What If Each License Was Expanded?

Title. I saw something like this a while back but I felt like making my own post. Idea is simple, a licence gets expanded with new content in some way. These would take varying levels of effort. I left out GF cause he doesn't have any associated characters other than scream, which they don't have the license to. These should be in chronological order.

Halloween: Dr Loomis as new survivor. Withered Michael as new skin.

Left 4 Dead: Smoker legendary skin for Death Slinger. Charger legendary skin for Billy. New map from the Sacrifice campaign.

TCM: Sally as new survivor. Pretty Lady skin for Leatherface

NOES: OG Nancy as new survivor. OG Freddy as skin.

Saw: Adam and Lawrence as new survivor. Hoffman skin for Pig.

Evil Dead: Cabin Map. Deadite Killer.

Stranger Things: Jim Hopper and Jonathan Byers as new survivors.

Silent Hill: Harry Mason and James Sunderland as new survivors. Butcher legendary skin for Pyramid Head.

What do you guys think?

    I want pig to have add-ons that change her RBTs to a different type of trap (like how Freddy can alter her power). Maybe a device alongside hooks where the pig can carry downed survivors and place them in? That would be cool.

    That would be sick. Its not like it would take much effort since stuff like the shotgun collar and the Death Mask serve basically the same purpose as RBTs anyway.

    Personally, I’d love to have new skins for Leatherface. Specifically “Pretty Woman” and his tuxedo from TCM2.

    For Freddy survivors, I’d love to see Kincaid from Nightmare 3.

    I think the only license that needs to be expanded is Ghostface's. We need Sydney Prescott as a survivor. She is the best final girl other than Laurie Strode in the horror movie genre.

    Also I'd make a replacement to your Stranger Things idea. Keep Johnathan Byers as an legendary skin for Steve, but put Robbin in her Scoops Ahoy™ outfit as a legendary skin for Nancy.

    Oh we also need Quentin's face reworked to resemble the actor (who agreed to the idea). Hopefully the NOES licensing fued gets settled and DBD can act on the long awaited face rework.

    I just want that Halloween 2018 outfit. Makes more people believe in the boogeyman

    I'd like some recolours for Bill's outfit - maybe brown, navy, and grey? They could also add in his outfits from the original concept art, young Bill from the Vietnam War, his outfit from Payday. I mostly just want some Bill customization.

    I'd be for it. The more goofy stuff the better.

    I agree...

    I think you might be thinking of the Angel Trap (from saw 3 and 4)

    Shotgun collar, The pipe trap from SAW 6, RBT 2.0,

    Also having different activation conditions

    Love the idea, wish they could do that.


    Halloween: Yes to Loomis. Prefer the “InFlames”

    Michael skin from the end of OGHalloweenII if they could ever get that.


    Left 4 Dead: Yes NEW MAP!!! More new maps plz!


    TCM: LadyLF is alright, prefer Erin from TCM2003 if devs could get her


    NOES: YES OG Freddy skin!!! Don’t need 2 Nancys on the survivor board. Prefer Alice from NOES4 if possible.


    Saw: New Pig skin is cool, Probs jus stick w Tapp


    Evil Dead: YES Cabin Map!!! Yes Deadite Killer!


    Stranger Things: Yes to Hopper or Jonathan but not both


    Silent Hill: Yes PH skin


    F13: Get JVoorhees by any & every means necessary as soon as he’s available, New Map, preferably Clay & Jenna from the 2009 reboot (either adult Tommy Jarvis or Creighton Duke & Jessica from JGTHTFF would be good additions also). Have to let Myers, LF, Freddy & Jason reign together on DBD.

    Jus throwing that in there...too many licenses I’d love to see them get. Jason’s jus a must tho; some ppl disagree, but I believe that the devs would do him justice make him one of the coolest & strongest killers in the game.


    on a non license note:

    Give Clown his own Circusy realm

    Completely rework TOP to fit more in w Huntress and give Plague her own map that isn’t in Red Forrest.

    I'm all for expanding the licences

    For cosmetics and new game mechanics

    I think that's a pretty great idea, and I think they could expand the Ghost Face lisence to include an original survivor and map. We all know which survivor and which map, too.

    Agreed, a Withered Michael outfit is honestly my most wanted aesthetic. Perhaps they could even change his music to the 2018 renditions.
