Dead by Daylight's Alien collab confirms Ripley survivor and Xenomorph killer

Dead by Daylight has a new Killer in town, and it's one all horror fans know (and likely fear): the Xenomorph. Behaviour Interactive has released all of the details of its new Alien collaboration following a teaser that provided a glimpse into the new Nostromo Wreckage Map. The announcement confirmed not only the Xenomorph's role as Dead by Daylight's latest Killer but also the introduction of Ellen Ripley as a Survivor. 

The Dead by Daylight Alien update introduces a new killer in the form of the Xenomorph, new survivor in Ellen Ripley, and even a new map, the Nostromo. But the multiplayer horror game from BHVR is also undergoing some changes with regard to disconnects, meaning that players will no longer be able to leave games in order to spectate on DBD bots if they choose to bow out mid-play. It comes as part of the new Dead by Daylight patch, which introduces a variety of changes to both the overall experience and the bots themselves.

Developer Behaviour Interactive has announced that the latest public test build for Dead by Daylight now features the Xenomorph as a new playable Killer.

Behaviour Interactive has fully lifted the lid on the long-awaited Dead by Daylight Alien expansion, confirming Ellen Ripley as the new survivor and revealing a number of new mechanics for survivors and killers alike.

Dealing with a remorseless alien killing machine is still better than being hunted by Nicolas Cage.

Behaviour Interactive have shared more details of the Alien expansion for asymmetrical PVP affair Dead By Daylight, which adds Giger's celebrated hoover-faced menace to the game's line-up of playable horror movie villains. I've never played Dead By Daylight - going by my Among Us stats, I make a pretty shambolic assassin and besides, the whole impale-people-on-hooks sacrifice mechanic is just so urrrgh - but I will always play an Alien game, and Behaviour's take on the xenomorph is intriguing.

After teasing it last week, Behaviour Interactive has officially announced that the sci-fi horror franchise Alien is the latest property to cross over with its asymmetrical horror game Dead by Daylight.

Dead By Daylight is adding its long awaited Alien collaboration, and it turns out it's not just a Xenomorph being added, but also Ellen Ripley, the Nostromo, and also a flame turret to mess with the Xenomorph, too. 

After briefly teasing it last week, Behaviour Interactive has released the full details of their upcoming Dead by Daylight: Alien crossover. If you aren’t content playing as the Survivor Nic Cage, you’ll now be able to play as Ellen Ripley. Those looking for a new Killer will get the classic Xenomorph alien from the movies. Furthermore, players will be able to escape the Xenomorph in a new Nostromo Wreckage map themed after the crashed ship.

The Dead by Daylight Alien crossover now has a release date, as the horror game also reveals the map and survivor for the update, too. To the delight of us all, I’m sure, Ellen Ripley has been confirmed as the survivor for the Alien chapter of DBD, with more to come in Dead by Daylight as well.

A new was released by Behaviour Interactive, showing off the Xenomorph in all its glory alongside Ellen Ripley.

Dead By Daylight has had no problems capturing fans’ attention for years now. The video game continues to thrive with its new crossovers. Iconic horror films and television shows have been featured in the game, and it’s not slowing down anytime soon. In fact, we recently had the grand unveiling of Alien being brought into the game next. That teaser just alerted fans of what to expect. Today’s video drop gives you a far more terrifying experience.
