Remedy’s creative director, Sam Lake, also expressed excitement about the collaboration, highlighting the surprisingly compatible lore and inspirations shared by both games.
The Authentic Alan Wake Experience
If you’re wondering how Alan Wake will look and sound in Dead By Daylight, worry not! The DBD version of our favorite horror protagonist is brought to life by the same actors who portrayed him in Alan Wake 2. Ilkka Villi and Matthew Porretta have lent their appearance and voice respectively to create an authentic and immersive experience. So get ready to feel the adrenaline rush as you listen to Alan’s screams and grunts echoing through your game.
Unique Perks to Survive the Night
But that’s not all! Alan Wake comes with three unique perks that will give you an edge in your battle against the killers. Let’s dive into them:
- Champion of Light: This perk makes you faster and more adept at blinding killers while wielding a flashlight. It’s like having the power of light on your side, illuminating your path and stunning those who dare cross it.
- Boon: Illumination: With this perk, you can create a totem that grants nearby survivors the ability to see the auras of generators and chests. It’s like having a supernatural compass guiding you towards valuable resources.
- Deadline: We all mess up sometimes, but fear not! Deadline kicks in when you inevitably get injured, increasing the frequency of skill checks during healing or repairing. While it may sound challenging, it also reduces the penalty for missing each skill check. It’s a chance for redemption amidst the chaos.
