What kind of killer do you think will be added to the roster next?

Personally I believe there are 2 options

Option 1. A licensed killer, of those options I believe Xenomorph, Jason or Slenderman are the most likely options

Option 2. A original killer, while I can't say I know how BHVR thinks (I imagine many of us do) I personally would like to see a Dragon-style killer (Yes it could work I made a post about it like a month ago, go look at that if you disagree) or a Illusionist that is basically Doctor's Madness illusions but way more trippy

    I mean you are right, there are no other options.

    I'm hoping for a bug/spider hybrid.

    Creepy Crawlies

    I believe i just heard the shriek of many arachnophobes in the distance

    for reals though, that'd be sick

    Option 3....

    "The Legendary Skins Chapter".

    No new killer, no new survivor, just double the amount of premium skins!

    I can... they will sell this chapter as "we wanted to commit development time to fixing issues (that we purposefully added in just for this excuse). As the design team have not had any new killer/survivor to work on... they have created even more skins for you to buy".

    Us: "Erm, we don't want to pay for all this crap."

    Devs: "Our statistics show that 100% of skins bought are by people who bought them."

    Its probably gonna be an OG chapter if I had to guess, I really want to see BHVRs take on a monster of some kind.

    I think DBD needs to come up with something different because some killers are starting to have similar powers Oni is similar to billy. Ghost face is similar to Michael. And Spirit is similar to wraith. Each of those killers mentioned first having better versions of their power. So I hope the new killer has a unique power not similar to others.

    Maybe a boogeyman killer or something similar

    With the release of blight I'm pretty sure they're running out of ideas. Only thing I can think of that they haven't done something with is fire.

    I'd like another area control killer. I think its been a while since we had one of those. I don't really count Pyramids trails as one.

    Also a trapper "cube" or buff.

    I was originally disappointed by the BLights power having nothing to really do with a researcher. That said I think hes the most fun and best designed killer since Oni. I want to be hype but after Death slinger and Pyramid Head I can't see us getting another killer as good as blight so soon.

    I'm inclined to guess we've got a decent shot at a licensed character for the next chapter. BHVR usually like to aim for two original and two licensed killers each year. We've already gotten Deathslinger and Blight, but I think Pyramid Head was the only licensed killer of 2020 so far.

    People can speculate about who the licensed killer would be (if they are indeed a licensed character), but I do hope it's either Jason, the Xenomorph, or more survival horror game characters personally.

    I had a really terrible self made killer with perks lol I made this a few months back and thought since there is speculation that the new killer could be a werewolf thought I would share it again. This is just my idea of how a werewolf killer could be I would love to here your ideas aswell for another werewolf/werebeast killer. My idea is that I wanted to basically transform in game and that be his power. Not him just be an already transformed werewolf the entire time. 


    The Alpha/Werewolf


    Base form could be your normal Survivor sized with tattered cloths and whatnot. Idk what his weapon would be in base for a knife is just to simple. Maybe give him an axe like the huntress. Or give his human forms claws to attack with.


    Werewolf form would change to be a large sized killer like trapper for example and would attack with claws or if they could make his basic attack animation I bite instead would be cool


    His power would be his trasformation and would get slightly increase speed like 120 and he would get a leap attack to be able to jump over some obsticals like a pallet or maybe a small car or through a window and have him have a stun if he hits any obstical. His passive ability while In beast form could be either getting audio/visual cue when a survivor does a quite vault in his terror radius.


    His power meter would only build up in chase. And if his power it charge if he hits a survivor he will auto transform. I know that's asking for slot but a guy can dream right. Imaging being in chase looking behind you as a survivor and the human killer running behind you and a black smoke starts to surround him and roars and emerges out of the smoke as a fully transformers werewolf.

    PERKS

    Relentless- after hitting a survivor you get haste 1-3 % for 10 seconds and does not stack.

    Challenging- Each time your Obsession enters enters your terror radious their arura is revealed to you for 3 secs. This ability has a 60-90 secound cool down.

    My Prey- Your bloodlust activates 4 secs faster at each stage.

    I want a ice themed character I had the whole idea in my head and it sounds perfect he would be called The Frost.
