The Hillbilly Powers and Add-ons
On this page, you'll find an explanation of The Hillbilly's power and a list of all available add-ons for the Chainsaw currently in Dead by Daylight.
The Hillbilly's Power: Chainsaw
The Chainsaw allows the Hillbilly to perform a Chainsaw Sprint. Players can activate this by revving the Chainsaw. There is, however, an overheat meter that when filled, will mean that the Chainsaw cannot be used until it has cooled down.
