Performance Issues
This update contains a few changes that should improve performance for many players. That said, some performance issues still remain. The team is still actively working on more fixes across multiple platforms, including consoles. We will be monitoring the changes made within this bugfix patch for stability.

We're hoping this update will also help performance on the Raccoon City Police Station map, but we want to ensure it is stable enough to be reinstated for live games. We will be monitoring how the map is doing in custom games with these new changes and provide you all with an update soon.

Thank you for your patience as we continue to work on further improvements to the game’s performance!


Switch Performance
We have reduced the overall visual quality on Switch to help improve performance. The game may still crash when played on the Raccoon City Police Station map, but less frequently. Rest assured, we are still work... Read more

Descend Beyond is a new Chapter for Dead by Daylight.

Talbot Grimes – The Blight– was once a bright and ambitious chemist who sought to enhance humanity through the use of his compounds, only to become a victim of his own ambitions. After his research was stolen, The Blight was lured into the Realm of the Entity by the promise of new, forbidden knowledge.

The new Survivor is Felix Richter, an eccentric architect with a unique vision. Returning to the mysterious island where his father had disappeared, Felix descended into the darkness beyond and was never seen again.

The Descend Beyond Chapter includes:

• A new Killer: The Blight
  
  
• A new Survivor: Felix Richter
  
  
• An exclusive item for Felix

NEW CHAPTER Unleash The Blight, an alchemist consumed by his research. Ambition brought him to the Entity's realm but his hunger for power destroyed him. Mutated and mad, his power, Blighted Corruption, provides him with unnatural abilities to quickly pursue and ambush Survivors.

Plan your escape with Felix Richter, a successful architect who was torn away from his lavish lifestyle. Resourceful and bold, he has clever methods to stand against the oncoming evil and plan out the one thing that matters to him most—returning home.

Note: Players will have to quit and restart the game for the change to take effect. #deadbydaylight #DBD

With regards to Error 111/112, we apologize that this error is still affecting our players and can assure you it is receiving our attention.

The team is working on finding a solution as a matter of urgency. We have tried to implement a quick fix with our most recent patch, but this didn't pan out as we had hoped.

Unfortunately, this does mean we won't be able to fix this for you today. We do not yet have an ETA to share as to when this issue will be resolved.

We know these errors are incredibly frustrating, but rest assured the team are putting all their effort into finding a solution.

Apologies for the situation, and thank you for your patience.
