The Knight

The Knight alone is a terrifying monster on the battlefield, but with his loyal Guards, he is nearly unstoppable. Together, the Guardia Compagnia fights for their own freedom, killing anyone who gets in their way.

SPECIAL ABILITY: GUARD SUMMON

Tap the Power button to activate Guard Summon mode. Once activated, move around to create a Patrol Path. While in Guard Summon mode, you can aim at a generator in progress, a dropped pallet or a breakable wall and tap the Attack button. This will summon a Guard to damage or special-break the selected object.

You can also tap the Power button or drain the Power Gauge completely to end the Guard Summon mode. This will summon a Guard who will follow and Patrol the created Path. The longer the Patrol Path, the longer the Guard's Hunt Timer will be. There are three Guards that can be summoned one at a time: The Carnifex, who can damage or special-break objects faster; The Assassin, who moves faster during the Hunt; and The Jailer, who patrols and hunts longer, and is better at detection.

GUARD SPECIAL ABILITY: THE HUNT

While a Guard is patrolling, he can spot and detect Survivors. If a Survivor is detected, the Guard will move to their location, leave a Standard on the ground, and start Hunting the Survivor for a set amount of time. The Survivor can escape a Guard by unhooking another Survivor, grabbing the Standard, or surviving until the Hunt timer ends. If the Survivor is successfully attacked by the Guard or The Knight, the Guard will disappear. When a Guard downs a Survivor, The Knight receives a Killer Instinct notification.
