Mali flag that gave us as a tip is in reality the carnivals flag! And we will be in carnivals in few days! (Netherlands, Germany...)

Killer said to be the oldest too, perhaps a South American tribal or a shapeshifter!!! Using costumes

Maybe a stalker like Myers to get the appearance of a certain surv but only an attack in killer form

    Could someone post a link for the flag they posted. I've looked through their Instagram and twitter, and came up with nothing new. Thanks in advance.

    I don't even give it a chance, remind me If I am wrong.

    We've got carnival themed clown already. They won't waste an opportunity to introduce a new theme.

    too many coincidences we are in carnival in few days and the Mali flag is also the carnivals'

    the clown wasn't really that much themed carnival~~

    Shapeshifter would be awful, possibility of being worse than freddy and legion

    Wrong! It enables the ultimate fun creating the suspiciousness of "is this surv nearby the killer?" So u don't trust amyone, so cool

    Youre looking in the wrong spot, the devs didnt post it, it was our fog whisperer @PaulieEsther that tweeted it, I'll look for the link and give it to you if I can find it

    Mali relates to name of game files. It was a red herring

    I can't see Canadian devs doing anything related to the carnival celebrations which is not really considered a bigh thing in media. It's even misleading, because in the US carnival means something different and it's the dominant culture in media
    Really just wait and see. There aren't any signs or teases so far and not much to speculate on yet.

    Yes exactly the new chapter will be based on Karneval! The new killer will be a drunken German guy in tiger costume and his weapon is in the form of throwing candy at you!
    Instead of a normal terror radius, this song will play which also doubles as his ability which makes survivors suffer exhaustion triggering the exposed status after 3 minutes!

    but it would be against swf they just need to play a 4 different survivors and do call outs

    player 1. "hay is the meg approching me you."

    player 2 "no"

    player 1. "ok" runs away

    It's definately not going to be a shapeshifter or carnival themed, and it's very likely not gonna be related to Mali whatsoever.

    Swf can counter this by simply by asking your friends, are you near by

    Swf aren't going to be together all the time or comnunicating, and most of matches aren't swf

    Shapshifter power is not only the surv costume, but sabotaging gens, hide in lockers for ambush attack, stealing items from chests, etc is the opposite of the surv's actions

    You're right about the first part, but the second is just wrong.

    Inb4 it's not a shape shifting killer.

    can you guys also stop asking for a shape shifter , that idea sucks.

    I agree. SWF would curb stomp such a killer.

    Doesn't SWF curb stomp most killers anyway?

    It does but against a shapeshifter it would outright nullify it's power.

    Unless Bond and other aura perks are going to trick you and highlight the killer in yellow, the concept would end tragically. still would love the idea tho :chuffed:
