Nicolas Cage is now officially playable in the PC-based Public Test Build of Dead by Daylight, ahead of his arrival on PS5 and PS4 on 25th July. As previously announced, the actor will be playing a fictionalised version of himself, which is particularly amusing. “While on set filming the role of a lifetime, his performance summoned The Entity, a malevolent being of incomprehensible power,” the press release reads.
Like most Survivors in the game, Cage comes with three new perks: Dramaturgy allows his instincts to take over in moments of high intensity; Scene Partner enables him to glean a greater insight into Killers’ next moves; and Plot Twist allows him to use his “second-to-none acting ability to get deeper into character than ever before”. That latter one allows you to effectively fake your own death, which is interesting.

Even if I don't care for this game it's pretty cool seeing Cage in a game for the first time
@KaijuKaiser well a huge part of this game is bringing in movie characters. So it makes a lot of sense to have cage in it. Also I thought it worked in Death Stranding although I know that game was devisive.
Wow! He looks just dreamy!
Nic Cage’s career IS dead by daylight.
@DETfaninATL Go watch Mandy and one of my older favorites 8mm he also has quite a few nice movies lately.
@Flaming_Kaiser No doubt he has a few decent flicks earlier in his career but I’d be curious to hear what you think is decent that he’s been in lately. I can’t think of a single thing, myself.
