Dead by Daylight has some new terrifying content. Sadako (the Onryō) and Yoichi Asakawa are now available on live servers. You can use them by purchasing the Sadako Rising DLC.
New Content
Sadako works similarly to her movie counterpart. She uses TVs scattered all over the map to manifest in the real world and kill the survivors. Once she emerges, any nearby survivor will get Condemned stacks. After the meter is filled up, any downed survivor can be killed instantly. Survivors can somehow halt her projection by retrieving tapes from TVs, but in doing so, they will gain Condemned stacks. If you play as a survivor, do keep this in mind.
Yoichi Asakawa’s career started when two of his students suddenly disappeared after doing some research in Izu Oshima - the place where Sadako was born. Yoichi is pretty good at helping his teammates. His Empathic Connection, for example, makes his aura visible to his teammates from a distance when they’re injured. This also allows him to heal other survivors faster.
Sadako, Yoichi, and the Cursed Videotape (exclusive universal charm) are available when you purchase the Sadako Rising DLC.
