The end of the year is almost upon us, but we’ve still got news to share. In this Developer Update, we’ll cover some of the new features and balance changes making their way to the game in our next update, including a new customization option, a sizeable update to an existing Killer, and gameplay passes for two Realms.



Player Cards
A new customization option has arrived! Player Cards are decorative banners and badges which appear in the top right corner of various menus. Your Player Card will also be featured in the post-match scoreboard so other players can see them as well.



Banners and badges can be mixed and matched as you please, and higher rarity ones will be more detailed with some even being animated. Like other c... Read more

Release Schedule

• Update releases: 11AM ET

Content Killer - The Skull Merchant

• Reworked Low Power Mode Add-on:
  
  • Now decreases Drone Rotation speed by 100%, effectively stopping rotation.
    
  • No longer decreases Power cooldown by 25%.

Environment/Maps The maximum number of pallets spawned in the Shattered Square Map has been increased to 18 to prevent large areas of the map from spawning with no pallets. The quality of the loops were also updated to reduce their safety. We hope this adds better gameplay for both roles.

Note: The map is not guaranteed to generate with this many pallets and will instead prematurely stop spawning pallets if the minimum pallet requirement has been reached and there are no more valid positions far enough from other... Read more

It’s time to celebrate Halloween in Dead by Daylight with the spookiest Event of the year. In case you missed our recent Livestream, we’ve got you covered with this complete guide to all things Haunted by Daylight.



Atmosphere To Die For From October 18th, 2:00 PM ET – November 6th, 2:00 PM ET, Haunted by Daylight will take over the Entity’s Realm, tainting it with the mysterious presence of the Void Realm. Not only that, but familiar sights like Generators and Hooks will also undergo a spooky transformation.

Uncover lost memories for The Oni, Feng Min, and the House of Arkham. Progress through the Rift and beyond, completing brand-new gameplay Challenges and earning toy-themed Cosmetic rewards for The Oni, Feng Min, The Dredge, Adam Francis, and more. It’s all waiting in The Archives.



NEW MEMORIES The dark taint of dishonour seeps into the soil. Before he was The Oni, he was Kazan Yamaoka, a fearsome warrior of unmatched brutality. And what happens when the game is over? For Feng Min, caught between competitive e-sports and familial responsibilities, the answer is shrouded in haze. Finally, continue the saga of the House of Arkham, plunging ever deeper into the strange and magnificent horrors of the unknown.

Greetings ghosts and ghouls! We’re back with another Developer Update, this time covering all the adjustments on the way following our last Public Test Build (PTB). We unveiled some major changes during this PTB, including the new Anti Face-Camping mechanic and an overhaul to The Skull Merchant’s Power. You’ve left us with plenty of feedback to go through, and we’d like to share a few tweaks we’ll be making when this update goes live (and a few more in the minor patches that follow)!


The Skull Merchant
With the overhaul on the PTB, we set our sights on the frustrating strategies that emerged due to how The Skull Merchant’s Power worked. While we’re pleased to see that she was no longer a gen-defending powerhouse, we noticed many felt that she was left in a weaker state. The intent of this update is not to weaken this Killer overall, so we’ll be making a serie... Read more
