Another reason why I see the rumor is fake because of the candyman one when mentioned it’s blacklisted for slavery, the knights lore had him saving the faithful three from slavery so that makes no sense as to why candyman is blacklisted. And the Entity had all these survivors and killers that basically slavery already because survivors can’t die to escape they are trapped so how does that get allowed but not candyman?

The Wallrider would be kind of OP as a killer, wouldn't it? It's pretty much a swarm of nanites that, as shown if the Wallrider catches you in Outlast's finale, can literally enter your body and rip you apart from the inside out. Then again, the more powerful current killers have their power capped by the Entity so that they play along instead of just killing the survivors straight away, so maybe it could work?

Normally I would be heavily against a non horror franchise, however with how damn terrifying Darth Vader as a killer would be, I can't say it wouldn't hype me up more than any license that has come before

[@asgorne]

Understandable. But also there are licenced killers and original killers in the game less horrific than darth vader. And the Lich comes from a franchise not entirely focused on horror. I don't like the idea of the force being a power so I kind of hope he can be an oni skin instead as they are very similar in terms of a slasher type horror

This quite frankly the biggest pile of shit I've ever heard. The entirety of these "rumors" are either 1: nothing burger statments and totally vauge ie: DBD getting a "massive free update" 2: so obvious that it's ridiculous ie: Unknown getting a blighted skin, springtrap and Michael Afton being FNAF 3: so laughably bullshit it's satire ie: Stars Wars coming to dbd, Candyman being "blacklisted for Slavery themes" These rumors are total bs at it's finest

[@heronik79]

Literally Knight was a slave "He didn’t even react when they carried him off to a horse-drawn buggy and locked him up in a small, wooden cage with other slaves"

[@Rhavin_Damodread]

The supposed confirmation is that he predicted Freddy would be able to teleport to finished gens (which was extremely obvious) and that deep wound rework was survivor sided (it really wasn’t) along with the prediction of a RE 2v8, which hasn’t been announced or confirmed in any way or with solid evidence. It’s definitely not real (the leaks that is)

[@stinkgood_inc]

And the description for the fnaf chapter sounds too good to be true. Springtrap never actually used an axe, that's just pure headcannon made by the fans lmao

[@heronik79]

@@stinkgood_inc at one side it could be like a metaphor that Springtrap always comes back from being burned so the fire axe that is used when there's fire and also Wesker uses a knife when he never used it... But on the other, ye, it was just a fan idea and at least Wesker was in STARS and they all get the combat knife

[@AegisOfIgnister]

I feel like the fnaf survivors/killer leak isn't that far off. The fnaf collab is confirmed to be released in Summer 2025, and Springtrap would be the best candidate. It just depends on who could be the survivor. It could be Michael Afton since he ties with William Afton (Springtrap) and/or could go the movie route with Vanessa (Which I kinda doubt they would do). The tome thing would be really cool but that is questionable, and the Springtrap axe weapon could be weird but would make sense in some way. It would call back to The Living Tombstone who ofc is very popular in terms of fanmade fnaf music and in Die In A Fire, the nightguard uses an axe (This is really the only reason it would be included). I do think it'll likely be a knife since it would fit with the movie and would look a lot more intimidating but cool.

[@derangedpenquin]

i just thought about this, in the ptb dev notes they very much hinted that the killer free trials would be more event focused... so many be perfect timing for resident evil killers for free in 2v8, since they were a big focus on free killers first go around.

[@MidnightSlasher]

Disney in DBD is stupid, at that point just get Dead Space... Isaac clark IS LITERALLY ASPACE ENGINEER AND WOULD BE USEFUL FOR GEN REAPIRS! hell the dlc doesnt even need a killer, because most necromorphs are just mutated corpses

[@KadimusPrime]

Xenomorph is owned by Disney now so it already exists in DBD.

[@eucliffbentley9670]

i think vader could fit but they def need to knock off stuff like dead space before they do something like that.

Tbf Xenomorph is owned by Disney but at least that’s from a horror franchise. If they want more shit from them just get Predator or make a Brundlefly skin for Singularity.

[@Shadowcat753]

The idea of a zombie Darth Vadar seems pretty interesting....

[@Zoulz666]

I'm all for more RE content in DbD. Jack baker as the killer and Ethan as the survivor would make a really good chapter imo. The star wars stuff kinda teeters on the edge of what i'd call horror but Darth vader is a pretty terrifying character and I think could fit in DbD. Would be pretty dope to hear the imperial march as a terror radius. :D They'd probably make a lot of money doing a star wars collab.

