If you're wondering, there is a secret easter egg on the new map where is a survivor walks near a window in the broken ship the lights flicker and a face hugger launches itself at the window before running off.
@@maurodiaz8989 I'm fine with it, adding facehuggers plus everything we already have with the power would be VERY overwhelming, facehuggers could be an entire other killer power
Bro I’m so glad they didn’t just do their same thing of seeing how much Gen stalling they could give a killer. His tunnels are literally the coolest thing in this game I’ve ever seen, I never even realized how much killers needed powers like that where they actually do the teleportation and stuff themself.
Something that manual TP gives you is the ability to swap your TP mid travel when you see auras. If you start heading to one and see auras at a different one you can just go to that one
Like in the game Alien Isolation, The alien needs to manually traverse into tunnels connecting inside the ship to hunt the protagonist. Also I love the new tunnel traversing
Somewhere around the map there’s a dead astronaut with a keycard. It appears as a Medkit symbol. Pick it up and enter ship. Near the area where the android is there should be a little area with a closed off room and a control panel next to it. Insert the keycard and it unlocks a special hidden room.
I think his entrance animation in the lobby is a reference to Alien: Isolation. He performs the same movement when you run into him in the medical area, and he crawls out of the vent.
The underground "teleportation" is what they were trying to do for demo but at the time proved too hard to do in the time they had if I remember correctly
Same with Wesker. Nemesis was intended to grab survivors and toss them, like in RE3Remake…. But instead Wesker got that ability (programming oversight)
I imagine it’d be extra difficult to make work with Demo anyway given his ability to place traps down wherever he wants instead of them spawning in set locations already upon loading the map.
Learning that Xenomorph's tail can drag and flick like Nemesis' tentacle opens a wide window of oportunities in chases. The length of the attack is also really good. Mix that with Enduring and you may have a free hit each stun.
I love how many references they put into this from, not only the Alien movies, but also Alien Isolation (the game that canonically takes place between Alien 1 and 2) and Alien vs Predator. To name a few that I noticed immediately: 1) The menu drop down animation. It is the exact same animation used in the Alien Isolation game when you first encounter the Xenomorph. 2) The footstep detection add-on. This is also a reference to the game where you, the player, can either traverse the map by Urban evasion, walking or running. Running is fast but loud and will draw enemies (and the Alien) to your location. Urban Evasion allows you to be completely silent while moving, but you are incredibly slow. Walking is a middle ground where it's not loud enough to draw away further away foes to your location BUT if you are standing roughly within 6 meters of an enemy and you walk, it will cause you to be detected by them. 3) The mori is almost shot-for-shot taken from the first Alien vs Predator film. One of the xenomorphs in that movie kills one of the predators via spear through the chest before piercing through the skull with its second mouth.
In alien iso i walked on some metal canistsrs and it attracted the alien. Scared the bez out of me cause i did not know why he kept returning to my room to search.
Visually he looks incredible. They put a lot of love into making him appear film-accurate. Gameplay-wise he seems like a cross between Demo and Nemesis. That tail attack has so much range.
@MBG.426 in the first film there were thousands on the derelict space ship and in a cut seen the xeno was transforming some of the crew into eggs. Plus they don't need to come from eggs them spawning from the tunnels the xeno runs through would make just as much sense
@thisismywill that's just the thing tho the face huggers would be just xenos sentries in a way. The could spawn from his tunnels injure but not down survivors And they would die to sentries which wouldn't make them oppressive just scary and something you have to think about

@@dallaire876there’s always “could haves”. I think overall they did very well. Nothing wrong with asking for better but the community is too quick to shit on the devs and the game
@@EV-qu2lb I hope people like you realize that constant positivity is worse than constant negativity. Without people calling out the choices made the game will grow slower. Nobody is too quick to say anything bad about the game, they are just in time.
Not accurate at all. The headbite is not supposed to go all the way through and kill you, it's supposed to remove specific parts of the brain, leaving you paralyzed for easy facehugging
@@NotPork well for one, the mori is very similar to the predators death in AVP and two, there are no face huggers in the game. So yes it is pretty accurate
@@NotPork The runner in Alien 3 headbites a prisoner after he closed a door and you can literally see his giblets blasting through that door's window. The xenomorph in Alien: Covenant kills a showering man from behind and you can see the inner jaws busting through the guy's mouth. Both predators killed by the grid xenomorph in AvP are killed in similar manners, you can see Chopper's blood hitting the ground near Alexa, and you can see blood blasting from behind Celtic's head as he's killed off. Also, the headbites are purely for dispatching targets lmao, it only paralyzes a guy in Resurrection for a gag before he dies. The only time it happens in the whole series iirc.
