What Character(s) Would You Love To See Added To DBD?
Since DBD is focusing on adding many horror icons, there are an infinite number of possibilities for having characters added into DBD, rather it be unique Killers or Survivors, or cosmetic replaces similar to that of Chris Redfield's inclusion into the game.
I think it goes without saying that James A. Janisse should 100% be added to the game (in my opinion).
For those who are not aware, James A. Janisse runs a YouTube channel called "Dead Meat" which produces content known as "The Kill Count" in which they examine the amount of people who died in horror films (both indie and mainstream).
They were also involved in the production of Scream (2022) playing as the "Film Fails" channel and parodying themselves to an extent.
With such vast influence, Im surprised they havent been added sooner.
But what about yall, what do you want added to DBD?

Unironically, adding Part 1 Dio and Speedwagon.
Dio's got plenty of ability, he's got voicelines galor, he's a massive troll and he's extremely recognizable.

This will never happen, but The Protagonist or The Wolfman from Darkwood would be cool additions. Darkwood is my favorite horror game ever made and honestly, I wish it got more attention.
1 -
i cant get through darkwood and i have tried so many times, the artstyle and sound design makes it so scary
1 -
As I've said in other threads, I want to branch out to more video game properties. My top picks are Alan Wake and Frank West for survivors. They don't come with good killers but they have good material for new maps as well, as unprecedented as it would be to have a survivor + map only chapter.
0 -
Terminator, Tomb Raider, John Wick, gigantic shark/megalodon,
The Butcher (Diablo), Sebastian Castellanos (The Evil Within), Venom
0 -
the only licenced character im dying for.
2 -
A fatal frame chapter would draw me back in. Especially if it's based off of the latest one.
0 -
That's precisely why I love darkwood, it's horror doesn't rely on cheap tricks or jumpscares, but it's built up using the atmosphere, artsyle, sound design and general creepiness of the enemy designs. You're always thinking about what could be lurking beyond your view, with all those screams and roars it could anything.
I get not being able to get through it though, I myself couldn't get through it when I first started playing. The game can be downright terrifying sometimes, especially at night. I had to watch markiplier's entire playthrough of it before I got the guts to finish it lol.

Sam and dean winchester
would be a dream chapter especially if they got Jared and Jensen to do the voice acting
0 -
Played through the first night, wolf dude appeared in the house and i allmost quit, dude was friendly tho xd
1 -
Ummm. I think you answered the topic. 🤣
Bagul would be awesome. Love sinister all around
Tallman would be interesting for sure. Would love to see how they incorporate his sentinel spheres
Pumpkinhead would be amazing. Totally 80s in my mind
The Klowne would be funny love to see some cotton Candy stuff
the thing would take some real thought on behaviors part but it would be worth the effort
I would love to see Elvira as a survivor.
0 -
I want to see skull merchant un-added from DBD.
3 -
Jason is obvious just to complete the horror icons really sure he will make it but would almost certainly be an anniversary chapter.
Stranger things chapter 2 with vecna, robin & hopper would be my bet for next years anniversary.
Candy man will probably get in (underwhelming for me personally & I'm an 80's kid grew up with all the horror icons)
Pennywise I just cant see King ever doing a deal.
Honestly now I have Chucky I couldn't really care less what licenses they get. (Okay I want scream queens because well emma roberts & all those outfits!)
Werewolf & dracula are really the only other things i'd love to see but neither need be licensed obviously, quite happy to see where they go & hopefully others will get their most wanted regardless of my opinion.
0 -
Stranger Things - Vecna & Robin, Joyce, Hopper, Eddie (pick two as legendaries)
It - Pennywise
The Shining - Jack & Wendy Torrance
Misery - Annie Wilkes & Paul Sheldon (although Annie on her own would be enough I think)
I could list a bunch of other Stephen King books but I don't think any of his works are coming to the game tbh
Trick R' Treat - Sam

I know it's not horror and I don't know how it would work but a Hollow Knight skin for someone would make me really happy.

I always imagined the sentinels to be a trap based mechanic that once a Survivor has entered it's line of sight, killer instinct would emit from it and you would switch your POV over to it, where you then would gain control of it in a similar way you would with Pinhead's chain.
Successful hit with it puts Survivors in deep wound which they can't mend until they've removed the Sentinel that's hit them.
Of course, i also imagine that you could switch between The Tall Man's Lurkers and his Sentinels through add-ons, similar to Freddy's dream pool and pallets.

