Castlevania’s Dracula and Trevor Belmont are set to make their debut in Dead by Daylight, with Dracula as a Killer and Trevor as a Survivor. Dracula’s unique ability to shapeshift into vampire, wolf, and bat forms will make him a formidable opponent in the Fog. Trevor, on the other hand, will bring his vampire hunting abilities to aid the fight against Dracula.
Dracula’s three forms each offer a different set of skills to combat Survivors. His vampire form allows him to summon fire to burn Survivors, while his bat form enables him to move fast and quietly while flying. His wolf form provides the ability to track Survivors by scent, making him a versatile and dangerous Killer in action.
The addition of Castlevania characters to Dead by Daylight follows a trend of high-profile collaborations between the game and other popular gaming franchises. Previous crossovers include Alan Wake, Lara Croft, and Dungeons & Dragons characters. The upcoming release of a Five Nights at Freddy’s crossover in 2025 further demonstrates the game’s commitment to partnering with diverse franchises.
The inclusion of Castlevania in Dead by Daylight marks a significant achievement, as Konami is known for being protective of the franchise. Despite recent collaborations with other games, the novelty of seeing Castlevania characters in new video games remains high. Thematically, the addition of Dracula as a Killer makes sense, as he is one of the horror genre’s iconic figures.
Trevor Belmont and Dracula are expected to debut in Dead by Daylight on August 27, 2024. Leading up to the release, more details about Trevor’s abilities and what to expect from the collaboration are anticipated. The addition of these two characters is sure to bring a new level of excitement and challenge to the game.
