Lara Croft in Dead by Daylight’s Latest Update 8.1.0
Lara Croft, the famous adventurer from Tomb Raider, is joining Dead by Daylight as a new survivor. This exciting crossover will be available starting July 16, 2024. Here’s a simple rundown of what to expect and the changes coming to the game.
Who is Lara Croft in Dead by Daylight?
Lara Croft is known for her daring adventures and survival skills. In Dead by Daylight, she will not have her usual weapons like bows or pistols. Instead, she will have three unique perks that make her a strong survivor against the killers in the game. These perks use her experience and skills from her adventures.
New Game Update: Version 8.1.0
A big update, version 8.1.0, is coming with Lara Croft. Here are the key changes:
- Killer Perk Updates: Some perks for killers are getting better. For example, the “Darkness Revealed” perk will show the aura of survivors for a longer time. Other perks like “I’m All Ears” and “Trail of Torment” will have shorter cooldowns, meaning they can be used more often.
- Survivor Perk Updates: Survivor perks are also improved. The “Autodidact” perk will start with a smaller penalty, and the “Empathic Connection” perk will heal others faster.
- Changes to Killers: The Knight and The Singularity killers are getting adjustments to their abilities, making the game more balanced.
- Map Updates: New variations of maps are added, and some maps have changes to make them more fun and fair.
New Features
- Disconnect Bots: If a player leaves the game during loading, a bot will take their place so the game can continue without stopping.
- Hook Respawn: Hooks that are broken will come back after 60 seconds, adding new strategies to the game.
How to Play the New Content Early
If you play Dead by Daylight on PC through Steam, you can try the new content early by accessing the Public Test Build (PTB). Here’s how:
