Chapter 28: More Than Just a New Killer
The “End Transmission” Chapter Deep Dive
The release of Chapter 28, often referred to as “End Transmission,” brought a unique blend of horror and sci-fi elements to Dead by Daylight. The Singularity, also known as Huxley, is not a typical monster. He is a biomechanical abomination that can deploy Biopods to survey the environment and teleport to them for quick chases, making for a terrifying and fast-paced experience for Survivors. He has the ability to create slipstreams, which affect the survivors if they get hit by his Biopods.
The accompanying survivor, Gabriel Soma, adds a new layer of depth with his own story and unique perks that contribute to the survivor gameplay and challenges.
