* What the dark night brings…Japan’s proud gothic horror masterpiece finally makes its way to the foggy forest! *
This is our second collaboration with Konami Digital Entertainment, which brings together characters representing the horror world in Dead by
Japan’s proud gothic horror masterpiece “Castlevania” will be added to the world of “Daylight”. “Akumajo Dracula,” which has long held a position as a timeless masterpiece in the game industry, has captivated fans through its numerous works for nearly 40 years. 『Dead The “by Daylight” team is truly a fan, and in this chapter we express our passion for Dracula and the Belmont family in *pixel* We paid attention to even the smallest details.
Regarding this collaboration, the Konami Digital Entertainment team has the following to say:
* “We also have “Dead by”
Daylight” and have heard that they value our games and stories, so I had high expectations for this collaboration from the beginning. This time “Dead”
by
While working on the project with the “Castlevania Daylight” team, I was really happy to see their love for the “Castlevania” series and their attention to detail everywhere. ”*
* “Dark Lord” attacks survivors using the “transformation ability” implemented for the first time in the foggy forest *
In order to give shape to their passion for the work, the development team focused on the elements of Dracula’s special ability,
shapeshifter, and created “Dead by
We implemented the first transformation ability in “Daylight”. This ability allows the Dark Lord to smoothly transform into three forms. With each form exhibiting different characteristics, players using the Dark Lord will feel as if they are controlling three different types of killers.
– *Vampire Form*
: The Dark Lord can perform an attack called “Hellfire” in his normal form. This attack releases multiple pillars of flame in front of you, piercing through obstacles such as pallets and window frames. – *Wolf Form*:
Since it becomes a third-person perspective and has a wider field of view, it is better at tracking down survivors. Red wound marks and blood pools are now more clearly visible, and the “Scents” that survivors regularly leave behind are now more clearly visible. In addition to being able to detect the direction of survivors with “Scent Orbs,” collecting scent orbs increases movement speed. If the prey comes within reach, it can pounce and attack.
– *Bat Form*
: Increases movement speed and can be operated from a third-person perspective, similar to the wolf form. In his bat form, his threat range remains hidden and he can teleport to nearby obstacles such as pallets or window frames, making him adept at stealth. Although survivors cannot be seen in their bat state, they can see red scar marks and hear their footsteps more easily.
A ruthless Dracula full of confidence and dignity, the Dark Lord never hides his hatred for humans. As evidence of this, in the Dark Lord’s Memento Mori, there is a cruel scene in which he slits the neck of a survivor with his sharp claws, pours the flowing blood into a glass, and then drinks it all in one gulp without looking at the survivor dying at his feet. Ready…
* “Trevor Belmont” fights for the pride of the Belmont family * The new survivor introduced in this chapter is Trevor Belmont, who has faced supernatural forces many times. The eternal battle between him and Dracula is relocated to the Misty Forest, where the Belmond family uses their unique traits to help other survivors and confront their archenemy. Trevor has three new perks.
– *Eyes of Belmont*
: Once the generator is repaired, you can see Killer’s aura for a short time. Also, when the killer’s aura is displayed, its display time will be extended.
– *Exultation*: If you scare a killer with a pallet, the rarity of the item you own increases by one.
– *Moment of Glory*
: A perk that activates when a certain number of chests are scavenged. After activation, the player will be injured and weakened, but after a certain amount of time, their health will recover by one level.
* Many costumes that vividly color the world view of the series * Castlevania, one of the oldest game series in history, has many memorable characters and fashions. *
“Akumajo Dracula Collection”*
contains items reminiscent of famous members of the Belmondo family and the Dracula family, allowing you to peek into a part of the story that is intricately intertwined in the work.
