Useless by Daylight already boasts an infinite roster of authentic characters and horror legends from different franchises, together with Resident Evil, Silent Hill, The Ring, Stranger Issues, A Nightmare on Elm Road, Dungeons & Dragons, and the newly launched Castlevania crossover. However an upcoming collaboration will add an much more surprising popular culture character to the combination. Behaviour Interactive introduced Monday that we will count on a 5 Nights at Freddy’s crossover in Summer time 2025.
In Useless by Daylight, 5 gamers enter a match. 4 play Survivors, who’re helpless and unarmed, however tasked with powering up mills and escaping the killing grounds. They’re relentlessly hunted by a Killer, who has a wide range of deadly powers at their disposal. It’s simple to see how the murderous animatronics that employees Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza may match into this method.
The 5 Nights at Freddy’s franchise has grown to incorporate a large assortment of video games, novels, and even a movie adaptation. It’s unclear how a lot content material Behaviour will pull upon for this collaboration; some updates solely add a Killer or a Survivor, whereas a full Chapter will embody a Killer, a Survivor, and a brand new map. With such a large library of video games, it’ll be fascinating to see what Behaviour makes use of as inspiration for the Killer and its talents.
Useless by Daylight additionally permits its Killers to finish some gory animations. Every Killer has their very own “Momento Mori” scene, exhibiting how they personally eradicate a hapless Survivor. I’m already nervous serious about what it’d appear to be for Freddy Fazbear to homicide somebody together with his bear palms. Fortunately, I don’t have to fret about this haunting my goals for an additional yr or so.
