Who do you think will be the Killer in the Supermassive game?
Supermassive Games always stars one group of survivors and one or two supernatural antagonists. We know that the survivor group will be original to the game, meaning that the antagonist(s) will be selected from this game. So, who do you think is most likely to be the bad guy?
If I had to predict, I think the most to least likely killers to be the antagonist are:
Trapper: He's big, menacing, and scary. Moreover, he's the face of the game. There's literally no better option.
Doctor: He's terrifying, his laugh is creepy, and his design would fit a hospital (or similar) theme. Additionally, his madness could translate into some really interesting gameplay elements and moments, like visions.
Hag: Jumpscare material and would fit really well into a cult setting.
Dredge: Weird design that would open the door for interesting moments, also fitting for a setting where people worshipped The Entity.
Killers that I think WON'T be featured in the game:
Licensed killers for obvious reasons.
Wraith: Not scary at all, just a skinny guy with a magic bell.
Hillbilly: I'm guessing they aren't trying to be a TCM copy.
Nurse: She'd be interesting, but her teleport wouldn't be exciting to see; she could kill anyone in seconds.
Blight: Has a lot of lore, but it would be impossible to take him seriously and be scared when he's just bouncing everywhere.
What are your predictions before the reveal tomorrow?

My prediction is multiple, and trapper will appear somewhere for sure
who else they include depends on the narrative and setting of the game

A new killer and new survivors that’ll eventually make their way into Dead by Daylight

Yeah , this. I am sure team will add some fan-service characters with flashbacks but that's all. Main focus should be new characters.
And maybe they can come to DbD later, who knows.

Supermassive Games use real actors for the faces of their characters, like Rami Malek in Until Dawn. I'm not sure if BHVR would add the same character with the same actor's face straight to the game, but who knows

After we got Nicolas Cage and Brad Dourif ( Chucky ) , i am sure they can handle another actor.

Would be cool if we got some new skins from this. Imagine getting a skin further wendigo from until dawn on Hag or something.

If any Killers do appear, my guess is that they will be fan-service, rather than the main antagonist.
It's a game of people within the same universe, yet not within the trials. Whilst some Killers have made guest appearances outside, I feel the big bad will be something completely new.
As for those little cameos, I'd say the poster boy Trapper has to be referenced at some point.

I could see him being on a newspaper clipping or something

Better be either an original killer or Trapper.

I would say Dredge is the most fitting for a horror game.

If they don’t make their own character, my guess is poster boy Trapper or the entity’s favourite muscleman Oni.