It’s entirely accurate. What you said is never once addressed in lore, neither in the mainline stories or in the eu comics/books or games. Adding to that there’s be no feasible way for it to use its pharyngeal jaw on a head bite purely for incapacitating prey. The size and shape paired with cutting teeth are lethal enough. Add to that the force needed to pierce a skull and the force the thing launches at and it would render the prey flat out dead more often than not. If not through hemorrhaging then through the sheer amount of energy transfer liquifying the prey’s brain in its skull. Even if prey miraculously survived the initial blow the risk of them dying from complications afterwards, possibly during or post implantation, is far too high for it not to be a massive risk.. Simply put it would be entirely unfeasible to use a head bite for anything BUT a killing stroke when crippling limbs works far better.
Everyone had been waiting for this and let's agree, Behavior delivered. Balancing issues aside, visually, atmospherically, animations, map... all of it is pretty top-notch. If the killer and perks need balancing that can slowly be worked on with time. Also that tunnel system feels great. I can see lots of people falling in love with that killer.
I suppose they're trying to avoid an exclusively indoor map for the moment like Midwich, since the Nostromo iirc isn't exactly spacious to accommodate good gameplay. Which makes me wish we had a Necromorph Killer with the Sprawl as a map...
@@kingol4801Huh. I figured it was largely narrow hallways connecting to larger chambers, since it inspired things like the Ishimura. Also because being trapped in a five foot wide corridor with a tweaking alien jaguar is scarier than a twelve foot wide maintenance tunnel.
@@KeepItWilde I'm actually surprised they didn't use stuff from Isolation (or even Fireteam Elite), it seems pretty easy to yoink. But the map is still really cool
@@brianhillman5867 shoot predalien would be even better tbh, im just excited for what skins they will put out! Just no prometheus, that junk goofy lookin
@@linc54 that would be dope, or add her in the background as an easter egg. I was really hoping there would be a mori with the facehuggers and chestbursters
I love how they integrated the acid blood, but I'm surprised there's no facehuggers. Coulda been neat to have a mechanic that spawns a stationary queen with an ovipositor that poops eggs you can cart around and place like turrets of your own that'd spawn facehuggers on any survivors that got too close that'd chase them around like a mix between Nemesis' zombies and Victor. It's also pretty neat there's an add-on that essentially gives your tail built-in spoopy butter.
A facehugger would be an insta-kill no ifs, ands or buts about it, but that would make for a unique Basement kill idea... of course Behavior isn't going to do that because Behavior.
It could be a perk where if the alien breaks a gen, the next survivor who will touch it will be jumped by a facehugger and then a few seconds later, it will come out and they will get injured or some other debuff.
I don’t think you’d have to make it insta kill. Could just be an ALT hook stage like pyramid head or something like the pig. Weyland Yutani could provide auto docs to remove infections. Hell they could of even done a stage based killed with xeno a lot of options but this okay.
@@yeetskeet7345 Yes it WOULD have to be an insta kill, you do realize what a Facehugger does when it catches a host CORRECT? Edit: oh, and you CAN'T remove the embryos, they can't be fully cured the ONLY and I mean this literally, ONLY time they were removed and didn't result in a chestburst were in crossover comics which involved other fictional characters like Batman, Superman, etc.
I'm giving them credit for this chapter..it looks like they knew how important the Alien would be. Seems like they put some work into this one 😊 It looks amazing , alien looks really fun to play. I can't wait!!!
I'm more surprised it's real, I swear when I stopped playing the game (and prob still won't till cross-save gets added) they were saying that xenomorph would never be added because of like, technical limitations or smthn, granted I also stopped playing a bit before pinhead was added, so it's been a while, but still
I have a build with waterlogged shoe on hag rn that uses dark devotion and play with your food and I'm very interested in seeing if the new perk will be good with that setup
I LOVE how he can essentially crawl through ‘vents’. It stays true to his depiction in games and the original movie, always crawling under or overhead. But I wonder how it would work on maps like Midwich…
@@textoffender3410 if it only works on the ground floor, that's going to be quite rough. Essentially limiting Xeno to basically being a discount Nemesis
I really like the killer and survivor a lot, but I think the map is my favorite part. It's a nice combo of indoors and outdoors and a ton of fun secrets!
I'm absolutely loving the direction the new killers are taking, being more interactive, Dredge with Lockers, Knight with Guards, Skull Merchant with Drones, Singularity with Biopods, and now Xenomorph with Turrets, regardless of how they translate in-game, it's more fun than going from pallet to pallet and playing mindgames.
Yeah man that's called lack of creativity, it's basically rhe same teleportation that's being used with almost every new killer, and the worst part is that it's a power that 100% of the killer that gets it, it usually turns out to be weak or very hard to use, and when you managed to play good with it, it's not very rewarding like nurse's blink, it's basically a "get close to survivor and then suffer trying to kill him like a m1 killer", at least xeno has that tail attack so that + teleportation might get him to tier A i guess, but still sad, they could make something bigger with him.
I love the way Otz says Xenomorph, This is all so amazing. I'm so damn happy about this, I can't say enough how much joy it brings me, Alien has always been super special to me and i know everyone is gonna be playing alien but i really am just so damn excited to play as it, strange they didn't get Sigourney's likeness for Ripley given in fortnite they did.