If they do any popular sci-fi franchise I think Doctor Who makes more sense there are so many alien species that would be so cool in DBD. (Daleks, Weeping Angel, The Silence.) All have their own unique powers and all have their own scare factor that many people found scary when they watched the show.

[@_Legoman1376_]

Also the Vashta Nerada (the library.) the skeletons in the space suits that hunt and attack in the shadows would be terrifying in the dark maps of DBD.

[@evoxghiretti]

I imagine the Star Wars trailer would be just like the end of Rogue One. A survivor is running away, maybe the power is force pull related or something and pulls the survivor back. The survivor runs through a dark spot and freezes unsure of where the killer is. Then you hear the labored breathing, and then the survivor slowly turns around. The camera pans to the darkness and then the red lightsaber ignites.

I dont think BHVR would turn down vader if they came to them, they literally have DND vecna.

Regarding the Fnaf speculation and rumor Scott Cawthon did say on a podcast with Dawko after the DBD reveal news that he'll be working closely with Behavior on the project because FNAF is still his franchise, its still his creations, his baby so its not a rumor but fact that Scott will be working closely on that project with Behavior so its not rumor but a straight fact since he doesn't want it going off from fnaf themed and it not being the way he would like it to be. Tokyo Ghoul no one has really heard much on but if Kaneki is supposed to be a killer then the skin for store will probably be either Risè Camishiro, Nashiro or Kurona from Tokyo Ghoul, my honest hope on if they aren't rumors is for leakers to stop ruining it because things keep getting delayed with killers, survivors and other things like maps because of them ruining things with telling people these sorts of things.

Springtrap having a ranged attack is slightly worrying, but since Scot is looking over the production I have some faith. By the way when I say worry, I mean staying true to the source material.

[@ReactiveDeactive]

If Hasbro is further interested in collaborating with DBD then they are willing to either add more DND styled content or they could go further. Knowing Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast, their next step would be to do a MTG (Magic the gathering) cross over giving DBD its horror contents like Eldrazi and Phyrexians, and then collaborating with Behavior to make a Secret Lair Drop turning DBD’s original killers into Magic cards. I’m not sure how willingly behavior would want to do it, but knowing the other side very well they would be well liking to do so being Magic has slowly been becoming a IP game meshed with its own likeness. (Similar to DBD at this rate.)

Potential Powers- Abeloth: I really don't know what to do for her Mnggal-Mnggal Husk: You can use create Mnggal-Mnggal Bats (slow down/debuff), Puddles (traps), or Worms (Gen Regression). As the trial goes on "your" body decays until it's unusable, requiring you to kill/mori Survivors so you can enter and use their bodies. That survivor will not be registered dead until one of the survivors figure out who you are. At the start of the game you appear as a random survivor that you took over before the trial. Black Wing Zombie Commander: The trial starts with 2-3 other zombies in play, these zombies will pick up and use items on the survivors after a certain amount of time passes, when a survivor is morried they will turn into a zombie. You can command these zombies to do multiple things such as: Patrol (the zombie(s) patrol a designated area), Break (the zombie breaks a wall or pallet of your choice), Use, and Follow (the Zombie follows you for a limited limited amount of time). The story behind Mnggal-Mnggal's power is based on it's lore, it's true form being a viscous grey sludge capable of forming into bat-like creatures and worms, it looks for hosts so it can exert it's will more effectively, it's sludge eats away at a victim's insides so Mnggal- Mnggal can have full reign over the body, this corpse decays after a week of use, these corpses still apear human, allowing it to blend into society. The story behind the Black Wing Commander's power is in the lore as novel in the novel the Black Wing Zombies are very intelligent, using surprise to their advantage, using psychological warfare + enjoying it, learning to use blasters, and even pilot ships.

I could see Halo's Flood being an interesting choice for a licensed chapter with Sgt Johnson as a character

[@annaisntcool]

Not to be a hater, but adding JP or Star Wars content would further water down the horror atmosphere of the game. Over the years the game has been getting less and less horror centric, which is fine...BUT there is a fine line that I worry they may cross if they add such blatantly NOT horror licenses. Jurassic Park and Star Wars are not horror. Save those for Fortnite instead lol

[@wicky6734]

the backtracking plus his only credible thing being a freddy prediction which was already obvious, bearing in mind he didnt even confidently say anything and tried to make it subjective as possible, while also giving 0 sources and saying candyman is blacklisted is just clear BS honestly. whether he has sources or not, its clear HE isnt the one who knows anything.

