Dead By Daylight is set for another big month. Per the February 2025 roadmap so far, we have leaked new skins to anticipate, along with a PTB that will star the mysterious Chapter 35 killer. Leaks have also revealed the return of 2v8 mode with Resident Evil a huge part of its comeback. While BeHaviour hasn’t officially announced anything as of writing, DBD leaks have revealed the skills for new 2v8 killers Nemesis, Wesker, and Legion.
Dead By Daylight 2v8 Nemesis and Wesker skills
Below are the leaked innate skills for Nemesis and Wesker in Dead By Daylight 2v8 mode, per Wazzup on the DBDLeaks Discord:
Nemesis innate skills:
- Increases Zombie line of sight to 18 meters and 226 degrees
- Contaminated Survivors are Hindered for 3 seconds
- Decreases Zombie spawn time by 7.5 seconds

In addition to all of the above innate skills, the Resident Evil-theme will bring yellow and green herbs to 2v8 mode. These spawn around the map, and they will provide the following effects:
Green herb (4 spawns in total):
