What out-there licensed chapter would you want to see?

This is for licenses that have next to no chance of actually being added, but something you personally really want anyway. Doesn’t matter if they are too silly or would be impossible to implement.

I unironically think they should add the gang from Scooby Doo as survivors even if they are just skins. They’re all so iconic and the voicelines would be hilarious. I’ve also really wanted a killer from a Stephen King property. Pennywise is everyone’s go to pick and I would love to see him too, but personally I want to see Carrie or Jack from the Shining more. The Overlook hotel would be the perfect map for this game.

    Castlevania and Outlast.

    For survivor only chapter, if we get any: Sidney Prescott.

    Tormented Souls

    Caroline Walker as the Survivor

    Slasher as the Killer

    I don't see this happening unfortunately as Tormented Souls seems too niche

    Disney just lost the copyright rights to Micky Mouse. Maybe we can see a more where he shoves a mouskitool down someone's throat, lol.

    A phyrexian from MTG would be a very plesant surprise for us. They make the coolest death zombie machines we've seen in a long while.

    the first incarnation of mickey mouse. I'm afraid they didn't lose the rights to their single most recognisable character quite yet.

    That said, it would be very out there to have the Mouse running around the trials.

    Power Rangers. Rita is the killer with Lord Zedd legendary cosmetic. Kimberly and Tommy as survivors.

    Scooby Doo, not necessarily a chapter but..

    Victor gets a Scrappy Doo onesie.

    Claudette = Velma

    Kate = Daphne

    Leon=Scooby

    David = Fred

    Ace=Shaggy

    I actually said the scooby gang for a licence I wanted a while back. For me I would like The Outsider from Stephen King's book The Outsider. His power is very unrealistic for the game but the idea of being able to shape shift into survivors to sneak up and keep on their toes really appeals to me.

    The Magnus Archives:

    Jonathan Sims & Martin Blackwood as Survivors; Nikola Orsinov (The Stranger) as the Killer

    Silent Hill 4: The Room:

    Henry Townsend & Eileen Galvin as Survivors; Walter Sullivan (The Abandoned) as the Killer

    Neighbours:

    Elly Conway as Survivor; Finn Kelly (The Teacher) as the Killer

    Haunting Grounds:

    Fiona Belli as Survivor; Daniella (The Maid) as the Killer

    Ghostbusters:

    Peter Venkman/ Raymond Stantz/ Egon Spengler/ Winston Zeddemore as Survivor (interchangeable, like Legion); Gozer (The Gozerian) as Killer

    Everything Everything:

    Jonathan Higgs/ Jeremy Pritchard/ Michael Spearman/ Alex Robertshaw as Survivor (interchangeable, like Legion); Fatberg (The Arch-Enemy) as Killer


    I hopefully await to be proven wrong.

    The Thing

    While it is one of the most iconic horror movies. And it’d probably make lots of memes about the killer. But SWF exists so I doubt this will ever become a chapter.

    Some cult classic horror movies like Phantasm, Pumpkinhead, Re-Animator, Puppet Master, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Wishmaster & Maniac Cop would be great to have in dbd.

    -

    Just a reminder that The Thing, Outlast, Castlevania & Ghostbusters was mentioned in last year's license survey, so they do still have their chances of being added, especially Outlast as one of the devs during one of their Outlast Trial streams told people to ask bhvr for a collab with Outlast when asked about it.

    Deadly Premonition, AKA Bootleg Japanese Twin Peaks. Which would be really funny now that Alan Wake is in the game because Alan Wake is Bootleg Finnish Twin Peaks. May as well throw in the actual Twin Peaks while we're at it and we'd have the complete trio.

    I would also love Scooby-Doo skins for the original four survivors. Dwight as Fred, Meg as Daphne, Claudette as Velma, and Jake as Shaggy. Complete with a little charm of Scooby-Doo they can wear. That would be perfect.

    If you want to get really REALLY out-there? The original Alone in the Dark games, add Edward Carnby as a survivor. A 1920s private detective would be a pretty distinctive character for the roster.

    Alternatively, add Patrick Galloway from Clive Barker's Undying as a survivor. Irish WWI veteran and occult investigator.