When I got the notification I honestly thought it was fake, the fact that the Xenomorph and Ripley are actually here is insane. The amount of love and detail BHVR put into this chapter really shows, I can only imagine how cool it is for a really big Alien fan!
@@xmangle5382 No, it is not. Otzdarva just mispronounced it, that is not at all how it would be pronounced in spanish. Can't say for other romance languages but for spanish at least, you are wrong
@@zaga9602 You are just as wrong as them. The fact that you're referring to the spanish language as if it had a universal pronounciation is already enough to know you have no idea what you're talking about. There are literal dozens of books on how the pronounciation consonants at the beginning of words deviated wildly from country to country. In the case of "Y", as it doubles as a vowel, there's so much of different between regions that the instinctive reading a native speaker of spanish associates with the letter is essentially dependent on upbringing more than anything. Not to mention the whole can of worms of the "S" sound, where it varies from a hard, doubled sound to inaudible. While you're free to argue that the "X" sound in Xenomorph would sound closer to the anglophone "zee" than to the "she" that Otz used if read akin to the most popular pronunciation patterns of the language, it is ridiculous to say that the "se" or "ce" sounds would be a "correct mispronounciation", especially when not accounting for where Otz is from within Spain or for his current life in Andorra. Also, while not relevant here, there are, in fact, regions that speak romance languages where this is the expected phonem deviation associated with this X, especially in South America.
The locker perk seems OP when used on wesker with distressing, basically barbeque but closer distance. It actually can be paired with barbeque for ultimate aura reading. Gotta test it out
Yeah but these survivor perks are going to be pretty insane with good builds too. No sprinting foot steps is huge, pair that with something like lightweight, Dance with me, Calm Spirit, Distortion, etc and you’ve got an awesome stealth build. The trapped pallets is hilarious AND useful. Pair it with blast mine to punish gen kicks and pallet breaks, add in Yui’s perk to pick up pallets and you’ve got some extremely fun META break perks.
@@nathangothan601 i barely see any people who run calm spirit, but i suppose it is one way to do it. They still get blindness so no aura reading if you're still close to the hook, which basically kills kindred or OoO value on solo queue. And beside, with wesker, you can vault pallets with your ability, mostly negating it with the build i proposed. (Yeah i do agree it is fun though, basically blast mine on pallets lol) I do see a problem - if you have something like a shack pallet + Dance with Me, quick and quiet, any means necessary/lithe and chemical trap with a flashlight would be a very interesting build with baiting the killers to break a god pallet or get a quick getaway ( Lithe to get away quickly, any means necessary to fake climbing the pallet and potentially raise it later with a trap on, the choice is yours). You stun them, flashlight blind, fast vault with quick and quiet + dance with me and you basically disappear. If the killer decides to break the pallet thinking you're still nearby and because it's a good pallet to break, they trigger the trap and lose any chance to catch up with you
It can be absolutely good tho if paired with Iron Maiden and Darkness Revealed in any killer who has some relation to lockers, like Trickster or Huntress.
Selecting the station shows you the path to it when you're in the tunnels. I'm guessing that's why you're able to select them outside the tunnels so you can preselect which distant station to path to from whatever other station you use
That's an absolutely beautiful map. Also I am happy that BHVR is making more brutal moris compared to the utter disappointment of mori they gave for Skull Merchant
I personally think the mori is fine. Not anything to write home about. Moris don’t need to have brutal gore or flashy animation. I like they tried just something more cinematic with hers at least. I personally enjoy Skull Merchant though and I understand why others don’t.
Such a cool teleport how you aren’t committed to the one you look at or whatever. No more dredge misclicks. I think this will be fun to play and play against it’s so cool.
2 months before this killer released I had a dream playing as a survivor against him. I had an astronaut suit on and other crew mates as survivors. The alien would travel through sludge and power lines on the dark mucky ground. In the dream he could also clone himself, having two smaller versions to also hunt us down. We were on a spaceship with cold blue colors. Seeing Alien actually be released 2 months later after was so trippy to me. I knew no one would believe me if I said it, plus it's not like something you wouldn't see coming. Aliens is a horror character after all. However, today I decided to actually look at his kit - with tunneling ability that looks almost exactly like how it worked in my dream blows my mind. I feel like someone dug through my head or I saw the future. It's so trippy seeing a dream become a reality. I have no proof, and you don't have to believe this, I just needed to vent it out. Such a coincidence XD
It's an asymmetrical, cat-and-mouse type of game. Personally, it was at its most fun when I knew nothing about how the game works, so maybe as a new player you'll get a good kick out of you first bunch of matches
It seems like they are hinting at predator being the next killer, there's quite a few predator references with this update so mabey we see predator and arnald next, which would be amazing.
@@darth9302 Not sure unfortunately. Lot of people have pointed out that Skull Merchant bears a lot of uncanny resemblances aesthetically to Predator, and there's musings that they tried and failed to get a crossover, and then had to recycle the model into something else.
