    I think Vittorio will be very popular. As for the Knight - I dont really know. Depends if and what they have changed from PTB, if he is roughly the same, he will not be very popular, because he will be quite boring to play.

    If he has more focus on his patrol and way less on his Anti-Loop, he might be more popular. But in the end, we have so many Killers in the game, you will see almost all of them on a less than regular basis.

    Vittorio is going to be very popular, I can see many great skins coming out for him.

    I see Vittorio being popular but not the Knight

    Vittorio- cause he already has fans...

    Knight- cause if it depends on changes then it's a no go

    I can see Vittorio being quite popular, his design is very cool and unique for a survivor.

    I think Knight will go either way, depending on the changes he receives from PTB. Either he'll be super easy to play by stacking 2v1 during chases, and he will be popular.

    Or he'll be more of a set-up and map management killer, in which case he'll quickly fall down from grace and be quite unpopular.

    The survivors are, honestly, never that popular. I haven't seen a Haddie or a Jonah in ages, and I've completely forgotten the Ring survivor's name I haven't seen him in so long.

    As for the killer... I haven't seen nearly as many "Killer too weak/strong, plz fix" posts compared to literally any killer, so probably not that popular or people would be complaining more.

    I don't think the survivor will be very popular. the most popular survivors are mostly female. And as for males it is usually the free ones. Felix also is appealing but I almost never see Felix in my games.


    As for killer we will see. I think he has the potential to be a draw for people who like knights and stuff.

    Vittorio is gonna be picked a lot because he looks cool, and because the community has an obsession with his alleged handsomeness. And also because he's one of the more defiant-looking survivors, as opposed to scared (of the killer) which survivors are supposed to be, so that's another factor.

    Knight is gonna be a very unpopular pick because of how weak he is, but also because he's "Exactly like Artist who's boring" I hear.

    As for the Knight. Depends on how they are gonna change him from PTB. Hopefully we will see him more then annoying Wesker, can’t stand to go against this Killer!

    Like everyone else has said, Vit seems like he'll be popular.

    Knight depends one what is or isn't changed though even if he's buffed, I feel like he might share a similar fate as Artist. Strong but not played all that much.

    Vittorio will definitely popular since he looks pretty cool and has a lot of potential for great cosmetics.

    Knight will probably be very unpopular since he's kinda weak and "just a worse version of Artist" (according to some people). His design is very cool, but if he's the same as the PTB he'll be one of the fewest picked killers.

    I think Vittorio is definitely going to be very popular because he is a hawt daddy

    Knight seems dependent on if they receive changes to make them more balanced

    I think Vittorio will be fairly popular.

    Knight, well, it depends if he gets any changes from the PTB. He’s pretty boring in his current state.

    I'm planning on buying the DLC but I'm not sure Knight will be that popular. Certainly not on Wesker level. Vittorio will be very popular though.

    I'm pretty sure Vittorio will be popular, had a good reception, plus being an original character he will get many Outfits (if popular).

    The Knight has his charm, but if the overall opinion is that he is on the weaker end and not changed from PT, then it will be played by specific players and probable not seen much. He could get pretty cool skins tho.


    Imo obviously.

    I think Vittorio will be popular for a bit but quickly fade. People will go back to their mains they have all the items and whatever on for the most part. That's how it's been for ages and I don't see it changing with Vittorio.

    The Knight is pretty mid tier with a pretty bland anti loop. You'll see one every once in a blue moon after the first few days to a week but not much more after that. Of course their tome is coming out pretty soon after their chapter drops so that might skew their appearances for awhile.

    So I see people saying that it does depend on how the PTB goes... which is what I have feared
