Dead by Daylight x Five Nights at Freddy’s Collab
Springtrap Arrives as the Animatronic Killer
Dead by Daylight x Five brings Springtrap, one of horror’s creepiest villains, into the Fog. This marks the first time Springtrap becomes a playable character in any game, which makes this update extra exciting.
Springtrap isn’t just scary for show; he’s packed with unique abilities and terrifying jump scares that will keep players on edge. His gameplay focuses on map-wide surveillance, relentless chases, and surprise attacks that leave Survivors screaming.
Explore Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Map
The Dead by Daylight x Five Nights at Freddy’s collab brings fans to a fully recreated Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria map. Players can explore familiar places like the Arcade, Kitchen, Janitor Room, and Dining Hall, all eerily decorated for a birthday party.
But here’s the twist: the map is filled with the Entity’s dark presence. You’ll also find hidden jump scares and fun easter eggs waiting around every corner. So, stay sharp, because surprises can pop out anywhere!
Master the Security Room and Doors
Springtrap’s new mechanic lets players use Security Doors scattered across the map. As Springtrap, you can enter one door and instantly pop out of another, creating shocking surprise attacks. Survivors can also use these doors to switch between Security Cameras, scouting ahead for danger.
However, there’s a catch: Springtrap can short-circuit doors and cameras with his axe, cutting off those advantages. Survivors need teamwork and quick thinking to outsmart him.
Springtrap’s Deadly Perks
The Dead by Daylight x Five Nights at Freddy’s update gives Springtrap three chilling perks.
Help Wanted shortens attack cooldowns when a generator is repaired. Phantom Fear causes nearby Survivors to scream and reveal their aura. Haywire increases Endgame tension by making Exit Gate progress drop if Survivors leave. Together, these perks turn Springtrap into a nightmare for anyone trying to escape.
Special Outfits and Legendary Skins during DBD x Five Nights at Freddy’s Collab
This update doesn’t stop at gameplay. Fans can collect awesome new looks, including the Yellow Rabbit Legendary Outfit inspired by the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie. It even features Matthew Lillard’s voice lines! Other legendary skins like Glitchtrap, Clown Springtrap, and Toxic Springtrap bring even more ways to customize the killer.
Plus, Survivors get Freddy Fazbear-themed t-shirts to join the celebration.
Conclusion
The Dead by Daylight x Five Nights at Freddy’s collaboration launches June 17, and it promises thrills for both horror fans and newcomers. Whether you’re chasing as Springtrap or running for your life, this update delivers unforgettable scares.
So, get ready to dive into the Fog, explore the Pizzeria, and face one of Dead by Daylight’s most chilling killers ever.