Unbelievably good design, the map is incredible, what a chapter. You can tell the effort and time that was poured into this. Shows that the singularity chapter was to tide us over while we waited for this release. More than happy for that to be the release philosophy.
Considering how long we have waited for the xenomorph, this feels like well worth the wait. If we get an original killer that's half as cool then DBD is gonna pop off! Hope we get more beasty killers so we hace a category of killers called "the beasty bois"
I've loved Alien since I was around 13/14 years old and now the Xenomorph is getting added to dbd and it makes me happy how they gave the alien's acidic blood it's rarity and ability, an amazing choice! Can't wait to play them!
Rapid brutality and that one singularity perk where you down a survivor and the other ones get hindered could be an absolute nasty combo and even combining that with infectious fright on top of it. You down a survivor and hear the screams of nearby slowed survivors whilst your faster than you are on top of that!
So, so, so looking forward to this! It looks AWESOME! One suggestion (and I know that this is a pipe dream), but it would be awesome some chests or turret pods were randomly booby-trapped by hiding facehuggers. The survivor has a limited time to get the FH removed by another survivor before the FH gets full purchase on their face --> KO via chestburster (much like the Pig's reverse bear trap mechanic).
I feel like Rapid Brutality may or may not become the newest killer meta once Alien goes live since it's basically like the killer version of Made For This while Light-Footed like is Lightweight on steroids so i can also definitely see Light-Footed being used in stealth builds
This killer looks fun, that's the most important part. The survivor/killer interactions seem cool. I don't really like the map too much but the killer looks fun.
This is so badass bro im so interested in the tail attack it seems really strong but not absolutely busted, it seems easier than other attacks to spin or dodge bc it functions as a long distance spear
I don't know if you already know this, but if you "lose your tail" through the fire turret by entering the tunnels and walking in them, the cooldown passes faster
Considering the Alien is now in DBD world , it would be hilarious if the Pig had a skin or add-on that changed the Reverse Bear Traps into the Alien facehuggers. Could still have her skin wearing an Alien dome on her head and going around planting them on survivors faces + change up the removal boxes into crunchy 70s sci-fi machinery that attempts to remove the parasite/'bear-trap'
I didn't saw people talk about this here but there is actualy jonesy the cat on the map when you interact with specific lockers on the map there is a chance that the cat will come out of it, also the pipe thing in the trailer that slow the xenomorph is also on the map as an interactable lever
Bro, this looks like it could DEFINITELY beat Wesker in terms of brand recognizability and fun. The flame turrets are so perfect- I wish every killer had a specific way for the survs to fight back like that.
@@cryguy0000 As a killer main: I disagree. Glorified tag is only fun for so long, I like having more ways to interact with the survivors, which I believe makes the game more fun for them as well.
This does not beat Wesker at all. The power is worse and not as fun to use or play against, the perks are not that interesting on either side (aside from Chemical Trap), and good GODS the chase music for Xeno is fucking terrible. This chapter is already going to be overrated. Nothing has even come close to how good Wesker’s chapter was last year.
@@doompunk64 Bro, emphasis on *could* my guy- everything's still in the PTB, all the stuff you just mentioned (including the chase music which sounds like they might be using Demo's as a placeholder atm) has the *potential* to be better or at least just as good as Wesker's.
@@cksupreme Same thing was said about Singularity. Skull Merchant. Knight. Everyone copes with “but it’s the ptb bruh” as if that’s going to change anything. Either the Killer has a well designed power from the jump or the chapter is gonna be a flop until they rework it a year or two or three later.
I just found my new main... His design, his kit... Everything about this killer is AMAZING. And how lucky that I am absolute fan of everything futuristic. Btw, I think Xeno might be in the bottom of S tier! Like, its killer with GREAT chasing power, like wow, this tail hit is Nemi's tier 3 tentacle, but available from the start, also there is no need to infect somebody, so its not a 3 hits killer (its just unfair to my current main 😂) and great mobility all over the map
@@Kubui10 whats the matter if I thought that the killer is strong, why you making fun of my words? It was my personal opinion, how I felt it after the first impression. If you are tier list addicted guy, well, I have nothing to talk with you about
@@koreancowboy42After playing a decent amount of time on both sides during the PTB, I feel if they decide to change/nerf anything it would probably be an increase to the wind up on the tail attack to make it a little easier to dodge, similar to what they did to Pyramid head a couple years back. I just hope they don’t go overboard and make drastic or unnecessary changes, but I’m not gonna get my hopes up.
@@mj91212 Doesn't really matter in this context that much, it's just a cool alien. Also a couple of Xenomorphs in the past have been male, such as MKX Alien.
