New Killer - The Houndmaster
Killer Power - Scent of Blood The Houndmaster and her dog operate as one. Her commands are followed without question or delay.

Special Ability: Chase
The Chase Command sends the dog out at high speed. Pressing the Power button again redirects the Chase, pivoting the dog's path. When the dog catches a Survivor, the dog starts a Grab. The Survivor becomes Hindered and is pulled toward The Houndmaster. The Survivor can get free by stunning the dog or can be rescued by another Survivor. Grabs that end without Injury leave the Survivor Hindered. Grab duration is shorter for Survivors with the Endurance status effect.

Special Ability: Search
The Search Command sends the dog to a target location, creating a Search Path. It has its own lullaby and, as it moves, its Houndsense radius rises over... Read more

The beloved 2v8 mode is returning! A lot has changed and since the first version – so much that we couldn’t squeeze it into our regular Developer Update – and we’re going to dive into all of it today.

Before we get started, it’s important to note that everything below only applies to the 2v8 mode and will not affect regular matches.


Cages

• [CHANGE] Survivors are now sent to cages after being picked up by a Killer rather than by stomping.
  
• [CHANGE] When a Survivor is near a caged Survivor, the cage will no longer move even if there is a Killer nearby.
  
• [CHANGE] Survivors perform the unhook action 15% faster while a Killer is nearby.

Dev note: Flashlights didn’t ser... Read more

• Progress & save data information has been copied from the Live game to our PTB servers on 28th October. Please note that players will be able to progress for the duration of the PTB, but none of that progress will make it back to the Live version of the game.
  
  
• Players will once again receive 12,500 Auric Cells on the PTB to explore Outfits and Characters in the Store. Both Auric Cells and purchases made on the PTB Build will not transfer to the Live Build.

We’ve been flooded with requests for 2v8 data, so we’re happy to deliver! For starters, over seven million matches of 2v8 were played during the event period. (For context, this is a lot!)

We’ve been hard at work on the second version of 2v8, so keep your eyes peeled for more information about the mode in the coming weeks.


If The Huntress’ lullaby haunts your dreams, it’s probably because she was the most popular Killer this time around.

You’re probably wondering which Killers made the deadliest teams, so we crunched the numbers and found the top three pairs.

Not to be left out, we’ve also grabbed the numbers for all the Survivor Classes. Escapist was the clear the favourite, though all Classes saw a decent amount of pla... Read more
