cells, which isDead by Daylight’s in-game currency.
With the Redfield siblings' cosmetics costing even more at 1,485 Auric Cells, it will be up to players' discretion whether they wish to purchaseDead by Daylight’s fan-favorite cosmetics. Nonetheless, fans have a great amount of content to enjoy throughDead by Daylight’s addition of theResident Evilfranchise.
Dead by Daylightis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