Xenemorph is the type of killer you cannot bully It can literally counter any survivor bullies which just makes me happy since I quit the game 12 months ago or even a year because of how toxic survivors were I always wanted Xeno to be in DBD so I will come back for this alien mf
One thing I realized that is that the change from an animation to a physical space is so much better bc I have had some moments where I try and TP to a portal or TV and when they're lined up parallel it makes it hard to choose the specific one and I get sent to the wrong one when I'm moving fast
@@Candidoppnemesis needs to infect before doing damage with his whip and gives the survivor a speed boost when doing so At least the xenomorph tail does damage immediately
We didn’t really see how it worked too well in this but I would really like it if you could see survivors in the tunnels. Like if they’re within 5 metres of you in the runner or something you see their aura and they don’t know you’re there. Obviously you’d have to emerge from a tunnel but I think otherwise the tunnels are not super great, it adds a very good stealth aspect to it
Oh fun fact, the lobby animation where the alien crawls down from the top is the same animation from Alien Isolation. Specifically when we first meet the alien and it crawls down from the vent infront of us.
His teleportation visuals are simply insane! Map is also one of the prettiest ones we've had in a while!

I love how many references they put into this from, not only the Alien movies, but also Alien Isolation (the game that canonically takes place between Alien 1 and 2) and Alien vs Predator.
To name a few that I noticed immediately:
1) The menu drop down animation. It is the exact same animation used in the Alien Isolation game when you first encounter the Xenomorph.
2) The footstep detection add-on. This is also a reference to the game where you, the player, can either traverse the map by Urban evasion, walking or running. Running is fast but loud and will draw enemies (and the Alien) to your location. Urban Evasion allows you to be completely silent while moving, but you are incredibly slow. Walking is a middle ground where it's not loud enough to draw away further away foes to your location BUT if you are standing roughly within 6 meters of an enemy and you walk, it will cause you to be detected by them.
3) The mori is almost shot-for-shot taken from the first Alien vs Predator film. One of the xenomorphs in that movie kills one of the predators via spear through the chest before piercing through the skull with its second mouth.
Also there is the unintended gimmick of “if you get flamed out of your power you run to the vents in order to recover it”

But those are my only complaints
@@dallaire876there’s always “could haves”. I think overall they did very well. Nothing wrong with asking for better but the community is too quick to shit on the devs and the game

@@EV-qu2lbyeah basically, but asking the community not to bitch about the game is impossible
@@EV-qu2lb I hope people like you realize that constant positivity is worse than constant negativity. Without people calling out the choices made the game will grow slower. Nobody is too quick to say anything bad about the game, they are just in time.
I really like the mori, even if it isn’t super flashy, its so character accurate. Reminds me a lot of the Alien: Isolation death scenes
Not accurate at all. The headbite is not supposed to go all the way through and kill you, it's supposed to remove specific parts of the brain, leaving you paralyzed for easy facehugging
@@NotPork🤓 'well ackshually' that has been the xeno's bite in multiple games, you see face huggers here???
@@NotPork well for one, the mori is very similar to the predators death in AVP and two, there are no face huggers in the game. So yes it is pretty accurate
@@NotPork The runner in Alien 3 headbites a prisoner after he closed a door and you can literally see his giblets blasting through that door's window.
The xenomorph in Alien: Covenant kills a showering man from behind and you can see the inner jaws busting through the guy's mouth.
Both predators killed by the grid xenomorph in AvP are killed in similar manners, you can see Chopper's blood hitting the ground near Alexa, and you can see blood blasting from behind Celtic's head as he's killed off.
Also, the headbites are purely for dispatching targets lmao, it only paralyzes a guy in Resurrection for a gag before he dies. The only time it happens in the whole series iirc.
It’s entirely accurate. What you said is never once addressed in lore, neither in the mainline stories or in the eu comics/books or games. Adding to that there’s be no feasible way for it to use its pharyngeal jaw on a head bite purely for incapacitating prey. The size and shape paired with cutting teeth are lethal enough. Add to that the force needed to pierce a skull and the force the thing launches at and it would render the prey flat out dead more often than not. If not through hemorrhaging then through the sheer amount of energy transfer liquifying the prey’s brain in its skull. Even if prey miraculously survived the initial blow the risk of them dying from complications afterwards, possibly during or post implantation, is far too high for it not to be a massive risk.. Simply put it would be entirely unfeasible to use a head bite for anything BUT a killing stroke when crippling limbs works far better.
Everyone had been waiting for this and let's agree, Behavior delivered. Balancing issues aside, visually, atmospherically, animations, map... all of it is pretty top-notch. If the killer and perks need balancing that can slowly be worked on with time. Also that tunnel system feels great. I can see lots of people falling in love with that killer.
I mean it’s a Xenomorph. Balance kinda took a backseat for authenticity.
While I'm a little sad that the new map is not a deralict spaceship floating in space i'm still super excited that we even got this chapter at all
I suppose they're trying to avoid an exclusively indoor map for the moment like Midwich, since the Nostromo iirc isn't exactly spacious to accommodate good gameplay. Which makes me wish we had a Necromorph Killer with the Sprawl as a map...
