Freddy Krueger's Gameplay
While it looks as though PC players will be the first ones to play as Freddy Krueger ahead of those on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, the trailer doesn't lend much information about his in-game abilities.
The Killer's in Dead by Daylight typically have a basic melee attack as well as a special power that differentiates them from other characters. The Trapper uses bear traps, Michael Myers has special stalking abilities, and Leatherface obviously uses his chainsaw, but how Freddy Krueger's power will be implemented might be a tricky one.
Dead by Daylight has a pretty straightforward gameplay for Killers that consists of chasing down Survivors, injuring them, and throwing them on a hook, but Freddy Krueger specializes in isolating his victims and playing off their fears. Freddy Krueger might utilize some sort of Dream World technique to cause hallucinations like another Killer, The Doctor, but it should be interesting to see how it's implemented. His perks have also yet to be revealed at this time.
