As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, Springtrap from the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” franchise had not been introduced as a character in the “Dead by Daylight” video game. However, it’s possible that developments have occurred since then.
If Springtrap has indeed been added to “Dead by Daylight,” here are five details you might expect to find about his inclusion:
- Character Backstory: Springtrap, also known as William Afton, is a central character in the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” series. He is the main antagonist of the third game and is the decomposed animatronic suit possessed by Afton himself. His backstory might be explored further in “Dead by Daylight,” possibly through in-game lore or cinematics.
- Survivor or Killer Role: Springtrap could be introduced as either a Survivor or a Killer in “Dead by Daylight.” If he is a Killer, his unique abilities and playstyle might be based on his ability to set traps or utilize the animatronic suit’s mechanics to hunt down Survivors. If he is a Survivor, his unique perks and backstory could tie into his experiences from the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” series.
- Map and Aesthetics: If a map is introduced along with Springtrap, it could be inspired by a location from the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” universe, such as Fazbear’s Fright: The Horror Attraction. The map’s design and aesthetics might include references to the series, capturing the eerie and unsettling atmosphere of the original game.
- Unique Abilities: Springtrap’s unique abilities might involve elements like stealth, surveillance, and trap setting. Given his animatronic nature, he could have the ability to move quickly through vents or tight spaces, making him a formidable and unpredictable opponent for Survivors.
- Crossover Cosmetics and Items: In addition to Springtrap himself, “Dead by Daylight” often introduces cosmetic items and outfits that pay homage to the characters’ original franchises. Players might expect to see various skins, outfits, and items inspired by the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” series for both Springtrap and other characters.
Please note that the above details are speculative and based on the premise of Springtrap being added to “Dead by Daylight.” For the most accurate and up-to-date information, I recommend checking official sources related to the game’s announcements and updates.
