As posted by dbdleaks on Twitter, we have our first look at Wesker, Rebecca, and Ada for the Resident Evil: W chapter of DBD. So far it looks like we’re just getting the standard cosmetics, but how great would it be if we got a Lance Reddick skin for Dead by Daylight? Maybe we could eventually get a Billy legendary cosmetic for Rebecca. The show may have not been the best, but he was great in it.
Like Nemesis, Wesker is going to be able to infect you with a virus (this time the Uroboros virus) which you can heal with a new disposable item, First Aid Spray. His perks are Superior Anatomy, Awakened Awareness, and Terminus. The survivors’ perks aren’t fully revealed as of yet, but right now for Ada they are Wiretap, Reactive Healing, and Low Profile. Rebecca’s perks are currently Better than New, Reassurance, and Hyperfocus.
Wesker’s Perks
Superor Anatomy
When a survivor fast vaults within 8 meters of you, your normal speed is increased by 30/35/40% for 3 seconds. It deactivates once you vault and has a cooldown of 30 seconds.
Awakened Awareness
When carrying a survivor you can see the aura of other survivors within 16/18/20 meters of you. Auras stay visible for 2 seconds after you stop carrying the survivor.
Terminus
When exit gates are powered, the perk activates. Injured, downed, and hooked survivors are inflicted with broken until the gates are opened. After the gates are opened they will stay broken for 20/25/30 seconds after the gates are opened.
Survivor Perks
As mentioned, survivor perks aren’t finished yet, but as of right now they appear to be for Ada:
Wiretap
Allows her to spu on a killer
Reactive Healing
Gain a surge of healing when her allies are hurt
Low Profile
Leave no trace when you’re the final survivor.
And for Rebecca:
Better Than New
Give her teammates speed boosts
Reassurance
Give temporary relief to struggling allies
Hyperfocus
Complete skill checks at increased speed.
Stranger Things
On top of the Resident Evil W leaks, they also posted videos of the rumored new Stranger Things map. There is no telling when the map will be out, but it looks like it’s still early in the development process. There’s no telling if this will replace the old Hawkins map or if this is a rework of it. This new one appears to be more of how it looked in season 4 and while they could just have it be a different wing of the lab, it will probably replace it. There’s no way to know right now if we will see the old map return or if they will hold off and only release this new map. With the map looking more like it did in season 4 of the show, it is a very good possibility that we see Vecna make an appearance as a killer in the future too.
Wesker should be officially announced on Wednesday, August 3 when Behaviour streams their Behaviour Beyond event. Right now, that is all that has been confirmed as they announced they would reveal what the W stands for, but anything else is anyone’s guess. It could be that they announce Stranger Things return or they will make a smaller announcement on Twitter for that in the future. It’s also speculated that we will see new games that Behaviour has been working on, their last one being Death Garden (RIP).
What do you think? Are you excited for the Behaviour Beyond event? Will you be playing Ada, Rebecca, or Wesker when they come out? Let us know.
