He's pretty dramatic in this one.
A great day for Nicolas Cage fans: the actor is now available in Dead by Daylight as a Survivor.
According to the lore, Cage, transfixed by a script, arrives at a mysterious set to deliver the performance of his life but has a surprise waiting for him.
His abilities include:
- Dramaturgy: Activates while you are healthy. While running, press the Active Ability Button 2 to run with knees high for 0.5 seconds and then gain 25% Haste for 2 seconds, followed by an unknown effect (one of the following).
- Exposed for 12 seconds
- Gain 25% Haste for 2 seconds
- Scream, but nothing happens
- Gain a random rare item in hand with random add-ons and drop any held item
Scene Partner: Activates when you are in the Killer's Terror Radius. Whenever you look at the Killer, scream, then see the Killer's aura for 3/4/5 seconds. There is a chance you will scream again, if you do, you will see the Killer's aura for an additional 2 seconds. Scene Partner then goes on cool-down for 60 seconds.
Plot Twist: Activates when you are injured. Press the Active Ability Button 2 while crouched and motionless to silently enter the dying state. When using Plot Twist to enter the dying state, you leave no blood pools, make no noise, and you can fully recover from the dying state. When you recover by yourself using Plot Twist, you are fully healed instantly and you gain 50% Haste for 2/3/4 seconds. This perk deactivates if you recover by yourself by any means. The perk re-activates when the exit gates are powered.
"Mr Cage recorded all his voice lines and was involved every step of the way; his dedication to his craft and professionalism is unmatched. We feel very privileged to have him and to our players: you're in for a treat!" said Mathieu Côté, head of partnerships for Behaviour Interactive.
Cage is available in the Public Test Build on Steam, with the full Chapter arriving on July 25.