@@kielbasamage Actually Nostromo is enormous. You can fit 5 DbD maps in it
@@kingol4801Huh. I figured it was largely narrow hallways connecting to larger chambers, since it inspired things like the Ishimura. Also because being trapped in a five foot wide corridor with a tweaking alien jaguar is scarier than a twelve foot wide maintenance tunnel.
Same here. Imagine the nest from Isolation making an appearance. That’d be terrifying and cool to play in.
@@KeepItWilde I'm actually surprised they didn't use stuff from Isolation (or even Fireteam Elite), it seems pretty easy to yoink. But the map is still really cool

I love how they integrated the acid blood, but I'm surprised there's no facehuggers. Coulda been neat to have a mechanic that spawns a stationary queen with an ovipositor that poops eggs you can cart around and place like turrets of your own that'd spawn facehuggers on any survivors that got too close that'd chase them around like a mix between Nemesis' zombies and Victor. It's also pretty neat there's an add-on that essentially gives your tail built-in spoopy butter.
Did I miss something? Acid blood… where?
@@zerekblackford6094it's one of the Xenomorph's add-ons
@@zerekblackford6094 iri add-on
for sure agreed, but to be fair, i think everyone is quite impressed with the whole alien chapter so far, so let’s not ask for more in the moment
I think the chapter is a focus on Alien itself, not the species as a whole
That tunnel mechanic really feels like how Demogorgon's portals should've been
My thought too tbh
I love this!
Kinda wish there was a facehugger part in either the mori or the power
but still, great chapter all around!
A facehugger would be an insta-kill no ifs, ands or buts about it, but that would make for a unique Basement kill idea... of course Behavior isn't going to do that because Behavior.
They could do facehuggers while survivor is hanged and wish they change the hook to the sticky thing like in the movie. Am I right? Haha😅
It could be a perk where if the alien breaks a gen, the next survivor who will touch it will be jumped by a facehugger and then a few seconds later, it will come out and they will get injured or some other debuff.
I don’t think you’d have to make it insta kill. Could just be an ALT hook stage like pyramid head or something like the pig. Weyland Yutani could provide auto docs to remove infections. Hell they could of even done a stage based killed with xeno a lot of options but this okay.
@@yeetskeet7345 Yes it WOULD have to be an insta kill, you do realize what a Facehugger does when it catches a host CORRECT?
Edit: oh, and you CAN'T remove the embryos, they can't be fully cured the ONLY and I mean this literally, ONLY time they were removed and didn't result in a chestburst were in crossover comics which involved other fictional characters like Batman, Superman, etc.
I hope they add a "working joe", either as an Easter egg or an outfit, they were so scary and I'd love to see them in dbd

I can't wait!!!
I'm more surprised it's real, I swear when I stopped playing the game (and prob still won't till cross-save gets added) they were saying that xenomorph would never be added because of like, technical limitations or smthn, granted I also stopped playing a bit before pinhead was added, so it's been a while, but still
As someone who purposefully avoids spoilers, I’m SUPER hyped about this new ptb!
Rapid brutality with STBL will be extremely interesting especially on killers that have a special attack that can break pallets (nemesis, demo, etc.)
i wanna know if thisll stack with Frenzy on Legion
I have a build with waterlogged shoe on hag rn that uses dark devotion and play with your food and I'm very interested in seeing if the new perk will be good with that setup
@@dragonfireinfernus336Legion's frenzy attack counts as a special hit, not a basic attack.
@@leiah6514actually devs said otherwise in a question asked a month or 2 ago.
Was thinking about this combo as well. Will be interesting to see.
I LOVE how he can essentially crawl through ‘vents’. It stays true to his depiction in games and the original movie, always crawling under or overhead.
But I wonder how it would work on maps like Midwich…
or RPD, tbh. all of these multi level maps must be interesting
Either it will break physics or it will only work on the ground floor. Someone will probably have a video out soon anyway
@@textoffender3410 if it only works on the ground floor, that's going to be quite rough. Essentially limiting Xeno to basically being a discount Nemesis
Otz already tested, it works like normal
I think the exit/entrance tunnels will prob be by walls, and you crawl up the walls or smth on multi lvl maps
Live note: you can mark stations before entering them. He just noted it on the livestream
It seems to be pretty helpful for marking which way you wanna come out of.
what does it do?? if you know
@@veIIamina marks a station you can emerge from. It also provides a guided yellow line to provide you the shortest route, like gps
The whole sub-map when teleporting is absolutely insane
I really like the killer and survivor a lot, but I think the map is my favorite part. It's a nice combo of indoors and outdoors and a ton of fun secrets!
I'm absolutely loving the direction the new killers are taking, being more interactive, Dredge with Lockers, Knight with Guards, Skull Merchant with Drones, Singularity with Biopods, and now Xenomorph with Turrets, regardless of how they translate in-game, it's more fun than going from pallet to pallet and playing mindgames.
