People of the Fog,

It has been just over a week since Ghost Face debuted on the Player Test Build (PTB). Since then, we have been closely monitoring his performance and reading through your feedback. Upon further consideration, we determined that it would be best to address the state of Ghost Face before the official release.

Shortly after reaching the PTB, we noticed many people were experiencing issues while playing Ghost Face. Survivors were able to detect the Killer too easily, making it difficult to take advantage of his power. With your feedback, we have identified several issues and listed some of the changes we h...

People of the Fog,

The Dead by Daylight team is happy to announce the newest addition to our roster of Killers; none other than Ghost Face himself.

NEW KILLER: THE GHOST FACE

The Ghost Face, more commonly known as Jed Olsen to his acquaintances, is a devious Killer that stalks his victims from the shadows. Two of his victims would report being followed on their way home just days before their deaths. He could watch the same victim for weeks, monitoring their routine while snapping photos and planning his entry. When he got the urge to kill, he would visit the most vulnerable victim on his list and quickly make hi...

People of the Fog, 

We’re all eagerly awaiting our Third Anniversary Livestream this Friday, which will be full of reveals, laughs, and information on the coming year. In the meantime, we have a few announcements that we are excited to share with you. 

GHOST FACE IS COMING TO DEAD BY DAYLIGHT 

The Dead by Daylight team is proud to announce that "The ICON of Halloween"®, Ghost Face®, will be joining the roster of killers. Ghost Face is a natural stalker, lurking in the shroud of night, who observes his victims before striking. 

Acquaintances are a dangerous deception. The workplace is filled with them; strangers seated beside us, five days a week. A distant familiarity grown from habit; the blanks filled with assumptions as we forget how little we know, until proven otherwise. No one thought the man seated on their left could be responsible for the murder of a dozen people. Until proven otherwise. The Ghost Face® took full advantage of that fact, blending in...

Earlier this week, we asked you what statistics you would like to see. Since then, we have collected data on some of the most popular requests and designed some fancy graphics for them. There are a few things to note:

• This data does not include the recent PTB.
• Data involving rank was collected shortly before a rank reset (April 1st to April 7th).
• These are very general statistics, so use caution before drawing any conclusions.

Average Party Size

This is the overall average, between all ranks and platforms, of how many other Survivors players are queuing up with. More than half of the total Survivors are playing solo, while only 3-6% are playing in a full Survive With Friends group. This is based on the group size out of the total number of matches.

THIS WEEKEND, DEAD BY DAYLIGHT IS PLAY FOR FREE ON ALL PLATFORMS AND UP TO 60% ON SALE.

PATCH NOTES 2.6.3

FEATURES & CONTENT:

ATTENTION

The new character, Ash J. Williams is available with Auric Cells in the in-game store as soon as the update is released.

BALANCE:

• The Enduring perk now affects Decisive Strike's stun.

With feedback from the PTB and Live, we have changed the Decisive Strike stun time to 5 seconds, with the Survivor being free to move after 1 second. This should allow for the survivor to have ~ 4 seconds at a base to try and escape the killer after the stun is successful. When Enduring is used, the stun wi...