[@DammitIvaldi]

Why would Candyman be blacklisted when they were literally working with them a few years ago and Tony Todd was following BHVR at one point?

The thing I can think of is Tony Todd’s passing. Was Candyman even blacklisted to begin with or is this simply another rumor?

[@TheDogslowman]

I understand why a lot of people don't want Darth Vader because he's not horror character but do I have to remind you that dbd hasn't been a horror game in years. We have Chucky and fnaf soon. I understand that child's Play 1-3 were horror films but the rest is all comedy, and springtrap doesn't have much horror elements. fnaf 3 is more repetitive and annoying than scary. Darth Vader does stuff in the canon comics that would outclass those two in terms of horror. Not to mention the silly cosmetics we have in this game. dbd is far from a horror game, adding darth vader won't ruin it.

[@TheJonkler1]

[@numberedbeast3911]

Low key confusing because the indoraptor has no known ability in the franchise to go invisible, me personally I hope it’s undetectable having a big Dino as a new stealth killer is terrifying. The leakers seem to be making strange calls regarding the information. My hopes are up and ready for anything(fnaf could also be a curveball because of the books and the new game coming out)

[@tennessee426]

Okay so there's two star wars timelines legends and Disney. Death troopers novel was from legends. The fact that legends is getting loved by BHVR makes me happy.

[@dinodude4039]

The Star Wars one seems really strange to me. BHVR have always been the types to take what they can get (as shown by Freddy), so why would they suddenly get really picky about licensing one of the biggest franchises of all time?

[@braytonewell]

Well, people start fighting a bit when some think a chapter doesn't really "belong" in the game, like Lara Croft, for instance (I think she's fine, though!). Apparently, Cote actually said this upcoming chapter will cause that a bit, but I think BHVR generally tries to stay away from anything that just strays TOO far from horror. Star Wars doesn't really work with DbD's idea, though a Vader killer WOULD be cool.

[@dinodude4039]

@braytonewell If Dungeons & Dragons is horror-adjacent enough to be in DBD, I don't see why Star Wars would be a problem. Hell, I think it's one of the franchises that people would complain the least about.

[@lowelheimtheaveragegamer9431]

...once one of the biggest franchise of all time. Now, no more.

Vader would be cool but i see what you're coming from.

[@asgorne]

I get that he's not a horror character. But dbd isn't really a horror game. Darthvader (when the cinematography is right) is an extremely intimidating and menacing slasher. Darth vader is the opposite to a jumpscare, as in he just slowly slow walks his way through a corridor murdering everybody in his way. He is essentially just a sci-fi licenced version of the oni. And imo oni is a really interesting killer that fits in to dbd. "Oni is a Japanese monster", they can turn darthvader into an infected. His power won't really fit in the game in terms of balancing so maybe he should just be an oni skin

[@gabrielclonkey]

Death Troopers is in fact not canon to the Current Star Wars universe. It's a Legends novel, and currently is not canon. However, Zombies similar to the ones depicted in Death Troopers are canon.

@@summerlee2023 I long wanted Alien, so I got happy when a xenomorph joined! And both under Disney, it'd be cool to have Predator as well! The sad thing is, Alien having mixed ratings likely decreases the chance of a Predator chapter. :( I think Xeno was widely accepted in the PTB; it's just the chapter's cost that causes it to have a mid-rating. But to be fair to BHVR, the price of the DLC is likely high due to Disney giving the license a high cost.

Belive it or not, Darth Vader can also be extremly Scary. Yes he looks most of the Time like a classic Villain that you take serious but youre not Scared of him. But in Star Wars Episode 3, Rogue One and Episode 5 Empire Strikes Back, Vader was actually pretty scary. He is from all Star Wars Characters the Best Fit for the Game with only Darth Sidious fitting even better. Then the Fact that we get Maybe another Resident evil Dlc is great because i did wish for a long time that we get a New Resident Evil Dlc and some new Cosmetics. Jack as a Killer, Ethan as a Survivor and a RE8 Chris, Lady Dimitrescu and the Baby as Skins for Leon, Nemesis and Dredge would be funny and cool

Honestly, despite "Death Troopers" being more well known, I would prefer a Space Wierd as a star wars killer. A part of both star wars legends and canon that's 100% horror (probably why Disney won't go near them), and would fit VERY well into Dbd lore.
