This chapter also introduces Felix Richter, described as a visionary architect who was looking for his father when he disappeared. Felix has special abilities like being able to see the auras of generators within a certain distance, which brings an interesting addition to the pool ofDead by Daylightsurvivorsthat players can use as they attempt to escape from its collection of killers.

On September 8, players will get to see these new characters in action as they try to escape or take down the survivors.
