Dead by Daylight Springtrap (FNAF): Special Features

Here are some special things that you will be getting in this game:

Springtrap Killer Power

Springtrap, also known as “The Animatronic,” was once known as William Afton. He was an inventor who turned into a serial killer after his family got involved in a tragic incident. In the game, it will have a special power called Fazbear’s Fright that brings fun and spooky elements from Five Nights at Freddy’s, as per Screen Rant. His main weapon is a fire axe. If you choose to have him hit the survivors, this weapon will be useful. You will need to throw it at survivors. If the axe hits them, it sticks to them. The survivors then will not be healed until the stick is removed.

Springtrap Perks

It comes with three unique perks in Dead by Daylight, which are mentioned below:

• Help Wanted: Once you complete the compromised generator, your successful basic attack cooldowns are 25/25/25% faster for 40/50/60 seconds.
• Phantom Fear: When a Survivor present in your Terror Radius looks at you, they scream. Due to this, you get to see their aura for 2/2/2 seconds. 
• Haywire: When the exit gate is switched, it will lose at least 50% of its progress and also regress to 40% of its usual opening speed. During this regression, survivors will see the exit gate lights flicker as a warning.

Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Map

The developers of the game wanted an iconic and meaningful setting for the Five Nights at Freddy’s map. So they chose Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza from the first game. This version of the family-friendly restaurant is full of fun details and Easter eggs. The team had to keep a few things in mind:

• There is enough open space for survivors to run and complete tasks
• Maintaining the creepy feeling of the original FNAF games. 

In short, even though the gameplay is different, the team still makes sure that you get the same tense and spooky vibes. To help you find the new map easily, Behaviour Interactive added a special queue that only loads the pizzeria. You can use it to find different maps in the future. 

Security Cameras & Doors

It was clear that the game would not be completed without having the famous security office. Thus, the makers made sure to include it in the game. As soon as you choose Springtrap as the killer, you will see seven Security Doors appear across the map. Both you and the survivor can use all the doors to move around through the office. However, now comes the best part: if you and the survivor enter the room at the same time, you can instantly grab the survivor. In addition to that, even if the power runs out, you can still manage to use the cameras.
