Hey guys. Am brand new to this game so forgive me upfront if this is an obvious answer.

I wanted to buy some characters or skins (not sure which they are preferred to be called) but wanted to make sure of something. If you buy a character or a killer: do the other players or your friends have to have that same character to play together?

      To add on to the great answer you got, I have found as a somewhat recent player that there are a few youtubers who have excellent resources for players.

      Otzdarva is of course, the largest DBD creator I know of. He has his own website with incredibly detailed and complete info for less experienced players. In particular he has some videos and guides on which killers and survivors have the best teachable perks to start out with.

      Less well known, but not by that much Kyto has a great channel with videos about which teachable perks to go for.

      A few other popular creators who I have less experience with their content or aren’t specifically informative: Hens333, Deere, JRM, Eevoh, Ayrun, SpookyLoopz, Naymeti, Scott Jund

        Thanks! I’ll check these out for some additional info. I don’t really play anything conpetitively, more just for the fun of it.

        I have played a few matches now as Chuckey and had loads of fun. Did I win? Naw, but just the joy of seeing the little guy chasing people around the screen stabbing at them and laughing - had me rolling. I loved those movies when they came out years ago.

        I may grab another one or two horror classics characters like as well.
