It chapter 2 is coming out and it looks like the makers of "IT"are up for doing a collabo with games. Please BHVR add pennywise. Inb4 but we already have a clown 🤡 Pennywise isn't actually a clown he's some sort of demonic shapeshifting creature. This would be so awesome

    Well the Demogorgon was released in Fortnite and then came to DBD...so you never know...

    Wiki quote:

    "It" is a horrific and malevolent cosmic entity, that is billions of years old, spawned in the void of the Macroverse and came to planet Earth to feed. It lives in the sewers of Derry, awakening every 27 years to prey on the town's children, feeding on their fears and using the writhing bright orange lights that comprised his own life essence called "Deadlights", a dangerous and eldritch form of energy (which is used as a dark magical weapon by another monstrous Stephen King villain known as the Crimson King) to make them "float".

    This demonic extra-dimensional entity had a body humans could only comprehend as a giant spider, but It would almost always disguise itself as a clown named "Pennywise" to attract children, so that it could capture and kill them as they were an easier target."



    I like how "IT" is described in as a spider-ish Entity similar to DBD's Entity.


    Anyways I don't see much of a chance for "IT" to become a DBD killer since "IT" is a mighty Entity itself but as Dr Loomis said: YOU NEVER KNOW.


    I would have never expected Behaviour to actually make a real non-human killer like the Demogorgon either.

    You know, it might be in the works. Xenomorph and Pennywise have by far gotten more than enough recognition now and I think the developers know that these 2 would make it incredible.

    I'm pretty sure this is an misconception. Demogorgon is "humanoid" they never really limited themselves much on that factor. It was mostly because of the weight of cost which would take to develop a brand new skeleton.

    I know they've never said they'd only make pure human killers but still I never expected them to add a killer that's merely "humanoid" given the fact all the other killers were real people in their past OR still are ordinary people (physically).

    If we get Pennywise then we need the Deadlights as an insta-kill add-on just like it is the book/films. Or if not as an awesome insta-kill add-on then the Mori because that's aesthetic and beautiful.

    It's very possible, although I doubt we'd be getting Pennywise from the movies as it doesn't fit lorewise. Maybe making Pennywise a husk of the Entity.

    Oh boy that's the reputation we want, the game that copies fortnite.

    If this means we get John Wick as a killer, I'd be for it.

    I'm doubtful. Pennywise could literally be the Entity's older sibling from a lore perspective. They'd have to talk Stephen King into making IT weaker than some copycat dimension hopper.

    Wait...why is Pennywise, a demonic evil creature who eats children being put....in fortnite? Of all games to make a crossover thats true to the lore...######### Fortnite...

    Yeah Stephen King is highly involved in his licenses. Ever since he got burned in the 80's. He's know to have an issue with people bastardizing his works like that. On one hand it is the reason why his content has been done so well in film form. On the other hand it is also why we get large spans where people don't want to deal with his license.

    I think Fortnite, even as colorful and goofy as it is, works because they can craft an event that easily showcases the extent of Pennywise's lore and powers. DBD is much more limiting as it everything sort of needs to bend to the Entity's will.
