Clive Barker’s iconic 80s horror hit Hellraiser and its pinheaded antagonist will be joining Dead by Daylight as a new killer. Canadian developer Behaviour Interactive confirmed the news just a day after announcing the release’s Stranger Things content would be leaving storefronts in November, and has since added the Cenobite to public test servers.
The killer sounds complicated to operate – in truth, we’re still trying to wrap our head around some of the descriptions of his powers – but as in the movies it sounds like he’s able to use his chains to inhibit survivors. There’s no word on a firm release date just yet – although a press release does mention September – but this is arguably one of the few remaining villains missing from the game.
Who can they possibly add next – aside from Naughty Bear, of course?

I hope they get Chucky from Child's Play, just to see how they try to pull it off.
Other characters I'd love to see are Jason now the Friday the 13th game is dead. A 5 nights at Freddy's character could be really cool. Candyman could be a cool one.
And one that's completely left field but I think would be awesome is Eddie the Head, the Iron Maiden mascot.
His kit looks interesting...maybe a bit weak, but not so much that he wouldn't be fun or powerful. I'm getting Clown vibes from how I think you're meant to use it, maybe a little Nurse.
Having the box spawn in, with hooks harassing survivors sounds like it might be a little annoying to deal with, but with the amount of times half my gens get popped in the first 2 mins of the match it might be better to just ignore it. Unless you are facing off against uncoordinated survivors.
The added information from survivor screams and being able to teleport is what makes my hopeful about his kit.
His perks look really cool. I think Scortched Hooks in particular is going to be an awesome new mechanic. I can see myself running Agitation or something similar to capitalize on that.
What’s your pleasure Mr Cotton?
Have they had Leatherface and Candyman? Seems like they’d be obvious inclusions.
@HUMPERDOO Leatherface yes but no Candyman but with a movie out soon it might be possible.
@AdamNovice Oh yeah, I forgot there's a remake in-bound. Dues seem like an obvious marketing tie-in.
I wonder if his survivor nemesis will be kirsty cotton fingers crossed