    It would blow my mind if they added a character from Siren. It's unlikely but it would be unbelievable to have both Silent Hill and Siren in the same game.

    TBH considering Sony is the publisher, i don't hold much hope for it to be added, just like how i don't hold much hope for Until Dawn to be added because that too is under Sony's say so.

    True, but what I hear most when I go posting about it is, this would be fun chapter but SWF would make the killer useless. Seeing Warhammer 40k made me think of good skins.

    For survivor: Cassie Hack or Juliet Starling

    For Killer: Elesh Norn or Pumpkinhead

    While you cannot eliminate SWF on comms, you can try and work around it by making it harder for them to tell & know who they can trust.

    Few examples of this could be done by hiding hud elements normally available for Survivors, making assimilation infection something that has a chance of happening when harming Survivors which they won't know has happened to them until they eventually turn into Survivor-Things that can assist the killer, having the Thing be able to see other Survivors while mimicked or having decoy A.I Survivor-Things roam the map for a limited time that will approach other Survivors whenever an actual Survivor sees one of their teammates.

    There are also different forms that the Thing could potentially take as some kind of Form Shifting ability, giving it the looks of the different Things from the movie, along with new powers for a limited time.

    • Five Nights at Freddy's - Springtrap as killer and a map from the original games (pizzeria or Fazbear's Fright) would go so hard
    • Cindy and Brenda from the Scary Movie film series - these 2 are iconic and loved by many. Many people want them in DBD, too.
    • Fortnite - I would LOVE for this collab to happen inside both games. I would absolutely love DBD characters in Fortnite, and I would love some iconic Fortnite characters as survivors, or at leasts skins. 😍

    Well now that we have a 3rd person Killer in Chucky. I'm going to reach for the stars and say Puppet Master! :D


    It could be like a 3-4 in 1 Killer. Swap between the different Puppets throughout the match with each of them having a different minor ability!

    Lady Dimitrescu.

    Her killer power, Dragon's Claw, is an extended lunge attack (with retractable claws) over pallets and windows using a rock/paper/scissors interaction with the survivor. (While charging the extended lunge, the killer determines whether to swing ahead and down, to the right, or to the left. All 3 will hit a survivor that has made no distance after vaulting; otheriwse, only the input matching the direction the survivor ran will hit.)

    After putting the obsession into the dying state, she can choose to summon her daughters to hook the obsession for her. They whisk the survivor away to the basement and hook them there. This ability goes on cooldown after the obsession is unhooked or the killer changes the obsession.

    ---- Perks:

    Filthy Wretches - Survivors succeeding a great skill check while repairing grants you a token, up to 10. Whenever you put a survivor into the dying state with a basic attack, all generators at least 40/36/32 meters away explode and instantly lose 2% of progress per token. All tokens are spent in the process.

    Hex: Manthing - Chasing non-obsession survivors applies oblivious to the obsession. Injuring a non-obsession reduces the obsession's repair speed briefly. Putting a non-obsession into the dying state makes the obsession scream and reveal their position. When this hex is cleansed, the obsession is exposed for 40/50/60 seconds.

    Limb from Limb - Injured survivors who fall from a great height suffer from the mangled and haemorrhage status effects and produce louder grunts of pain for 40/50/60 seconds.

    The Banana Splits Horror Movie because it would send FNAF fans into a frenzy.

    Edit: I'd also take Willy's Wonderland.

    The Grudge with Kayako Saeki as a Killer. Seems unlikely because it'd be a bit too similar to Sadako, but would be a terrifying addition for sure.

    I will continue preaching about this until it happens or I drop dead

    I'd kill for literally any Monster Hunter representation but there is no way you can convince me that Malzeno wouldn't be the most badass chapter we have ever gotten

    The only liscence(s) I'd want to see in DBD are a Evil Within chapter with the Keeper as a killer and Castellanos (I don't remember how to spell his name so don't judge me if I mispelled it) as a survivor.

    Outside of that I think it'd be cool if they could somehow manage to get the Lickers from the Resident Evil games into DBD.