Next patch, survivors get Glocks.
Yeah man that's called lack of creativity, it's basically rhe same teleportation that's being used with almost every new killer, and the worst part is that it's a power that 100% of the killer that gets it, it usually turns out to be weak or very hard to use, and when you managed to play good with it, it's not very rewarding like nurse's blink, it's basically a "get close to survivor and then suffer trying to kill him like a m1 killer", at least xeno has that tail attack so that + teleportation might get him to tier A i guess, but still sad, they could make something bigger with him.
@@boartank AK47S AND RPGS
Well if you think about it, it'd kinda work for Jason....
Skull merchant was a bad example but I agree with the rest
I love the way Otz says Xenomorph, This is all so amazing. I'm so damn happy about this, I can't say enough how much joy it brings me, Alien has always been super special to me and i know everyone is gonna be playing alien but i really am just so damn excited to play as it, strange they didn't get Sigourney's likeness for Ripley given in fortnite they did.
It is how you would pronunciate on Latin based languages, so it makes sense
When I got the notification I honestly thought it was fake, the fact that the Xenomorph and Ripley are actually here is insane. The amount of love and detail BHVR put into this chapter really shows, I can only imagine how cool it is for a really big Alien fan!
@@xmangle5382 No, it is not. Otzdarva just mispronounced it, that is not at all how it would be pronounced in spanish. Can't say for other romance languages but for spanish at least, you are wrong
@@zaga9602 You are just as wrong as them. The fact that you're referring to the spanish language as if it had a universal pronounciation is already enough to know you have no idea what you're talking about. There are literal dozens of books on how the pronounciation consonants at the beginning of words deviated wildly from country to country. In the case of "Y", as it doubles as a vowel, there's so much of different between regions that the instinctive reading a native speaker of spanish associates with the letter is essentially dependent on upbringing more than anything. Not to mention the whole can of worms of the "S" sound, where it varies from a hard, doubled sound to inaudible. While you're free to argue that the "X" sound in Xenomorph would sound closer to the anglophone "zee" than to the "she" that Otz used if read akin to the most popular pronunciation patterns of the language, it is ridiculous to say that the "se" or "ce" sounds would be a "correct mispronounciation", especially when not accounting for where Otz is from within Spain or for his current life in Andorra. Also, while not relevant here, there are, in fact, regions that speak romance languages where this is the expected phonem deviation associated with this X, especially in South America.
@@xmangle5382 That's absolutely not how we pronounce it in French.
The locker perk seems OP when used on wesker with distressing, basically barbeque but closer distance. It actually can be paired with barbeque for ultimate aura reading. Gotta test it out
Yeah but these survivor perks are going to be pretty insane with good builds too. No sprinting foot steps is huge, pair that with something like lightweight, Dance with me, Calm Spirit, Distortion, etc and you’ve got an awesome stealth build.
The trapped pallets is hilarious AND useful. Pair it with blast mine to punish gen kicks and pallet breaks, add in Yui’s perk to pick up pallets and you’ve got some extremely fun META break perks.
@@nathangothan601 i barely see any people who run calm spirit, but i suppose it is one way to do it. They still get blindness so no aura reading if you're still close to the hook, which basically kills kindred or OoO value on solo queue. And beside, with wesker, you can vault pallets with your ability, mostly negating it with the build i proposed. (Yeah i do agree it is fun though, basically blast mine on pallets lol)
I do see a problem - if you have something like a shack pallet +
Dance with Me, quick and quiet, any means necessary/lithe and chemical trap with a flashlight would be a very interesting build with baiting the killers to break a god pallet or get a quick getaway ( Lithe to get away quickly, any means necessary to fake climbing the pallet and potentially raise it later with a trap on, the choice is yours). You stun them, flashlight blind, fast vault with quick and quiet + dance with me and you basically disappear. If the killer decides to break the pallet thinking you're still nearby and because it's a good pallet to break, they trigger the trap and lose any chance to catch up with you
in huntress 👀
i have no perks to replace it with tho...
@@nathangothan601The no foot steps perk is going to destroy some killers because that is all they do is listen for the footsteps.🦶
It can be absolutely good tho if paired with Iron Maiden and Darkness Revealed in any killer who has some relation to lockers, like Trickster or Huntress.
I love the fact that you can aim the tail up and down and around. It's good because of it's range but it can be easy to miss with a long miss cooldown
Selecting the station shows you the path to it when you're in the tunnels. I'm guessing that's why you're able to select them outside the tunnels so you can preselect which distant station to path to from whatever other station you use
That's an absolutely beautiful map.
Also I am happy that BHVR is making more brutal moris compared to the utter disappointment of mori they gave for Skull Merchant
the only effort they made with her was making her ass fat 😭🔥
I personally think the mori is fine. Not anything to write home about. Moris don’t need to have brutal gore or flashy animation. I like they tried just something more cinematic with hers at least. I personally enjoy Skull Merchant though and I understand why others don’t.

