Goddamn it Dead By Daylight, could you really spoil us anymore? Not only did you give us the slasher icon Michael Myers as a playable character, but you’re now giving us another hugely popular horror star in the form of war veteran William “Bill” Overbeck from the classic zombie game series Left 4 Dead. He served for two terms in Vietnam and has put countless zombies in the ground, so he’s not someone you want to fuck with.

The DLC pack in which he appears is titled Left Behind and can be purchased for free on Steam. We probably won’t be getting Left 4 Dead III anytime some, but I guess this is the next best thing.

UP AND AT ‘EM, SOLDIER. TIME TO MOVE!
Put on that comfy beret and green combat jacket if you wanna fight another day as war veteran Bill Overbeck. You were left for dead, but you woke up. Now you have gotten the only thing you ever wanted: an enemy to fight.

Left Behind is a free add-on for Dead by Daylight and includes 1 survivor + 4 brand new Survivor outfits.

Back to fight another day
It took two tours in Vietnam, a handful of medals, a knee full of shrapnel, and an honorable discharge to get William “Bill” Overbeck to stop fighting. He hated it. After decades spent drifting aimlessly through dead end jobs, Bill went in for a routine surgery and woke up to a plague turning normal people into mindless killing machines. Making his way through rural ghost towns and pitch-black forests, he found other survivors, and together they fled from the infected hordes. In the end, one of them sacrificed himself to ensure their safety. Bill was left for dead…and with a new enemy to fight.

PERKS – Bill Overbeck
Bill is tough as nails and knows how to survive just about anything. He’ll do whatever it takes to help others live to see another day and he’s not afraid to take one for the team.

Left Behind
You’ll get the job done… no matter the cost. If you are the last person remaining in the trial, for each generator that needs to be completed, gain a bonus to repair speed.

Borrowed Time
You get unexpected energy when saving an ally from a hook within the killer’s terror radius. Once per trial when saving an ally, any damage taken that would put you or the unhooked survivor into the dying state is delayed.

Unbreakable
Past battles have taught you a thing or two about survival. Grants the ability to fully recover from the dying state once per trial. Increases dying recovery speed.

The LEFT BEHIND Paragraph also include 4 new outfits for the Survivors inspired by the Left 4 Dead series.
