Multiple Killer Mode

Will there ever be a mode where there can two or more killers in one game? I think it would be fun. 
Would anyone else like to see a mode like this come to DBD in the future?

    It would be, but the only way to trim a bit would be if killers didn't share HUD information.

    Example of what I mean:

    I am playing Doc. Full toxic Loadout: Distressing, Unnerving, Ruin, and Overcharge with Calm add ons.

    My partner is playing Nurse.

    Imagine if that nurse could see the insanity icons the doctor gives. There'd be no escaping no matter how many survivors are playing if the Nurse is any good.

    Don't get me wrong as a Killer main I'd love to be able to team up with a partner, I just dunno how they'd tweak it without making killers even weaker to compensate.

    Maybe they could increase the number of survivors as well up to around 8 instead of 4 to try to balance the game and could make maps twice as big. Of course this is just an idea. Nonetheless, it is fun discussing.

    Like have 2 games going at the same time.so like say I Wiff vs my survivors and none die after going thou the gates it would connect thou a larger map with other objectives.(killers have to use a side door as they can’t pass the exit gate to give them some time)and say
    Vortex as is my partner he kills 3 and one escapes map 1 that would make map 2 have 5 survivors trying to get out =p
    Also give survivors double bp if say some of mine get into map 1 and finish the other teams gens and still escape.
    Idk lol

    I think that would be a really awesome game mode to see 2 killers. Would probably be a lot of work to actually pull that off for BHVR though.

    Also should say perks only effect your team so say I run ruin and no one cleanses it only my team is effected
    If not I’d see dying light being a staple for both lol and double thanatophobia lol
    Thou tracking perks probably are ok

    It be more like both teams would be on just one huge map (I would hope anyways) that is 2 or 3 times the size of your average big map rather then having two separate maps. And if both killers were using Hex: Ruin, then there would be two totems that would have to be cleansed instead of just one totem and the same would go with any other Hex perks. And survivors and killers would both get double the blood points (always.) At least this is how I would hope it would work out if this became a actual mode and would hope it would also be available in regular game play and not just in KYF/SWF. I know it would be a lot for devs to actually work on making a mode where there is multiple killers but I think it would be possible.

    Yes, 2 Nurses in one game would be just an absolute blast for survivor mains  :|  And let's not forget the joy of having a trapper and a hag in the same game. Smh

    You'd have extra teammates though? Larger swf partys as well...

    I don't know anything about technology. I'm at about the level of an old guy lmao. Would it even be possible once we got dedicated servers?