Well, I got Alien with Ripley and Xenomorph - so I am kinda happy right now and don’t need other licenses.
though i would still be happy to see these:
- Sidney Prescott (with some Woodsboro map, high school, or possibly Haddonfield/Springwood-like with Sidney’s house and Casey’s house?
- Amanda Ripley with a Sevastopol map
- Wendigo from Until Dawn with Sam as survivor
- Hannibal Lecter with either Will Graham and/or Clarice Starling as survivor/s
- The Blair Witch (make her model kind of like Dredges void so you don’t have to directly see ‚her‘ but a shadowy mysterious human shaped like Darkness?)
- Candyman
- Fisherman/Ben Willis from I Know What You Did Last Summer with Helen as survivor (just think about her cosmetics!!!)
- Jason just to complete the iconic slashers - hopefully with a Camp Crystal Lake map
- The Walking Dead - killers could be Negan, Governor, Alpha, Beta (one as main others as Legendarys) and incorporate Biters like Nemesis and there is so many survivor possibilities I can’t list them all
0 -

- Lara Croft
- Sidney Prescott
- The Thing

I could see a trickster skin with dio for the knifes.
Dont think Dio have a chance but would be awesome.

I'd love to see characters from scream or a supermassive game. Also another stranger things chapter, I'm not too fussed about which characters, I'd just love to see more of the cast/more content.

Dunno if you've seen this, but James was actually asked yersterday about the idea of him and Chelsea being added as Survivors in DBD.

Yeah another Silent Hill chapter would be nice.
and also Bioshock 😉
Big Sister as killer + Rapture as map
Idk who the survivor could be?
1 -
That one guy who gets killed outside the bathysphere at the start of Bioshock 1 when you first arrive in Rapture.
Alternatively, Tanenbaum or Sinclair.
1 -
But what about the killer it's not like it's my favorite series,I did enjoy the game.
Bioshock has been in a uproar apparently there is a movie or a tv series coming and new game in the works
Speaking of Silent Hill has some movies on the way but I just thought about a TV series would be good as well 😄
0 -
Scooby doo 😂 Velma and shaggy as survivors and luna clown from the first live action movie as the killer.
1 -
So long as Konami have as little to do with the tv series as possible and the writers come up with an fresh take which avoids "winks" to old games in a very unsubtle way, I'd quite like a Silent Hill tv series!

A big daddy from bioshock.

Candyman and Art The Clown

Scissorman and Jennifer from Clocktower, bonus points for a Barrows Manor map
Always makes me glad when i come into one of these topics and someone beat me to it :)

I just recently finished the Evil Within games, so I'd love to see good ol' Detective Castellanos make it into the Fog. I'd rather see an associated killer be pulled from the first game, despite the second one being superior in every way; largely because I think our good friend Box Man is a cooler killer design than most of the stuff from the second game, and if they could make Laura work I'd be there day one. I'd sell my belongings to get that killer.
(Plus, Nurse Tatiana legendary skin, please...)
Perhaps controversial, but I would like to see a third RE chapter bring in Jack Baker. However, I don't want it now, I think they should wait a while to give RE/DBD some breathing room as a concept.
Way more niche and survivor-only, but I'd adore seeing John Constantine in this game, but only if they can get the old Vertigo version. The new version does less for me personally, and in my opinion, is also less fitting for DBD in general.
Not a full character, but I want a Punchline (DC) skin for Legion. One part that being a fitting concept, one part... my girlfriend really likes Punchline and would actually play this game with me if she were added lol. Might as well throw in a Joker skin for Trickster while you're at it.
0 -
Gotta go for Kyle Crane (Dying Light 1) and Jacket (Hotline Miami). Both are really good picks.
0 -
Well honestly Konami isn't really the problem, their most likely to stick with the original material, it's the writer's who would concern me.Konami should put the creators of the series to over see the project?.Ito,Usuda,Yamaoka etc.
Konami just makes very questionable decisions,with their IP very very questionable decisions 🧐

The Lost Boys
David aka Kiefer Sutherland as the vampire killer and the 2 Corey's as survivors.
0 -
Ever since the For Honor collab Ive always wanted a character to enter the Fog, mainly one of the 4 Harbingers. Vortiger, (Black Prior) Sakura, (Hitokiri) Hulda, (Jormungandr) Sun Da (Zhanhu)
How ever if theres any character being added its more than likely going to be the big bad herself, Apollyon.
0 -
I'd love to see some classic characters like Elvira and the Crypt Keeper and old school Dracula and the Wolfman.
0 -
1. The Thing
2. The Fly
3. Big Daddy from Bioshock
4. Sweet Tooth from Twisted Metal
Extra : Maybe Robocop or Robocrait from Robocop 2

if the deceiver game mode go through i would love to see the thing added

some of mine:
Kayako as a new killer rest as sikins

The Thing is the only killer i would love to see. Jason and Pennywise would be nice too.
But tbh at this point i rather see more original content. Many of my favourite killers are original (Dredge, Oni or Singularity) and i like being surprised by what BHVR can create. Also, original characters are more likely to get new cosmetics you can unlock for free :)
So focusing on BHVR-made stuff, i'd like to see that spider from the archives (tbh i dont mind if it's the humanoid one or the giant spider), the vampire or even Frank Stone (i think he is the killer?)