I’m very excited to see the sci-fi horror genre in DBD, and finally, we have xenomorphs in game, this chapter is amazing
2 months before this killer released I had a dream playing as a survivor against him. I had an astronaut suit on and other crew mates as survivors. The alien would travel through sludge and power lines on the dark mucky ground. In the dream he could also clone himself, having two smaller versions to also hunt us down. We were on a spaceship with cold blue colors. Seeing Alien actually be released 2 months later after was so trippy to me. I knew no one would believe me if I said it, plus it's not like something you wouldn't see coming. Aliens is a horror character after all. However, today I decided to actually look at his kit - with tunneling ability that looks almost exactly like how it worked in my dream blows my mind. I feel like someone dug through my head or I saw the future. It's so trippy seeing a dream become a reality. I have no proof, and you don't have to believe this, I just needed to vent it out. Such a coincidence XD
Genuinely may actually get this game just to buy him tbh. Don't care how good overall he is, or that I know very little about this game. He looks sick
It's an asymmetrical, cat-and-mouse type of game. Personally, it was at its most fun when I knew nothing about how the game works, so maybe as a new player you'll get a good kick out of you first bunch of matches
It’s a really fun game with friends and fyi Xeno seems to be on the stronger side of killers. Not top tier but definitely decent

100% would recommend, love this game
@@Clam_Chowder1995 id only recommend this game to someone that has 3 other mates, and theyre looking to win games. thats the main audience
They really went all out on this dlc, it looks amazing, this is probably the best dlc we’ve ever had with the coolest killer we’ve ever had
This feels so surreal to me for some reason. It's kinda crazy to actually see the Alien in DBD. I'm so hyped :D
Fun fact: The Alien's (Xenomorph) mori is a homage to the Alien vs. Predator scene where Chopper was ambushed by the Alien (Grid).
It seems like they are hinting at predator being the next killer, there's quite a few predator references with this update so mabey we see predator and arnald next, which would be amazing.
@@darth9302 next chapter it s only killer
The Xenomorph killed people using its little mouth way before AvP was made though.
@@XSpaceYetiX true, but the mori was basically a recreation of that scene from AvP.
@@darth9302 Not sure unfortunately.
Lot of people have pointed out that Skull Merchant bears a lot of uncanny resemblances aesthetically to Predator, and there's musings that they tried and failed to get a crossover, and then had to recycle the model into something else.
That Mori was exactly how I hoped it would be
If there’s a new chapter, Otz is on the job.
Imagine if they get to make a blighted skin for the xenomorph, absolutely terrifying
My *only* complaint is the lack of Sigourney Weaver, would've been perfect if we had the best final girl back
hey Otz there is actually an easter egg, you can se randomly the cat if you open a locker as a Hellen ripley, and there is a room with a facehugger.
Unbelievably good design, the map is incredible, what a chapter.
You can tell the effort and time that was poured into this. Shows that the singularity chapter was to tide us over while we waited for this release.
More than happy for that to be the release philosophy.
Considering how long we have waited for the xenomorph, this feels like well worth the wait. If we get an original killer that's half as cool then DBD is gonna pop off! Hope we get more beasty killers so we hace a category of killers called "the beasty bois"
I've loved Alien since I was around 13/14 years old and now the Xenomorph is getting added to dbd and it makes me happy how they gave the alien's acidic blood it's rarity and ability, an amazing choice! Can't wait to play them!
Everything is just so nice. Imagine if every chapter release would be like this.
Rapid brutality and that one singularity perk where you down a survivor and the other ones get hindered could be an absolute nasty combo and even combining that with infectious fright on top of it. You down a survivor and hear the screams of nearby slowed survivors whilst your faster than you are on top of that!
So, so, so looking forward to this! It looks AWESOME! One suggestion (and I know that this is a pipe dream), but it would be awesome some chests or turret pods were randomly booby-trapped by hiding facehuggers. The survivor has a limited time to get the FH removed by another survivor before the FH gets full purchase on their face --> KO via chestburster (much like the Pig's reverse bear trap mechanic).
It was an absolute BLAST being there live! All the Easter eggs, puzzles, and secrets on the new map is insane too.
It’s so cool to actually see the underground world when teleporting. Though I worry that this killer is designed entirely around “tunneling.”

We didn’t really see how it worked too well in this but I would really like it if you could see survivors in the tunnels. Like if they’re within 5 metres of you in the runner or something you see their aura and they don’t know you’re there. Obviously you’d have to emerge from a tunnel but I think otherwise the tunnels are not super great, it adds a very good stealth aspect to it
The chase music sounds like windshield wipers and i love it!
Oh fun fact, the lobby animation where the alien crawls down from the top is the same animation from Alien Isolation. Specifically when we first meet the alien and it crawls down from the vent infront of us.
It’s mori is a reference to how the Alien kills Chopper (the 1st Predator).
Just a shame we don’t see any facehuggers
