A few weeks back, Montreal-based Dead by Daylight developer Behaviour Interactive served up quite the plot twist when they revealed Nicolas Cage would be coming to the game as a Survivor. Not a specific character Nicolas Cage has played mind you, just the Nicolas Cage himself. The actor. In Dead by Daylight. Cage even showed up at Summer Game Fest to really make it official.
Well, the Dead by Daylight Nicolas Cage update officially hits public test servers today, and Behaviour has really gone above and beyond. His perks are all acting-themed and decidedly Cage-ian, including “Scene Partner” which allows you to see the Killer’s aura by screaming at them, and “Plot Twist” which essentially lets you come back from the dead. You can check out a quick teaser trailer for Dead by Daylight’s Nicolas Cage update, below.
Cage has recorded nearly 10 minutes of wacky voice clips for his Survivor, which you can listen to, below.
Here’s a more detailed rundown of Cage’s abilities from Dead by Daylight’s latest patch notes…
Nicolas Cage (Survivor)
- 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.
- The same effect cannot happen twice in a row. Causes exhaustion for 60/50/40 seconds. Can't be used while exhausted.
- 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.
Dead by Daylight can be played on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, Switch, and mobile platforms. Nicolas Cage is available as of today on public test servers. The update will be available for everyone on July 25.
